Applicant was also advised that it was apparent that the majority of Council Members opined that the 38.4% appeared to be an excessive amount. The Planning Commission Chairman, who represented the Planning Commission at the Council meeting, also advised that it was the majority opinion of the Planning Commission that 38.4% was a reascnabie amount to hold the improvements at. The applicant advises in the addendum (Exhibit A) that the turn -around provided by the contractor was not adequate for their use and asks the Council to reconsider in light of the 40.9% of actual hardcover on the property. If the Council wishes to change the 38.4% allowance, then direct staff to amend the original resolution to include the revised amount.
