Home

CAMERO: Those would be — DEFRANCO: [indecipherable] CAMERO: —My apologies. So, I apologize because Act 16 did cover three rules. So, I thought it was very important to include Planning Department Rule 11 which does have the substantial 40-foot setback. The Planning Commission today would specifically looking at Rule 8 and 9 within the Planning Commission Rules and the changes that are being made there. However, if you guys do have feedback for the Planning Department Rule 11, we are also gathering it today. Please also take in mind that like I mentioned it with the next steps. We will be having another public meeting to address the Planning Department rule changes after we go through the Planning Commission rule changes. DEFRANCO: So, any other comments. I know one of the little buzz things that I've heard going on is the incorporation of the word "development" and who that is for and how much that will affect maybe a small homeowner that is now going to be considered a development. Is there any comments on this? KERN: I can jump on that. DEFRANCO: Yeah. KERN: You're pretty much referring to the change in the SMA — DEFRANCO: Yeah. KERN: — element for the shoreline components. DEFRANCO: Yes. KERN: Yeah, so, prior to this the single-family exemptions, a single- family residence were exempt up to 7,500 square feet. Regardless of whether they were shoreline or not or not shoreline and with this change has done is that if it's a shoreline property there's no longer an exemption for a single-family residence essentially. So, if it exceeds $500,000.00 in value it turns into a SMA Major. If it's a project that's less than that it would be an SMA Minor. So, for the small folks the mom and pops — DEFRANCO: Right. KERN: — it would still fall under if it's less than $500,000.00 it would fall under an SMA Minor category. DEFRANCO: Commissioner Kanuha. 26 EXHIBIT B (DRAFT)
