ORDINANCE NO. 1031-81 GRANTED FIRST READING. recreational and commercial vehicle ordinance had been contiriued from the Council Meeting of November 5 , Mr. Rosland presented transparencies which indi- cated the intent of the revised ordinance which would 1) limit operaring cars to parking only on the driveway, but does not limit the number; 2) limit the recreational vehicles to the driveway or the garage, but no more than one out- side. As an alternative, he suggested a screened hard-surfaced area adjacent to the garage contiguous to the driveway, not extending bey,ond the rear of the gar- age, might be cpnsidered. vehicles permitted to be parked on a driveway had been raised from 7,000 to 9,000 pounds. Councilman Courtney recalled that a lady in the Country Club area had opposed parking of recreational vehicles anywhere outside in residential areas. Michael Casserly, Chairman of the Wooddale Neighborhood Council, expressed the concern of his area where lots are narrower than in some parts of the City and suggested basing restrictions of recreational vehicles on lot size and also urged that a limit be placed on the number of cars that could be parked in a driveway. Mr. Harold Kempffer, 5537 Wooddale Ave., said that, under the proposed ordinance, he would not be able to park his trailer on his lot. A gentleman who lives at 5509 Highland Road objected that the proposed ordinance penalizes people with low trailers which do not create as much of a nuisance as large trailers. Mrs. Donald Schultz, 6112 Hansen Rd., reiterated statements made at the last . hearing in regard to vandalism. Mr. and Mrs. Goldberg, 6017. Rillarney Lane, pointed out that screening might be more objectionable than the vehicle itself. .Mr. Martinez Larson said that he parks his trailer away from his property in the winter but that it would he a waste of gasoline in the summer. Mr. Ronald Plan- nenstein, GO17 Crescent Drive, said that, while his trailer is out of sight at the present time, it would b.e objectionable if he conformed to the proposed ordi- nance. Councilman Richards said that he believed that in most cases, it would make less of an impact to keep trailers in the side yard and that it will be dif- ficult to legislate for .every situation. placed on the distance between the street and/or sidewalk and the vehicle in question. storage. Mr. Casserly asked if same variance prcccdure could 5e ccnsidered to take care of special problems. It was generally agreed that back yard parking and screening should be reviewed, as well as lot size and that the possibility of developing a variance procedure should be considered. In order to s&ow the concensus of the Council, Councilman Courtney offered the following ordinance for First Reading: Recalling that discussion of a He explained also that the restriction on commercial Council generally discussed the type of fencing which would be allowed.
