Resolution No. , A Resolution Recammendin A roval of the Amendment to the Text of the Zonin Ordinance to Allow Sma11 Engine 5a1es and Service as a Conditional Use in the C-5 Zone Chief Penicoak advised that this resolution was one of the previously passed resolutions, which had a Resolution of Intent passed at the last Planning Commission meeting, There followed a discussion on whether this item should fall under Section 17.46.020, Item F, pertaining to similar uses, or whether it should be listed as a conditional use under Section 17.46.030 as Item Z. It was decided that it is in the best interest of the citi- zens of Central Point to add items such as this as conditional uses, thereby providing the Planning Commission the opportunity to review the matters and act upon same as they see fit. Commissioner Freeman made a motion to approve Resolution No. , A Resolution Recommending Approval of the Amendment to the Text of the Zoning Ordinance to Allow Small Engine Sales and Service as a Condi- tional Use in the C-5 Zone, as Resolution No. 42.

Resolution Na. , A Resolution Recommendin A roval of the Amendment to the Text of the Zonin Ordinance to Prohibit Ex ansion Without Structural Modification of Class "B" Nonconforming Uses Chief Penicaok again advised that this was another of the resolutions previously passed without a Resolution of Intent. The Resolution of Intent was passed at the last Planning Commission meeting. Commissioner Freeman expressed concern that the passage of this resolution would effectively prohibit expansion of home occupations. A discussion followed on whether or not home occupations should be considered non- conforming uses. Planner Ron Hough advised that he felt home occupations were not to be considered as nonconforming uses. Home occupations are reviewed annually and if there was a problem with compatibility, they can be denied the next year`s permit, It was pointed out that the reason for passing this resolution is to prohibit expansion of the Class "B" nonconforming uses which are not in conformance with the comprehensive land use plan. By allowing these nonconforming uses to expand, we en- courage non-compliance to the comprehensive plan. IC is the intention that eventually the Class "B" nonconforming uses be phased out over a period of time.
