The Planning Commission has reviewed the conditional uses allowed in the <br /> residential zoning districts and found that some of the uses are out o date and difficult to understand, <br /> some need additional controls,some are more appropriate as accessory uses,and some are no longer <br /> appropriate at all. . <br /> The major change is to restrict pubic barns and stables,riding academies, stock farms,and commercial <br /> greenhouses to the Rural Residential zoning districts and to restrict gun clubs and outdoor recreational <br /> cubs to the RR-lA district.They are currently allowed as conditional uses in all residential districts. The <br /> Planning Commission judged them to be incompatible with the intents and purposes o the Residential and <br /> Lakeshore Residential zoning districts. The gun club on Sixth Avenue North would become non- <br /> confornung but could continue to operate as is indefinitely. No other existing use is expected to become <br /> non-confornung because of these particular changes. <br /> The tables included in the packet illustrate the uses currently allowed under the code and the changes that <br /> would occur with the amendments. The City Council will also review the list of changes,make any <br /> desired alterations, and then direct the City Attorney to incorporate the changes into the ordinance,which <br /> will be brought to the Council for formal adoption at a subsequent meeting. <br /> Curtis noted that hospitals and nursing homes have been eliminated and will now be covered under the <br /> other proposed amendment heard earlier this evening. <br /> Chair Kang opened the public hearing at 8:32 p.m. <br /> There were no public comments regarding this application. <br /> Chair Kang closed the public hearing at 8:32 p.m. <br /> Schoenzeit moved,Leskinen seconded,to recommend approval of Application#10-3454,City of <br /> Orono,Amendments to Orono Code Chapter 78,Article IV,Relating to Conditional Uses in <br /> Residential Zoning Districts.
