Staff advised that new locks had been installed in Town Hall. USE PERMIT: Roman Catholic Orphanage (UP 346-70) - Request for amendment to permitted use under UP 264-66 (Mt. Helen). Staff reviewed that the recent subdivision of the Mt. Helen property into two parcels for the purpose of adding a convent created the need for revising this Use Permit for the Roman Catholic Orphanage. The change was to reduce the amount of land (45.30 acres) previously used for this orphanage to 13.99 acres. In addition, the original use permit approved September 7, 1967, had a condition that it be reviewed every three years to determine compliance with the terms thereof. Commission concurred that this review would be appropriate at this time. Commission discussion ensued as to whether an amendment to the original or a new Use Permit be recommended. Commission concurred that the desired method would be to amend the original.
