BOWLING FACILITY - DEVILLE SUBDIVISION: REZONING/ZONING AMENDMENT:
[ ;
A petition for rezoning was filed with the Planning Commission by
Andretich, Pociecha, Pociecha, and DeHann jto rezone lot 2, DeVille
Subdivision from C-2 to C-1 in order to allow a bowling facility.
Town Planner Bill Van Horn commented that Outdoor amusements are a
permitted use currently in C-2 zones but there are no specific pro
visions for indoor amusements such as a bowling alley. If a bowling
alley were to be interpreted as a service,! then it would be a permitted
use in a C-1 zone. Since indoor amusements are generally less ob
jectionable than outdoor amusements. Van Horn proposed amending per-:
mitted uses in C-2 to allow indoor and outdoor amusements under special
review procedure. j
Member Blair moved the Town Attorney be directed to prepare the amend
ment as proposed and that December 21, 1976 be set as the public hearing
date for the proposed amendment, the rezohing request, and the special
review request:to be.submitted by Andretich, Pociecha, Pociecha, and DeHann
according to the proposed amendment. Member Sutter seconded the motion
and upon roll call the motion unanimously [carried.
