Samson Yao stated that that intersection is beyond the current planning horizon. Commissioner Opatik asked if Mesquite and Hwy 160 would be getting traffic lights. Samson Yao stated that it is not in the current plan however that doesn t mean that they (Public Works) are not proceeding. He has had conversations with NDOT regarding a future traffic light there. Commissioner Kimball asked what the timeframe was from submitting to NDOT to the traffic lights being installed. Samson Yao stated that he had put in request for Homestead Rd. and Hwy 160 two years ago and the lights still are not installed. Commissioner Kimball asked about the cost of improving and intersection as well as installing traffic lights. He asked what Mr. Yao s best estimate of the cost is and where the funding comes from. Samson Yao stated that if it is an intersection along a highway the funding would come from NDOT, Nye County, Impact Fees, other developer contribution, and the PETT fund. The cost can range from $375, for just the stop light to $1,500, for road, curbing, drainage, etc. Samson Yao stated that Charleston and Hwy 372 has the potential for a roundabout. Commissioner Opatik stated that roundabouts are not effective. Commissioner Kimball asked for an explanation of the different levels of grading, paving, and chip seal.

They are trying to ensure that the temporary light will be able to be salvaged when it comes time to put in the permanent lights. Commissioner Schinhofen asked if January 2007 was the first time the request for light on Hwy 160 had been put in. Samson Yao stated that the process was started about two years ago. Commissioner Tolladay asked what level we (Nyc County) can continue to chip seal roads without depleting the Public Works workforce to maintaining the chip seal roads. Samson Yao stated that chip seal roads help to reduce the maintenance. Maintaining gravel roads cost more than chip seal roads. Increasing the layers of a chip seal roads helps with maintenance.

7 Cheryl Beeman reviewed the staff report. She stated that these applications were presented at the August RPC meeting and was continued to allow the applicant time to provide a site plan. Staff is recommending approval of the lots fronting onto Manse Road to Neighborhood Commercial and disapproval of the other two lots that are master planned residential and zoned residential. Dave Richards from Civilwise Services stated that there is an error on the site plan. He stated that Micky Street is supposed to read Manse. He stated the site plan is simple and general and that Tentative Improvements will bring a more detailed site plan. He stated that the lots will be separated from residential lots with block walls. He stated that he feels this will become a heavy arterial road. Commissioner Tolladay stated that the site plan provided doesn t show enough detail. Commissioner Skinner stated that he disagrees. He stated that in the code under Neighborhood Commercial the code gives us a list of potential establishments for the Neighborhood Commercial zoning. He felt the applicant was being honest. Jack Lohman stated that the site plan is an issue but the major influence of staffs recommendation is the encroachment on the residential neighborhood. Commissioner Kimball stated that if the master plan is being tampered with there needs to be a good reason. He asked if a conceptual site plan of this nature gives the Planning Department and more importantly the neighborhood enough information to evaluate whether or not they want this in their neighborhood and secondly is it appropriate to go ahead and extend the zoning to residential property on the basis of a fairly vague conceptual plan. Dave Richards stated that these commercial sites are all over town. Buildings are built and leasing signs are put up. There is no way to tell exactly what businesses will occupy the buildings however the zoning ordinance gives the guidelines needed. Commissioner Kimball stated that the Planning Department s concern is with the two back lots encroaching on the residential neighborhood. Dave Richards stated that this would take a mixed use property off the map and turning it into something more defined like neighborhood commercial. Commissioner Kimball asked for clarification on the site plan. He stated that directly to the left is mixed use and directly to the right is general commercial. He asked what the harm would be if the lots in question were zoned neighborhood commercial? Cheryl Beeman stated that the property shown as general commercial has been rezoned to neighborhood commercial. She stated the other properties are developed residential even though the mixed used extends into that neighborhood. Some parcels have been zoned in a village residential category while others remain open use. Commissioner Tolladay stated that he feels the application is premature. Commissioner Kimball asked if there were any more questions. Commissioner Shinhofen asked if neighborhood commercial zoning was more intense than village residential zoning? Cheryl Beeman stated yes. Public Comment Opened 5:41p.m. Public Comment Closed 5:41p.m. PRPC September 12, 2007 Meeting Minutes Page 7 of 27

8 Commissioner Skinner stated that if the front two lots are approved and the back two lots are disapproved it would be a lot less likely for the back two lots to be developed. He stated that he felt it would be better to approve the back lots and require a block wall. Commissioner Opatik asked staff why the applicant would be given three years to remove the current single family residence? Cheryl Beeman stated if this lot gets zoned neighborhood commercial a legal non conforming use will be created. The three year allotment was a way of moving forward on the proposed plan of development. Jack Lohman stated that they have three years to get the old use out and start the new use. Public Comment Re-Opened 5:44p.m. Miles Williams stated that he lives at 4090 E. Manse, directly across the street and he opposes the lots being zoned neighborhood commercial. Commissioner Kimball stated that the properties next to the lots in question are already neighborhood commercial. Miles Williams stated that he was not aware of the zoning on the other properties.

PRPC September 12, 2007 Meeting Minutes Page 8 of 27

9 Commissioner Kimball stated that over the past couple years there has been some controversy regarding some rescues and/or sanctuaries. He stated that in his opinion the recent situation regarding the cats could have been avoided if this was in place. He stated that everyone won t be satisfied but some type of legislation needs to be in place. Commissioner Kimball stated that the committee has met with people with horses as well as people with animals with special conditions. He felt that the committee had tried to be very fair. This is based on reasonable guidelines for reasonable activities; people have the right to own and enjoy animals; animals have the right to be taken care of properly; and the general public has the right to know that things are being taken care of properly and that the welfare and safety of the general public is being considered. He stated that to his knowledge there is nothing in this legislation to discourage people that have special interest. Zuzanna Kukol has a model facility for exotic animals. For new people coming into town, this bill will insure that things are done right. This ordinance establishes a procedure in which people would be required to obtain a Conditional Use Permit to have their operation. Public Comment Opened 6:32p.m. Eileen Hart-Crawford is a member of the Ad-Hoc board as well as the President/Owner of K-9 Castle. She stated regulations need to be for all animals. Jim Hanna was on the Ad Hoc Committee and stated that the committee spent a lot of time making this nonburdensome for the community. He felt this was a great start. Scott Shoemaker stated that he doesn t agree with the Conditional Use Permit requirements for people with exotic animals. Yvonne Smith stated she is here representing the 411 children. She stated that not everyone will be happy with this law but rules are needed. She stated that exotic animal owners do need rules that need to be followed as not all people are conscientious She feels that all stables weather they have training facilities or do schooling should be licensed and inspected to insure humane treatment. Zoning is important for the animals and for the rights of the people that don t want animals next to their property. Commissioner Borasky read a statement from a person that had to leave. The statement is asking if there can be another classification for residential kennel with over ten dogs that does not bread, sell, or conduct any business concerning the dogs. Steve Benson stated that he is the owner of Happy Acres Sanctuary and has been participated in many meetings regarding this bill. He stated that the county needs regulations and inspections. He feels this is necessary for the growth of the county. Zuzanna Kukol owns exotic animals here in the county. She stated that she doesn t agree with family ranch being exempt from this bill. She feels that family ranches are clearly a business and should be regulated. She asked what studies were conducted that determine that the current method was not adequate as stated on page one of the bill. Commissioner Kimball stated that family ranches are not exempt from everything and that family ranch was a compromise for a lot of the current horse owners because the current ordinance allowed anything. There was no definition to determine what made facilities commercial stables. Jim Hanna stated that this area of the country has a long history and is culturally attached to the livestock business. A lot of people that have owned livestock in this county have made some money to recoup some of the cost involved in caring for livestock as there is a lot of cost involved. This is done thru some commercial ventures with horses. That is what family ranch is about, that s part of the horse culture. Breading occasionally, training your neighbors horse, or stable someone else s horse on your property is part of the traditional horse culture. Nye County has had three good industries over the years, timber, mining, and livestock. PRPC September 12, 2007 Meeting Minutes Page 9 of 27

10 Cheryl Beeman stated that as the current ordinance states now in the rural homestead! rural estates the keeping of livestock and other large animals for commercial or house hold use is permissive. This ordinance is to put some type of parameters on neighborhood appropriateness. Tim McCarty, Nye County Animal Control, thanked the committee members for all the time and effort put into this bill. This is a big issue that needs to be addressed now as the growth of the community is coming rapidly. He stated that guidelines need to be set and ordinances need to be defined and this is being done with the new bill. This is a great start for Nye County. Gordon Wits stated that animals cannot be compared. Different animals need different requirements and rules. Scott Shoemaker stated that the Conditional Use Permit requirement is what he has an issue with not the different rules for different animals. Diane Davis stated that there are some parts of the bill that she agreed with and some that she did not agree with. She stated that some horse owners do sell horses but barely get back what they have put into the horse. She stated that you don t see an over abundance of horse at the animal shelter as there are of dogs and cats. She also stated that she doesn t feel that it is fair that Pahrump has stricter rules on animals then Vegas. Commissioner Kimball stated that nothing that gets passed in an ordinance is set in stone. Re-evaluations are done from time to time. A foundation is need and this is an attempt to do so. Brent Jones, Director of Emergency Services, stated that this is well done and feels they committee did a great job. Jon Coney wanted to know if there is a legal non-conforming and grandfathering for the people that already have existing operations. Commissioner Kimball stated that yes there is grandfathering and legal non-conforming but they will be required to have inspections to insure the proper and adequate care of the animals. Public Comment Closed 7:03p.m. Commissioner Shinhofen stated that he had sat in on some meetings before becoming a RPC member and feels this has come a long way and is off to a good start. Commissioner Kimball asked Ron Kent if he had read the bill. Ron Kent stated yes. He proposed an amendment to page 2, , subsection C under Animal Rescue. The amendment is as follows: Inspection of animals and their habitat shall be conducted annually by a nationally or regionally established organization or agency, as designated and authorized by the Nye County Animal Control Office, or the Nye County Animal Control Office. Copies of the inspection reports shall be maintained at the Nye County Animal Control Office. Commissioner Schinhofen motioned to approve item TA to base don public comment, staff recommendations, and past comments that we have had by the board and including the amendments stated by Ron Kent. Ron Kent stated that subsection C in Animal Sanctuary; subsection E in Animal, Special Conditions; subsection C in Stable, Commercial; and subsection C in Kennel, Commercial are to have the same amendment as stated for subsection C in Animal Rescue. Commissioner Schinhofen so amended his motion. Cheryl Beeman stated that she had another amendment. On the third WHEREAS on the first page there is some older language left in there. It should read as follows: WHEREAS, the Board finds that the current methods for the PRPC September 12, 2007 Meeting Minutes Page 10 of 27

11 regulation of animal related uses within the zoning regulations are not adequate to protect the public health, safety, and welfare. Commissioner Schinhofen stated that he so amends his motion for that also.

Cheryl Ann Dorsey Property Owner/Applicant. AP# Beth Lee reviewed staff report. She stated that this item was originally heard at the June 13, 2007 RPC meeting at which time the Commission recommended denial. The applicant appealed that decision to the BOCC. Between the time the applicant applied for the appeal and the time the application went before the BOCC, on June 20, 2007 the comprehensive rezoning was approved. That parcel was rezoned from Open Use to RE-I and the setbacks changed. The BOCC at the August 22, 2007 meeting remanded the application back to the RPC for further study under the new setback requirements due to new zoning. On August 23, 2007 code enforcement was permitted to enter the property to measure the setbacks. The property still has setback violations but in a different area. Commissioner Kimball stated that the new violation on the setbacks was due to the new zoning Glenn Roundy is here for his wife Cheryl Ann Dorsey the applicant.

12 Owner/Applicant, Agent, Commissioner Tolladay stated that he is sympathetic with the situation however if a permit was obtained the set back requirements would have been clear. Commissioner Skinner asked if this is three feet in question. Commissioner Murray stated that the applicant can t be held responsible for the violation due to new zoning. Jack Lohman stated that if the commission is inclined to grant the waiver he recommends that the applicant be required to obtain building permits. Commissioner Kimball stated that there was a code compliance investigation and asked for some clarification on the situation. Beth Lee stated that there are other code compliance issues than the setback requirements. There is a violation of NCC , the requirement of a zoning review; NCC minimum building setbacks; and UBC 106.1, building permit requirements. Commissioner Kimball stated that waivers should only be given for really good reasons. Jack Lohman stated that no one is exempt from obtaining a building permit. Commissioner Shinhofen motioned to approve WV based on finding of the Commission to include the requirementfor a building permit.

13 Cheryl Beeman stated that the property is grandfathered in as a single family residence and a business. She stated that while going through the master planning process spot planning of each and every piece of property that had commercial activity was not done. Commissioner Kimball asked if it would be more accurate to say this is spot zoning and not a scrivener s error? Cheryl Beeman stated that he was correct according to the Planning Departments analysis. Jack Lohman stated that the applicant can continue his business as a legal non conforming use as he is forever as long as he doesn t cease for six months. Robert Brentlinger stated that the business has been in continued use for over ten years now and he has put a lot of money into it. The zoning when the property was purchased was Open Use. He stated that he is in a position financially it is difficult to enlarge the business and put more money into it, that s why he is here basically. Debra Strickland, agent and friend, stated that this happens to be a gun store that has been in existence for ten years. Our problem lies in that, yes, there has been spot zoning done in the past here in Pahrump via necessity. This is a necessity for this particular business owner. You can t do business in Pahrump, you can t get a loan to add on to your business whether be just for your inventory. This is not a huge business, it has his residence and business attached but it has been in continuous use for ten years. The problem in this is that we should have come to you originally when you were drawing up your zoning. I don t think it would have even been an issue then. I have seen what has gone across and been approved by the RPC in the past and we all know that there has been times when we have had to have spot zoning. I would like to say this is one of those times. Commissioner Tolladay stated that he believed the reason the zoning was needed was a financing issue. He asked if that was still the case. Robert Brentlinger stated that was still part of it the other reason is the business is locked into being grandfathered so I m in one of those positions where the property has to be sold under the grandfathering which doesn t make it attractive whenever I go to retire and want to sell the business. It also makes it extremely difficult because you re the redheaded step child of the world from the loan idea when it comes to non conforming use. That just sends red flags to everybody and they don t want to touch you. Commissioner Tolladay stated that he understands Mr. Brentlinger s situation but it is his conviction that it is not within our (RPC) power to remedy that problem. He stated that it would seem to him the obvious solution is that the business needs to move to an area where that type of business is appropriate. Debra Strickland stated that is exactly what she sees is the problem here. Your taking a business that has been in existence, I thought our business here in Pahrump was to grow businesses. We are here to make sure the business that our currently here are successful. This has been a business that has been here without any problems, caused absolutely no problems to this county and has brought employment and a need that we have. Now you re saying well I don t like where you re located because we have decided the zoning is going to be this way. Commissioner Tolladay stated he needed to clarify his position. Your (applicant) issue is financing, your solutions is to take your business elsewhere. You are perfectly within your rights to continue your existing business exactly as you have been doing. Robert Brentlinger stated that his issue is not just financing, it s the overall worth of the property. I ve been there for ten years and it was open use when I originally put the business in. Why am I being zoned out basically? Commissioner Kimball asked Mr. Kent to explain the concept legally. Ron Kent asked with regard to what issue. Commissioner Kimball stated in regards to grandfathered use and legal non-conforming. PRPC September 12, 2007 Meeting Minutes Page 13 of 27

14 Ron Kent stated that we have been through this. It is the same fact scenario as the last hearing on this matter, the facts have not changed. He (applicant) was legal non-conforming when he was there and because of the zoning to build into a combination for all people situated such as him. He is allowed to continue on. That is why the grandfathering ordinance is there and that provision is there. What he is requesting to do now is to go beyond what the protection provides him. He wants to get this zoned General Commercial or whatever and then move on to something entirely different. As we discussed previously Chairman, financial issues are not within the prevue as Commissioner Tolladay noted. This man is not being insured in any way, the status quote remains the same. What he is asking for is something entirely different above and beyond what he has ever been entitled to begin with and finally you have your staff who have clearly consistently stated this is spot zoning which we know is a fundamental no no in planning. Commissioner Kimball stated that he didn t understand the implied bias. If a property is grandfathered and he has a legal right to do what he is doing, and that legal right as far as I understand it extends to his children, his grand children, etc. it goes on into perpetuity. Why the implied bias, and by implied I don t mean it doesn t exist, I m really trying to learn. Why do the institutions discriminate, raise red flags on the ability of someone to get a loan on a grandfathered property if it s a perfectly appropriate property and recognized and goes on in perpetuity? Why can t he get a loan and why can t he sell it as what it is? Ron Kent stated that he doesn t know if that is necessarily the case. As a fundamental rule, Chairman, if you re a commercial entity and you want to go down and seek commercial financing thru different financing through different commercial products that are being provided then they are going to look at you and they are going to look at your assets. This property right now, he owns property and it has value, he could get financing, maybe not commercial financing but he could get financing through a conventional mortgage, first deed of trust, or second deed of trust just because it has value as a residential entity. As I said before there is a dynamic and given of flow in a commercial situation between a private lender and a private borrower and it just simply is not a governmental issue. Jack Lohman stated that lenders are lenders; there are a lot of them out there. You may apply for a loan from one lender and they may not give you a loan, you go to the next one they may. You may have to shop around for any reason, however we have had request to give someone a letter stating the condition of their legal non- conforming property because they wanted to go get a loan. We have done that. We can specify the property is legal non conforming because its been here as long as trail leads back to the legality of it. We have done that and can do that as long as there is a good trial that leads back to substantiate that it was a legal non-conforming. They can take it to the lenders and shop around. Public Comment Opened 7:50p.m. Anthony Greco asked if the residence is moved off the property does it become commercial? Commissioner Kimball stated no however you could legally apply for a zone change because you don t have a residence on the property. Commissioner Borasky asked staff if a house and a small business on the same property were allowed in mixed use? Jack Lohman stated yes. Commissioner Schinhofen stated that when he looks at the master plan there are places with great big yellow spots and right in the corner there is a little red spot. When they master planned it they master planned the commercial spot. How did that happen and how is that different than this application? Jack Lohman stated that when they did the zoning to comply with the master plan, they zoned it in accordance with the plan but, not to supersede the plan. There are some areas that are hard zoned prior to their work. I m not sure where you re talking about but there may be spots here and there that are hard zoned. Commissioner Shinhofen stated that when the master plan was done there were businesses that had been there a long time and they went ahead and said since you have been there a long time we are going to make you commercial. Ms. Beeman might know exactly what I m talking about. My question was what s the difference? PRPC September 12, 2007 Meeting Minutes Page 14 of 27

15 Commissioner Kimball stated that there were a lot of businesses in existence when the master plan was made and those businesses were placed in residential zones and they became legal non-conforming applications. That is the case with this one. Mr. Kimball stated that he was sympathetic with the case which is why he asked his question at the beginning. What he doesn t want to have happen is that every single property that became legal non-conforming assumes that we have established precedence for them to go commercial because they wanted to. There has to be a compelling reason which is why I was kind of hoping it was a scrivener s error. Commissioner Skinner asked if it would be more appropriate for the applicant to pursue a conditional use permit for what he is trying to do? Commissioner Kimball stated that if the applicant gets a loan to expand his business he will have to come back and get a conditional use permit anyway to expand a grandfathered use. Dave Richards stated that in a bank situation these non conforming uses, when it goes into foreclosure, which is what a bank looks at, what happens when the bank has to take the property back. In a loan situation they look at what they have got to do to be able to do something with the property. Grandfathered as you know expires after six months of non use. In a foreclosure situation the bank realizes they lose that grandfathered use, but they have made a commercial loan on that property. Now all of the sudden they have a commercial loan on a property they have foreclosed on that is no longer commercial. One of the big questions in these loans is the question of if the property is zoned properly. Secondly we have other situations and several of them and you will probably have some before you in the near future where the state division of water resources is no longer giving commercial water rights for wells on property that is not zoned commercial. If it is zoned residential and someone applies for commercial water rights to come into compliance because the state has come down on them for their water rights, now all the sudden they can t get the commercial water right because it doesn t have the commercial zoning. Those are real situations that we have confronted in our business ourselves. To answer your question, there are two answers right there. Commissioner Opatik stated that she concurs with the financing end of that. That s absolutely true. The second comment however about the commercial well, if people would investigate and find out what the property they choose to purchase is zoned they wouldn t get into that catch twenty two. They would either go for the rezoning, make the sale contingent upon rezoning, and one it s rezoned apply for the commercial well. That can happen. What we find ourselves too often in this situation where people have already done and now they want us to fix. That s what we can t get into. This is not that situation but we don t want to get it that situation. Debra Strickland stated that she realizes that Commissioner Opatik s other business is real estate. That is your business. This gentleman has built a business now that he will not be able to re-sale as a business. Do you see my point? He s got commercial water, he s got a commercial septic tank, and he s been in business for ten years. They missed this property when they did their original zoning and if you want to pull that map and look at it and see how many pieces of property thru out the valley are zoned red are zoned orange in the middle of your yellow it been done a lot of times. This is a unique situation. This property has all the caviars to be commercial; it just isn t because you guys missed it. Commissioner Opatik stated that whether we missed or didn t miss it is not the issue. What we as a commission try to do is to make sure we don t zone something commercial in the of all these residential properties so they can turn around and sell it to somebody who is going to put another commercial entity in there and really mess up the neighborhood. We are also trying to protect the rights of the surrounding neighbors and he is right in the middle of yellow. Commissioner Kimball asked if this property should be put on the Zoning Task Force list under category five? Jack Lohman stated that was a great idea but unfortunately he thinks that we are restricted to what the board approved as category five. We can t start adding people to the list after the board has approved the list. He stated that Mr. Brentlinger can sell this business as it is. He can also expand it with a use permit. The business he has he could sell. Commissioner Murray stated that when the master plan was done, we might as well have thrown it out the window and not done it at all if the intention of the master plan was to just but a color code on every existing use that was in PRPC September 12, 2007 Meeting Minutes Page 15 of 27

16 the valley. Do you know how many grandfathered business there are in this valley? There are hundreds, probably thousands of them. They are in the exact same situation, this is not unique. There are grandfathered businesses all over, if we were going to just go around the valley and color code the existing land use the master plan would have had no purpose. We wouldn t have needed grandfathering; it would have been totally useless. Verbatim End Public Comment Closed 8:02p.m. Commissioner Tolladay motioned to deny MP and ZC based on the findings of staff Commissioner Opatik second&l Roll call vote: Schinhofen, no; Murray, yes; Tolladay, yes; Kimball, yes; Opatik, yes; Skinner, yes.

He stated that the applicant is proposing a commercial, multi-family, and single family project. They have submitted a conceptual site plan. He stated that this is in Flood Zone A-undetermined and is a case of spot zoning. There has been a letter of opposition from an adjacent property owner. Commissioner Opatik asked if Wal-Mart experienced some of the same challenges being in the Flood Zoned A- undetermined? Jack Lohman stated that he would have to speak to Samson Yao to get the answer to that as it is an engineering issue. Commissioner Kimball stated that if the application was approved part of the conditions would be that the applicant deals with the flood zone issues. Ernie Becker stated that he is a fifth generation developer contractor. He stated that currently they have six to ten multi-family projects that they own and operate as well as twenty five plus shopping centers. He stated that Thousandaire will become a major arterial road. He has found that commercial works well along roads like this. Multi-family provides a good buffer between the commercial and the single family residential areas. Dave Richards stated that the applicant is willing to do the flood zone studies needed. Commissioner Kimball stated that the flood plain issue needed to be solved in a way that won t negatively affect the neighbors. Jack Lohman stated that drainage is a vast understatement; this is a hundred year flood zone. Commissioner Kimball asked if it would be prudent to get the study done before the application goes any further. Jack Lohman stated yes. Dave Richards stated that wouldn t make any since, the study would only show that the property is in Flood Zone A undetermined. He stated that there is a condition on the zone change saying that the flood zone study needs to be done before any further development of the property. PRPC September 12, 2007 Meeting Minutes Page 17 of 27

18 Jack Lohman stated that FEMA issues are dealt with by the Building Department. Before any building permits are issued the building official would determine what kind of work would need to be done. Commissioner Tolladay asked how far the proposed development is from public sewer and water? Dave Richards stated about a quarter of a mile. Commissioner Kimball stated that this is a good project but doesn t understand why the request is to go from VR-20 to VR-8? yr-b may be more appropriate. Ernie Becker stated that he has dealt with a lot of flood plain areas in Vegas. He understands that he would have to adhere to the requirements by FEMA and would not be able to start any construction until he has done so. We are here to make the town better and enhance. Commissioner Skinner asked if the neighboring properties would be at risk from the drainage from a project like this? Ernie Becker stated that as things are developed downstream and upstream from this property the flow to the property will be reduced. As this project is developed a retention basin would be create as required per the flood study. Public Comment Open 9:09p.m. Robert Howard stated that he has no interest in this property but wants to know what stops people from coming by him and zoning properties VR-8 when his property is zoned VR-20. Public Comment Closed 9:12p.m. Dave Richards gave a closing statement. He stated that drainage issues can be dealt with from an engineering standpoint. He stated that the applicant will go all the way to FEMA to get the map of reversion done. The developer has expresses that a compromise in the lot size is acceptable. Commissioner Tolladay asked if VR-20 would sink the project. Ernie Becker stated yes. Commissioner Opatik asked how many stories the multi-family units would be and if it would be condos, apartments, etc. Ernie Becker stated that typically they build two story units. He stated that he wanted to do some research on the needs of the area before determining what kind of units they would build. Commissioner Kimball asked if putting VR-8 behind the commercial and then VR-1O behind the VR-8, leaving out the multi-family, would work. Ernie Becker stated that in his experience home owners would rather live next to multi-family then commercial. He stated the income from the multi-family projects helps to support the entire project. Commissioner Murray stated that she has spoke to the surrounding residence. People have seen the change in Pahrump. The residences in the area have firsthand knowledge of the flooding and are concerned.

Rockingham Capital Partners LLC Property Owner/Applicant; Civilwise Services Agent, AP# Steve Osborne reviews staff report. Staff feels that this is a case of spot zoning. Staff is recommending denial of both applications. Dave Richards, Civilwise, stated that this is new terminology, a Master Planned Livable Community. The projects intention is to provide a livable community for people that are less mobile, less active, and need support facilities in their vicinity. This project is designed as a complete self contained community. He stated that this type of a project doesn t fit into any of the zoning categories so it will be spot zoning no matter where it is at. Dave Richards asked the Commission to allow new material. Commissioner Tolladay motioned to accept new material Commissioner Murray seconded. Roll call vote: Schinho[en, yes; Murray, yes; Tolladay, yes: Kimball, yes; Opatik, yes; Skinner, yes.

PRPC September 12, 2007 Meeting Minutes Page 19 of 27

20 Dave Richards stated that what are shown are private roads. The developer intends on bringing infrastructure to the property and working with Public Works regarding the roads. He stated that the infrastructure will be brought in from about two miles away which will benefit the people along the path. Commissioner Schinhofen asked if they had a letter of intent to serve from Utilities Inc. Dave Richards stated not at the time. It would be obtained in the process of the development plans. Commissioner Schinhofen stated that he is concerned with the two stories and having elevators during fires. He asked how many units per acre. Steve Osborne stated that it would be twelve units per acres based on the size of the property and the number of proposed units which is permissive in the mixed use zoning district. Commissioner Kimball asked in the people this is targeting would be the type of people that would need independent living and moving towards assisted living. Yvonne Higgins stated that the project has a sixteen thousand square feet medical office building and a ten thousand square feet senior center that is expandable by five thousand seven hundred square feet in the future. Commissioner Opatik asked if the units will be rented or sold. Dave Richards stated that the unit would be sold. Public Comment Open 10:12p.m. Don Dixon stated that he owns property across the street and thinks this is a great idea. Public Comment Closed 10:14p.m. Ron Kent stated that he was concerned about the details of the proposed dedication of a ten thousand square feet senior center to the county. Dave Richards stated the legalities would have to be worked out. He stated the intention is to dedicate the senior center to the county. Ron Kent referred to a letter in the back up material from Civilwise dated June 27, Commissioner Kimball asked why the senior facility has to be dedicated to the county. Ron Kent stated that it doesn t have to be dedicated, the offer was made by the applicant It is a substantial offer of dedication to the county. Commissioner Kimball asked if having a development agreement would be a good idea on this senior center project. Jack Lohman stated that it was possible but he would suggest a condition be added stating that the dedication be done. He also stated that there should be conditions added to the zone change, a condition holding them to the site plan as presented, and a condition holding them to the commentary that is entitled Beverly Park Master Planned Livable Community. Commissioner Opatik asked if there was a financial benefit to the developer to donate a senior center to the county. Ron Kent Stated that logic would presume that there must be a financial benefit. Commissioner Murray stated that the existing senior facility is not a county facility. The dedication of the proposed senior facility would incur the cost of maintaining the facility to the county. PRPC September 12, 2007 Meeting Minutes Page 20 of 27

21 Ron Kent stated that there needed to be more information in the site of the senior center and the offer needed to be protected. Dave Richards stated that a Development Agreement may be needed. Commissioner Tolladay asked staff if the issue was the higher density in the residential master planned area. Steve Osborne stated that it is a major amendment which is a major change to the land use plan so it primarily comes down to that issue. Commissioner Tolladay stated that to justify approval the benefit to the community would need to be pointed out. Commissioner Kimball stated that the increased traffic on Basin would create concern. Commissioner Opatik asked if there was a place that stated that this was a fifty five and older community. Dave Richards stated that was the intent but it did not state that. Commissioner Murray motioned to approve MP and ZC based on findings determined from the presentation and that the proposed amendment would approve land use patterns in the area. It would contribute to the desirable utilization of land use for the community and economic development. The traffic problems to be mitigated thru development agreements. Subject to standard conditions of approval and special conditions of approval with the additions of special condition number 16 that the applicant obtain a standing as a 55+ community, that the development be built to the general concept as presented in the back up material including the dedication of the senior center to the county subject to the BOCC acceptance. Recommend the requirement of a Development Agreement and the development be modified to have one story and two stories as a recommendation. Commissioner Skinner amended the motion by adding a special condition stating that if the work has not commenced in three years it will revert back. Commissioner Opatik seconded.

Motion to approve passes 6-0 Commissioner Kimball asked how staff differentiates the vote on this item from the one taken earlier for the gun shop? Cheryl Beeman stated that spot zoning is typically defined as a very small area for uses that are significantly different from those allowed in the surrounding areas. It is in favor of a particular property owner. In this case there is a public benefit of bringing this propert into conformance. Jack Lohman stated that there is a lot of existing commercial development in the area. The zone change matches the pattern of existing zoning. 17 a.

Frontage Road, situated on Frontage Road north of Oxbow Avenue, Calvada Valley Unit 11, Block 1, Lot 21. SV Holdings, LLC Property Owner, Dollar Loan Center, LLC Applicant, David Galyeen and Kjelden Cundiff Agents. AP# Beth Lee reviewed the staff report. This project is to refurbish an existing building to be used as a Dollar Loan Center. The requested Master Plan amendment may be viewed as an overall improvement to the master plan. Staff feels that general commercial with a conditional use permit is the appropriate zone for this business. Commissioner Kimball asked if it was just poor wording in the statutes that require a waiver, what if this was a mortgage business or escrow office. What would it fit under? Beth Lee stated that the zoning ordinance discusses banks at one extreme and payday loan centers at another with nothing in the middle which is where this business falls. Jack Lohman stated that this case took some time. The waiver was applied for as an insurance policy. The waiver might not even be necessazy but was applied for incase the board didn t find that their business was too similar to surrounding businesses. Commissioner Kimball asked if there was some consideration in the Planning Department being given to changing the entire frontage road zoning being changed. Jack Lohman stated that was something to be discussed later. Bruce Cooley stated that he is here representing the applicant. They agree with staff and accept all condition. Commissioner Skinner asked if this is a business that gives short term loans at high interest rates. Kjelden Cundiff stated that the loan terms are for one year. Bruce Cooley stated that their business is licensed by the state and provides an alternative to payday loans. Commissioner Kimball stated that there are already several payday loan places in Pahrump. Commissioner Tolladay asked what the ranges of interest rates were and what the maximum loan amount was. Bruce Cooley stated that the maximum loan amount is two thousand dollars and the interest rate is two hundred percent. There was further discussion regarding interest rates, loan amounts, and loan payments. Commissioner Tolladay stated that he didn t feel this was a benefit to the community.

TA : Discussion, direction and decision regarding Bill : A Bill proposing to amend Nye County Code 17.04, the Pahrump Regional Planning District Zoning Regulations, by amending Sections Definitions, and , RH 9.5 and RH 4.5 the Rural Homestead Residential Districts, by adding Agricultural Commercial Uses (Indoor) to be allowed subject to a Conditional Use Permit (CUP), and other matters properly related thereto. Commissioner Borasky stated that he had asked the Planning Department to put this on the agenda. Commissioner Kimball stated there had been some request for agricultural zoning. It has been determined that purely agricultural zoning wasn t necessary. What was needed was an amendment to the uses allowed within the residential districts. Certain types of new agriculture are being proposed. A Conditional Use Permit would allow control of the conditions under which they operate. Jack Lohman stated that basically the bill was amended to require Conditional Use Permits and also gives interpretive powers to the zoning administrator.

Motion to approve passes 6-0 c. TA : Discussion and direction regarding a proposal to amend NCC and 800, the Definitions Section and the Home Occupation Regulations Cheryl Beeman stated that this item had been brought back at the request of the board. Staff is asking what thoughts and ideas the board has. Currently the existing standards say that the home occupation must take place within the dwelling unit. The biggest issue now is that people want to have home occupations in their garage or detached accessory structure. Planning currently is unable to permit these home occupations. Commissioner Kimball asked if the language was developed or if planning wanted the board to develop the language. Commissioner Murray stated that she thought this bill was at a point where the language was already developed. Jack Lohman stated that there was some miscommunication and he was not sure whether the board wanted to bring the concept back or a new bill. Cheryl Beeman stated that this would need to be looked at next month. PRPC September 12, 2007 Meeting Minutes Page 25 of 27

26 22. Discussion and Direction Concerning Items for Future Meetings/Workshops; Set Date, Location and Time of Future Pahrump Regional Planning Commission Meetings Commissioner Kimball stated that there has been discussion of a site plan requirement for master plan amendments, at least a conceptual site plan. This would need to be in the ordinance. He asked Mr. Lohman how he felt about presenting a recommended wording to the RPC. Jack Lohman stated that the old code did have a requirement for site plan submittal, Ordinance 299. It was taken out in April He stated that he recommends that the board directs the Planning Department to do research and present the board with the wording for a site plan requirement. Commissioner Murray stated that a conceptual site plan doesn t show what is needed. Commissioner Tolladay stated that his concern is that the RPC is mandated to operating the best they can and this will help the RPC make better and clearer decisions. Commissioner Opatik stated that she would like to see the vision that these people have. Commissioner Skinner stated that he is let down by the site plans so far and better site plans should be required. Commissioner Kimball directed the Planning Department staff to bring forth the wording for the requirement of site plans. Commissioner Tolladay stated that he is looking at the accessory building sizes allowed in different zoning areas. He stated that he will get back to everyone with additional information. Jack Lohman stated that he has been looking into the Frontage Rd. zoning. He wants to do a study and make the zoning more consistent. Commissioner Borasky stated that this area seems to be an oversight. Jack Lohman stated that he did get a quote from Radio Shack on additional microphones and mixers for less than $ Commissioner Kimball stated that the agenda needs to try to be limited to ten major items. He asked how to proceed in controlling the agenda without violating people s rights to have their stuff heard in a certain amount of time. Commissioner Borasky stated that there is too much chit chat, just stay focused on the item. Jack Lohman stated that we could use batching, Jack Lohman stated that next months meeting is going to be just as long as this one. Commissioner Kimball stated that he would rather the public went home satisfied than feeling rushed thru. He asked the Planning Department do their best to try to limit the size of the agenda. Jack Lohman asked if next months meeting should start early. Commissioner Kimball stated yes, October s meeting will start at 4:00p.m. 17.
