t.
The Flores' were informed previously by the Fire Marshall that
the stored batteries would be a potential fire hazard and should not be
stored in the garage.
Tim Gubala, County Planner, informed the Board that the original
permit for construction of the garage was not related to this matter in that
it was not issued as approval for storage of batteries.
A neighbor, Rafael Greenstein, stated this garage is 30 feet from
his house and he was opposed to the request due to the fire hazard.
Mrs. Doris Vigdor stated her opposition to the request because the
truck, tractor-trailer, would block the view of the neighbors for the time
it was loading and unloading.
Mrs. Flores presented a report regarding the reason citizens are
concerned with the potential fire hazard, but explained the ventilation
system of the garage and why it would not be a fire hazard.
Chairman Terry recognized James Buchholtz, County Attorney, who
informed the Board that in his opinion, this constitutes the operation of
a warehouse which would call for a rezoning rather than a "Use Not Provided
For" permit and therefore, this permit is not available to the Flores'.
He stated the truck may be parked in the garage but batteries may not be
stored in the truck while parked on the premises.
On motion of Supervisor Myers and the following recorded vote,
the request was denied.
