Ms. Norris stated that after m research, the City Attorney has determined that a oo~dition of a conditional use permit can be a time limitation; therefore, special use permits and temporary oonditional use permits are not neoessary and the reoodified zoning ordinance has been adjusted acoordingly. ~issioner ~--~er stated that he is still of the oi:r/nton that there needs to be a sunset clause in the ordinanoe regarding non-oonformtng uses that have been grandfathered in so that eventually all non-conforming uses are controlled ~issioner He~driksen disagr~ on the basis that these [articular property owners have probably invested a great deal of money in designing buildings on their property to acute the grandfathered use; if that ~se is disall(~;ed, the City has in essence devalued the property. General discussion ensued and the C~m~ission directed Ms. Norris to research the manner in which the State Statute and other cities address the issue of grandfathered non-conforming uses; MS. Norris is to have this information available for the regular Planning and Zoning meeting in March. Discussion ensued regarding fencing and screening requirements and the tnoonsistent use of the term 'opegue' in the ordinance. ~he Commission ~ the ordinance draft in the following ways: 1.
