Mr. Murray Horton, applicant, briefly explained the proposed ad- dition and stated he would be pleased to answer any questions Council may have on the application. Dronkert commented that this project was at the maximum limit of development and it was noted that the applicant was aware of this. MOTION SECONDED AND CARRIED: Moved by Tryon, seconded by Fuhrman and passed unanimously by all members present to grant a special land use permit for Lands of Horton based on the project's con- formance with the guidelines for Ordinance #300. 4. LANDS OF BOB OWEN HOMES, INC., 26065 Bentley Court, request for a special land use permit to allow for a new residence subject to Ordinance #300. The Town Planner presented her report dated 8/13/86 which in- cluded the Site Development Committee's recommendation that a special land use permit for Lands of Bob Owen Homes be granted based on the project substantial conformance with the guidelines for Ordinance #300. Council discussed the project before them specifically concerning the issue of the setbacks and the conditions determined by Site Development Committee at their meeting on 8/6/86. Tryon also ex- pressed concern about the garage facing the main road. The Town Planner explained the interim policy regarding setbacks which was being followed until the new zoning ordinance was adopted. The policy states that the Site Development Committee can determine the setbacks unless a setback determination has al- ready been made on a property. Ken Pastrof, applicant's representative, noted that they con- curred with the conditions of the Site Development Committee. Regarding the setbacks, Mr. Pastrof noted that they were much further back from both Burke and Bentley Court than needed and if a future owner wanted to change setbacks, they would have to re- quest a change. They were amenable to the reversal of setback determinations as suggested by Council. Regarding the placement of the garage, Mr. Pastrof noted that his client wanted to insu- late himself as much as possible from the noise and visual glare off Burke; therefore, there were few windows on that side of the house and the garage was placed on that side. Mr. Pastrof did ask Council to consider allowing the height of the house to remain between 28' to 28.5' rather than the maximum height of 27' al- lowed by the Site Development Committee. Mr. Pastrof explained the confusion resulting from the Health Department's definition of leach lines. Iq
