Mr. Barron picked up the discussion on the proposed revision of the Zoning Ordinance ~ere it was left at last meeting. It was done item by item and page by page. There was a big discusssion on special exceptions or "conditional uses", what should be handled this way and what should be permitted by each zone. Also there was a difference of opinion as to how and what should be handled by the Planning Board ahd what should be assigned to the Board of Appeals. It was generally agreed most of these cases shaid be done by the Board of Appeals with site planning of larger projects and any the Board of Appeals wanted help with to be done by the Planning Board. Raymond & May Associates will make the changes as outlined by both the Planning Board and Board~ Appeals in the new Zoning Ordinance. There was some discussion on experiences of other localities that had assigned too many duties to one Board. A final discussion on these assignments will be made at the next Master Plan Meeting. , . . Southold Town Master Plan Meeting -2- May 4, 1967 There was some discussion on the provision for Multiple Residence in the Rl District - (motels, cabins, trailer parks, hotels, etc.) Mr. Barron recommended they be by special exception or a "conditional use" permit. All boards a~ed they should not be by exception, but in a separate zone classification, and recommend a mininum of 3~ acres site for a motel or similiar operation. The R-2 District - with multiple residences was reviewed and agreed it was needed but should be limited toc~eas near business centers where people could walk to do shopping, etc. All agreed the "definition" section of the proposed Ordinance and the present Ordinance should be expanded as it does not cover anywhere near enough items. Mr. Barron will do this for the next meeting. There was a long discussion on the business zone uses and the limitation of residences in same. Most felt that the residences should be permitted in the "neighborhood" type business areas but probably kepcout of shopping cente&s, industrial areas, etc., or allowed by special exception or 'Condition use permits". It was recommended that certain "heavy" industrial uses be by "conditional use permits" with the same requirement for a special exception as present ordinance. The Town is to send Raymond and May Associates the present list of restrictions placed on gaSOline stations by the Board of Appeals when they grant a special exception. There was a long discussion on the marina, waterfront district, shipyards, marinas of all types, boat storage, buildings, use of shipyard construction facilities for other purposes in the "off season", slack times, etc. After much reviewing of operations of various yards in different parts of the Town it was generally agreed marinas and shipyards of all types should be permitted in business districts and the more &estricted types of marinas be permitted elsewhere with other than boat mooring facilities to be "conditional use permits". Theee was some discussion on setting up a "timetable" for finishing the Master Plan work and having hearings on various parts of it with Raymond & May Associates representatives present. Mr. Barron' will have at least five hand corrected copies of the Subdivision regulations ready for the next meeting so the Planning Board can hold a hearing o~em soon. . . . ," Southold Town Master Plan Meeting -3- May 4, 1967 Raymond 4 May Associates must be finished with their part of the "Package Deal" by July 1st of this year.
