VITOUSEK: Commissioner Van Pernis? VAN PERNIS: The information staff has a couple of questions from me they can read to the Planning Department. CAMERO: Yes, I can that do Commissioner Van Pernis. I actually tried to prepare some to that prior to this as well. Let me get that screen up for you, okay. VAN PERNIS: I'd like for you to read the questions if you have them. I don't think they were delivered to you. They were delivered to her, could you read the questions for all of the Commissioners here and could I ask that they'll be answered yes or no and if you want to go beyond that that's fine but, please answer yes or no first. CAMERO: Okay, I'll go with the Commission, the Planning Department questions that was given to me earlier today. So, question number one from Commissioner Mark Van Pernis is did Planning look into how many licensed B & B's are located nearby? Say, a ten (10) mile radius if there's no other frame of reference. If known, how many? Is it okay if I answer it too right after or shall I read all the questions first? VITOUSEK: If you can please answer— VAN PERNIS: "- - -" (speaking at the same time with Vitousek) CAMERO: Okay, that's perfect. So, I did do a research on the bed and breakfasts that were located nearby. I took the transcripts from the past meeting into consideration because those were some of questions that you had asked me as well as for the rezone amendment that happened just down the road from this subject property. So, based on my research it wasn't a 10-mile radius so I apologize for that but, I will be sure to keep a 10-mile radius in mind next time. There was approximately 1 B & B that was approved that came into the Planning Department nearby this B & B. VAN PERNIS: Next question please. CAMERO: Okay, question number 2 from Commissioner Van Pernis, did Planning look into how many County Short Term Vacation Rental (STVR)permits have been issued nearby? Say a 10-mile radius if there's no other frame of reference. If known, how many? So, yes, STVR's are definitely something that I look into a lot, I've had a lot of experience in the STVR's. What I did was I looked into the zone section in the plat that were approximately within again a half a mile radius. I had about nine (9) STVR permits that came in within those 9, 1 was rejected and 1 was denied. Something to keep in mind was that this area and if you guys would like I can share my Geographical Information System (GIS) screen with you is that a lot of the subdivisions within this area are post seventy-six (76) and within the STVR ordinance. STVR's which are our acronym for Short Term Vacation Rental which are un-hosted vacation rentals most of them are not allowed to be approved in the post 76 it was one of the clear outlined within that ordinance that allowed for STVR. 5 EXHIBIT C
