Councilwoman Becky A. Hopkins excused. Meeting called to order at 7:10 p.m. The adjourned meeting held for the purpose of reviewing a rough draft of Ordinance 205, which has been drafted with amendments proposed from public hearings which were held previously. Mayor and council discussed the consideration to allow mobile home owners to update the model of mobile home on their lots without a conditional use permit and also to purchase a non-conforming mobile home lot, and update the mobile home without the requirement of a conditional use permit. Also considered was to shorten the time required to process conditional use permits. Attorney Burnett informed council that the new rough draft ordinance has provisions to allow the council to take action the first council meeting after the Land Use Commission meets, without the requirement of an additional fifteen day hearing notice. Mr. Joseph D. Baker, has purchased a lot at 245 Mingo and applied for a Conditional Use Permit to place a new mobile home on the lot. The hearing has been held at the Land Use Commission level. Mr. Baker and residents on Mingo Lane appeared at meeting, with the assumption the hearing would be held at council level this evening. Mayor and Council discussed with Mr. Baker and residents from Mingo Lane the considerations discussed earlier in evening. Councilman Romriell made the proposal that mobile homes be allowed to be changed if they are of no lesser size and no greater age than one being removed. Mayor Cotant informed Mr. Baker and those present concerning his mobile home placement that the hearing regarding the placement of a new mobile home on his lot will be held October 13, 1981. Mayor Cotant called meeting adjourned at 8:30 p.m. ~T O. Cotant, Jr., MayoF~ Vera C. Armstrong, City ~erk
