TOWN OF OCEAN ISLE BEACH
BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS MEETING
NOVEMBER 14, 2006
AGENDA
1. The Board of Commissioners will hear comments with regards to the adoption of an ordinance establishing a moratorium with regard to special use permit applications related to Country Clubs, Beach Clubs, Community Buildings and Recreational Facilities:
a. That said moratorium is being sought as a result of the ambiguity that exists regarding special use permits for the above referenced structures. The Planning Board and the Board of Commissioners want to examine the issue and ascertain how best to address the permitting process due to the number of citizens who have raised questions regarding club/community building locations and uses.
b. Citizen input and analysis of the manner in which other communities have handled the country club/beach issue, together with concerns regarding traffic, parking, times of operation and a number of other issues need to be addressed.
c. The proposed length of the moratorium is no more than six months, said time being necessary to allow for analysis, comparison of the allowance of club uses with other municipalities, review by the planning board, staff, Board of Commissioners and public hearings.
2. The Board of Commissioners will hear comment with regards to modifications to Article III – “Special Entertainment Uses” and Article IV – “Off Street Parking” of the Town’s zoning ordinance. These modifications include addition of purpose, scope, clarification of parking plan, addition of maneuvering, barriers, drainage and standards for parking facilities and making other grammar and syntax changes for ease of reading.
