James Beiler came back to represent his Special Use Permit for a Farm Product Store and Misc. He revised his diagram with all of the property dimensions.
Chairman Donald Lamay reviewed Mr. Beilers’ Special Use Permit with the Board Members again – with the diagram being much easier to read – it was much clearer as to what Mr. Beilers’ plans were – space and parking would not be a problem.
Steve Freeman mentioned that at last month’s meeting he was concerned if there would be room to expand – now after seeing the new diagram he is no longer concerned. There will be room to expand.
Chairman Donald Lamay asked if the Planning Board Members had any questions or any other concerns with Mr. Beilers’ Special Use Permit. There were no other questions or concerns.
Mr. Beiler asked if there was going to be a Public Hearing.
There is no Public Hearing with a Class A Home Business.

Next the Board continued their discussion on the open Special Use Permits.
Chairman Donald Lamay mentioned to Jeff Johnson that his business seems to have changed – gotten bigger.
Jeff Johnson said yes it has. To supply the need, we added more tanks. No longer have sample tanks.
Dan Wolfe asked if he anticipated getting bigger.
Jeff Johnson – No, I have another location elsewhere.
Ed Michel asked for a description of property (site plan – where tanks are), what kind of materials he is using and an explanation of them.
Gary Daum – Basically we need an update (now versus then).
Jeff Johnson is going to fill out another Special Use Permit and get the information that we asked for.
Dan Wolfe is going to meet with and bring in Jeffs new updates and information.
The Planning Board will review it at the next meeting.
Chairman Donald Lamay asked Dan Wolfe if he has done any more inspections.
Dan Wolfe – Yes-went and inspected Cliff Kepners place (Monday Nov. 1, 2010). Changed his business name to Sunshine Gardens.
Chairman Donald Lamay – I will have Dawn change the business name on Cliff Kepners Special Use Permit to his new business name (Sunshine Gardens)
Lastly, the Planning Board discussed the camping trailer issue again.
Chairman Donald Lamay asked Rick Harmer if the camper issue was mentioned at the last Town Board meeting.
Rick Harmer – Have not had a chance – 1st priority was passing the budget.
The Planning Board looked over Steve Freeman’s revised copy of the Zoning Regulation sheet (Section 3. Article 7)
Richard Kurz asked Steve Freeman how he came up the amount of $500.
Steve Freeman – These were just thoughts – Doesn’t matter what the price is.
There was much mixed discussion on the camper issue.
Dan Wolfe mentioned if can’t come up with a compromise then do what the rest of the county does – not allow campers on unimproved lots.
Chairman Donald Lamay asked Steve Freeman to revise his copy of the Zoning Regulation sheet (Section 3. Article7) again and bring it back to next month’s meeting.
Round Table
Gary Daum asked about Country Contracting
Dan Wolfe is going to check the Zoning Regulation book and get back to the Planning Board. It’s just an office with a part time secretary and a salesman. Really no business is going on there.
NO FURTHER BUSINESS
