The minimum finished floor elevation shall be provided. A Motion to approve the final plat with noted condition was made by Board Member Francine Neeley and seconded by Board Member Chad Lindsey. Motion carried, 6 ayes — 0 nays. 13. Consider and discuss possible amendments to the City of Paris Zoning Ordinance Section 8- 501 Home Occupations pertaining to permitted and prohibited uses. Mack states that Clint Cheatwood has approached the City after approaching the Lamar County Health District regarding the use of an accessory building in his rear yard for improvement and licensing of a commercial catering kitchen. Staff has determined that if it is not expressly permitted, it is prohibited under the current ordinance requirements. The property is zoned Agricultural. There are some examples of spot zoning of Commercial in the area but that is not an appropriate action to recommend for the applicant to take. It is not consistent with the principal use of the property which is residential. There is an opportunity for a text amendment to the Home Occupation Ordinance. Mr. Cheatwood is here to present specific details with regard to what he plans to do. Mack asked the Commission for an opportunity for Mr. Cheatwood to approach the commission. Chairman Fendley granted permission. Clint Cheatwood, lives at 4750 Pine Mill Rd states he is the applicant. This is something he has wanted to do for a long time. He does off-site catering on a part-time basis which may be twice a month. He works full-time at Kimberly Clark and this will be very part-time. Cheatwood states that he wants to do this right and came to the Commission to ask for approval. Cheatwood states he has approximately 3.5 acres. The Commission asks staff what direction they are looking for. Andrew asks the Commission for further direction as to an administrative approval process by staff or a public hearing process to consider impact on the neighborhood etc. Fendley states it is the will of the Commission for a public hearing process. Mack states that his sense is to land somewhere between (1) one to (1.5) one and one-half acres lot in an Agricultural or One - Family Dwelling No. 1 (SF -1) zoning district. Mack states there would be restrictions on signage, or any changes to make this look like a commercial business. 14. Request items for future agendas.
