Commissioner Balch: Sure. <br />Commissioner Nagler: Which is, do we support the use of the backyard for any use at <br />all other than a buffer? <br />Commissioner Allen: Before I answer, could I just say, would that include five people <br />from the Mason's having lunch outside on the patio? <br />Commissioner Nagler: That would be a use other than as a buffer, yes. <br />Commissioner O'Connor: I would not support that. <br />Commissioner Balch: Yes, I don't think I would either. A strict prohibition. <br />Commissioner Allen: Greg, what are you saying, no use in the backyard? It doesn't <br />matter, even if there are five people having lunch there? <br />Commissioner O'Connor: No, it's a buffer. <br />Commissioner Balch: Quick question to staff. What's the distance between the buildings <br />to the fence? <br />Weinstein: Let us check and we'll report back. <br />Chair Ritter: Part of me just wants to go through line by line because then we'll have a <br />result after this to make a motion on it. <br />Commissioner Nagler: But people are expressing that they don't want to do that; that it <br />doesn't matter about the details about it. <br />Commissioner Balch: If you're talking about the use of the backyard, you're talking <br />about the hours, the operations, all that comes in in my opinion, right? <br />Commissioner Allen: Yes, sound attenuation and different things. <br />Commissioner Nagler: So if you don't want the backyard used at all, you don't have to <br />have that conversation, right? <br />Commissioner Allen: Correct, so Greg you come out that you don't want it used at all, <br />right? <br />Commissioner O'Connor: I think the original Planning Commission was clear. <br />Commissioner Allen: So I come out that it could be used for five people of the Masons <br />having lunch. With the right restrictions, I could see some use and the reason is that if <br />this was a home, a residence instead of the Masons, a residence would have a <br />backyard. It would be reasonable to say they could have five visitors and their friends <br />and sit outside and have lunch. <br />EXCERPT: PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, June 22, 2016 Page 30 of 52 <br />
