concept should be explored to further aid in enhancing the aesthetic quality of the city's <br />single-family residential neighborhoods; (b) However, the commission wanted to address <br />with staff the following: the maximum height of 9' may prohibit storage on lots, as it is <br />thought that most, if not all RVs may be higher than 9'; concern about visitors to homes for <br />vacation, and not being able to park RVs (special vehicles) temporarily; the long-standing <br />history and expectation in Paris that RVs (and other special vehicles) can be stored/parked <br />on individual single-family lots; further clarification regarding maximum allowable length <br />for RVs; do we need a broader definition of "Special Vehicles"?; How do we address <br />"expandable" trailers regarding maximum length requirements?; and (c) City Attorney <br />Stephanie Harris stated she would work with city staff to: (1) make sure legal components <br />are addressed; (2) make sure the Code of Ordinance harmonizes with the Zoning <br />Ordinance; and (3) make sure there are no legal inconsistencies with all relevant city codes <br />and ordinances. <br />Discussion at the August 14, 2017 City Council meeting. The consensus of the City <br />Council was that consideration of storage of RVs in single-family residential areas is <br />worthwhile to evaluate, and that the council wanted the commission to review other <br />aspects of RV (Special Vehicle) regulations in these residential areas that it considers <br />appropriate, and to then re -submit those recommendations to the City Council. <br />The Planning and Zoning Commission had several concerns in regards to these changes to <br />the ordinance. The Commission believes the changes should be made slowly so it does not <br />cause problems where there is none. They also would like Mr. Efrussy to look into other <br />City's Ordinances to compare. Mr. Efrussy stated he would research their concerns and <br />submit it to the commission at a later date. <br />7. Meeting adjourned at 6: 56 p.m. <br />APPROVED THIS 2" DAY OF OCTOBER, 2017 <br />0 <br />Ashley Stulupt, Secretary <br />Planning and Zoning Commission <br />
