Home

The closest cross street is Wright Road running again north -south the other way. And, just for, again, for your reference, this blue pardon me—green area here, is where the Cooper Center is and the County's covered play area. So, this is a more zoomed in zoning map, again, with the subject parcels outlined here in black. Old Volcano Road running generally east -west through the slide and Wright Road, north -south. The subject parcel and surrounding parcels are zoned Agricultural – 1 acre. To the north, we've got this Open zoning which is consistent with that play area and Cooper Center, and some Agricultural – 3 acre zoning to the north. Across Old Volcano Road and the highway, we've got Residential zoning, Single -Family Residential zoning and then here in the corner is some Village Commercial zoning which is consistent with the Volcano Village Commercial area. The State Land Use Boundary designation for the subject parcel and surrounding parcels is Agricultural as indicated in light green. And, there is surrounding Urban designations as well as indicated in red. The General Plan Land Use Pattern Allocation Guide Map designates the subject parcel and much of the surrounding parcels as Extensive Agriculture indicated in white with some surrounding Low Density Urban in the mustard color and; again, in the orange color here to the west, Medium Density Urban consistent with that commercial core. Here is an aerial photograph of the subject parcels. Again, for reference, we've got Old Volcano Road running at the bottom of the slide east -west, and Wright Road running north -south. This is the County's covered play area here. And, here are the three subject parcels. And, the surrounding uses are mainly residential. So, a little bit of background, Special Permit No. 966 was originally granted in 1997 to allow for a six -room inn within two dwellings called the Lyman Mountain House and Garden Suites in the three subject parcels. The Applicant is currently requesting an amendment to that Special Permit to change the use to a five -bedroom bed & breakfast operation within one dwelling and accessory structures. They are also requesting deletion of Condition Nos. 3, which is a requirement of Plan Approval; Condition No. 4, which is, indicates the number of bedrooms requirement; and Condition No. 6, which is a requirement for a final status report. The purpose of this request is that the Applicant plans on using the Hale Ohm or the Lyman Mountain House as their main residence and no longer wish to use it as part of the operation. The Applicant has requested the deletion of Condition No. 3, the requirement of Plan Approval, to be consistent with the current Zoning Code which does not require Plan Approval for bed & breakfast operations. The Applicant is also, as the Applicant is proposing a five -bedroom bed & breakfast operation, they are requesting to delete Condition No. 4 which originally limited the inn use to six bedrooms.
