GONZALES: Any other questions for Mr. Darrow? ISHIBASHI: I get one, Brother Chair. Thank you, Brother Chair. Question in regards to clarifying 25 events. So, how you determine, like we’re trying to determine special events? DARROW: Well, what we’re doing. That was our concerns, so we’re actually deleting that. ISHIBASHI: Oh, okay. DARROW: So, on Condition 7, we’re deleting the first sentence which at that point because of the fact that it might be very difficult for us to determine whether or not a particular event is considered special and trying to keep a log of how many events, you know. At this point, what we’re trying to do is minimize the amount of people and the hours of operation for the events that occur. A majority of the events that were presented by the applicant appear to be events that would be considered accessory to the church itself. ISHIBASHI: So funerals would be separate or included in the twenty five— DARROW: --That would be considered part of— ISHIBASHI: --the twenty five— DARROW: --an accessory use, yeah. Weddings, churches—or funerals, those kinds of things are usually associated with a church activity. GONZALES: So, there is no more number. I think it’s unlimited, unlimited events as long as they keep it under hundred people and stay within the hours, they can have as many as they like. DARROW: Yeah, I mean, if, and again, this is just a suggestion, if there is concern, then the Planning Commission can look at a change if they’re concerned about the amount of events that could occur in the future. ISHIBASHI: Thank you. DARROW: Thank you. GONZALES: Any other questions for staff? ONO: Yeah, one more question. The church structure itself, the congregation. Will probably hold about a hundred people I would assume. DARROW: Maybe that might be a good question for the applicant. ONO: No, well my, my, my--is leading up the question of special events. DARROW: Okay. 4 EXHIBIT C
