; citizens present in opposition to this development.
�
� ; The Commission discussed questions from the City Council regarding
� allowin g bed and breakfasts in R-2 zones with a Special Use Permit. After
�� , discussion the Commission recommended leaving the zoning provisions as they
� are not to allow these types of uses in R-2 districts.
The Commission also discussed posting of properties for which
rezoning or Special Use requests have been made prior to the Commission's
meeting. The Commission felt this change should be made in their Rules of
Procedure and that an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance was not
necessary. The vote to amend the Commission's Rules of Procedure to post ;
properties at least seven (7) days prior to the Commission meeting was �
; approved, with 11 votes in favor and none in opposition '
