requirements to remove some of the vegetation and then of course they're probably some standard separation between the neighboring access. But again, John might be able to speak to some of that. KNOWLES: Thank you. PAISHON-DUARTE: Chair. DEFRANCO: Commissioner, Paishon-Duarte. PAISHON-DUARTE: Yes, thank you. So, I just wanted to confirm that this applicant is putting forward the proposed use for residential purposes, correct? And that a short rental application has not been, is not attached to this proposal. ROY: Not that I know. It appears to be a residence for Mr. Sirlin, yes. DEFRANCO: Are there any other comments, oh, excuse me Jeff Darrow. DARROW: Thank you Chair. The applicant's representative will be coming up shortly to speak about the application. It's my understanding that this residence has been used as a short-term vacation rental. It does have a current non-conforming use certificate. That was one of the concerns in doing this application. Whether or not that particular permit would be null and void. The Department did confirm that it would not be null and void moving forward. So,just for your information. SIRLIN: If it helps, I'm here. It's Frank Sirlin here, I'm sorry, I'm late. DEFRANCO: Oh, okay. You're going to be up next. Are there any other questions for Mr. Roy? Oh, you did, excuse me Commissioner. DELA CRUZ: Just looking at the information that was given to us. It looks like here that there was an improvement on the, I guess there's a rock wall along the property. That's back in 2012. Won't there be reinforcing that with the additional swimming pool that will be built out there in the 20-foot setback? Will there be an additional reinforcement on those walls? ROY: I'm not sure of the engineering but, the rock wall issue that you're speaking of is an issue between the applicant and the County to try to improve the access to maintain cause there was some damage to the walls. So, John might be able to speak to the engineering aspect of it but the whole reason for that rock wall repair was to ensure a nice kind of open and clear County access. Because there was some damage to the walls in the past so, the County and the landowner at the time worked together to come up and fix that wall and that was the reason for the repairs and things like that. But as far as the engineering I'm not sure if the walls are going to need to be reinforced to support the additional weight of a pool. DELA CRUZ: Another question. 6 EXHIBIT A
