1. Notices,Rules,Etc. Richard Wilson; Presiding Officer, called the meeting to order at
6:16 pm, and asked commission members and staff to introduce themselves. Richard
Wilson asked staff to confirm that appropriate notices were given. Josie Hayes stated
notices were posted per state and local laws.
2. Townhome Regulations. There was general discussion regarding townhomes being
constructed immediately adjacent to single family sites and protecting those sites. The
discussion centered on the protections already built into the ordinances which are as
follows: SF Buffer yard provision in Table 7-2. (20 feet in PDD-TH1), SF privacy
protection in Note 8 to Table 7-4(b) [applicable to both side and rear yards] and
Transition protection(8 foot fence requirement in Article 8). ZPC then discussed how a
single family detached home can be built in a townhome district and built to 100% framed
area allowance for townhomes and construct three full story construction in townhome
districts. The ZPC determined that there was adequate protection in place to protect the
adjacent SF districts and no new regulations were warranted at this time.
3. Pervious Area. Debbie Scarcella stated staff received a request from a resident to review
the pervious area requirements in the front yard setbacks and determine if the regulations
need to reflect a requirement for those sites reaching the maximum pervious allowance in
the front yard(50%).Staff provided some site plans of existing homes with different
configuration as examples. There was general discussion regarding the site plans. The
ZPC asked staff to bring back pictures and additional site plans to the next meeting.
4. Property Maintenance Code. Staff informed the ZPC that the proposed amendments
would be submitted to them for consideration within the next few months regarding the
property maintenance regulations (high weeds and grass, stagnant water, grease
containment, etc.) and noise regulations. A brief discussion followed these items.
