Commission concluded that the mere sale and service of snowmobiles may be a r^oMble winter use for the marinas with the strong feeling ihat snowmobile rental Ll using marinas as a base of operation for snowmobiling is not appropriate. Questions were raiid as to the need for demonstrating and testing snowmobiles as part of a sales md serlke activitv. Plannmg Commission concluded that negative aspects ot such “tivitv can be reflated under existing codes regulating hours ot operation noise^, etc. Sales ^3 2 beer 'and cigarettes have been eliminated from the list ot allowed conditional uses. Sale of prepackaged food becomes an accessory' use. TSng Commission recommends that parking areas "need not be paved" but must have storm wate^ontSsT required by the goning code. The existing parking standards were fou.^ to be generallv adequate if adhered to. A requirement for one parking space for each thr« seats of aross seats of charter capacity is added to provide a standard tor that conditional use. Item 8(F) redefines the winter, summer and transition seasons, and requires of adequate parking during the transition seasons.

Employ^porng o?fsi.c and employ^ trespassing on private propeny have been a concern at at least one marina site. This section adds clarification that storage of boats, vehicles, equipment and materials is not allowed in any required vard. Most of the marinas have existing pavement encroachi g on one or more of their required vards. Enforcement of this section may have a serious impact on some marinas, and a plan for enforcement needs to be developed tor those properties whi have not been formally approved for "required yard variances.
