Approved 6.5.24 798 be, to your point about putting it as a Conditional versus putting it in the GC or LMC with the stipulations, it would 799 most likely be easier and it would still most likely be in one of those districts in general... is that the understanding 800 for that Conditional Zoning? So, like it would already technically be in a commercial area because it couldn't be 801 in a residential area. 802 803 Cy Stober: Correct. 804 805 Beth Bronson: So, it would fall into 12, 13 and NC3 and NC4, EC5, you couldn't apply for it if it was R1, you 806 couldn't apply for it if it was—you could use agricultural, but— 807 808 Cy Stober: No, I mean, our agricultural zoning is Agricultural Residential- 809 810 Beth Bronson: Residential, exactly. I think that I would retract my recommendation that it would be those 811 specific commercial and leave it as a Conditional District in the sense that any applicant would already be in one 812 of those districts, it would just be conditional to the tobacco and hemp if there was an approval on this or 813 consensus. 814 815 Charity Kirk: A lot these stores are renters, they don't own the property, so that puts a burden on the 816 property owner and then the other thing is, is Conditional Zoning Districts cannot change the layout of stuff, so 817 they are set once it becomes a Conditional Zoning District. It's not flexible anymore. 818 819 Beth Bronson: If it's new construction, but if it's existing construction, then that's not gonna— 820 821 Cy Stober: But, no, Ms. Kirk is correct, if you have to get conditionally zoned, then your site plan would 822 reflect the existing structures and that would be what's approved. 823 824 Charity Kirk: Can't change anything until you go back through the whole process. 825 826 Cy Stober: You can have a phase plan that allows for future development and it can be confined to 827 areas. 828 829 Charity Kirk: If you have to plan for that future development, which is really challenging. 830 831 Cy Stober: Correct. 832 833 Charity Kirk: I mean, I'm more of the 12, 13, 1 think. 834 835 Cy Stober: That's, and so that is the determination of the Board and I'll— 836 837 Charity Kirk: I'm just going to put that out there. 838 839 Chris Johnston: Andl think that's the question that we have going forward, is where does that actually live? 1 840 guess Adam made a really great point which is are we wasting applicant's time if it at the end of this, the County 841 Commissioners have expressed to everyone we want this out of the County, we're wasting people's time and 842 money and effort, our time and everyone's time if the end point is the Health Board wants it out and the County 843 Commissioners want it out, like by putting it in a zone but leaving it Conditional, we're making everyone go 844 through a lot steps to end up with a deny that has been expressed by the County Commissioners, and if that is 845 the end goal, sticking it in an "I" or sticking it in one or two others isn't going to make a lick a difference, we're 846 going to be sitting here doing nothing. 847
