AND THEN A SECOND ITEM THAT WE NEED TO ADD TO THE AGENDA.

NUMBER TWO IS THE APPOINTMENT TO THE SOCIAL SERVICES ADVISORY BOARD.

SO WE NEED TO ADD TWO ADDITIONAL ITEMS CORRECTLY.

AND JUSTIN APOLOGIZE UNDER SECTION.

I BELIEVE WHY HANDWRITING IS PROBABLY ADDITIONAL NEW BUSINESS.

AND I WAS LOOKING FOR THAT ACTUALLY.

DARN IT.

OKAY.

IS THERE A SECOND TERM? IS, IS OST, UM, ADDITIONS ROW HOME IS A SHIRAKI MR. MAINE, MRS. COOK, MADAM CHAIR.

I MRS. OATES, MR. BUTLER, RIGHT AT THIS TIME,

[C. Public Comment Period (60 Minute Time Limit)]

TIME.

PUBLIC COMMENT.

TIME IS A 60 MINUTE TIME PERIOD.

UH, WITH PUBLIC HEARINGS TONIGHT, WE WILL STOP AT SEVEN 30 AND THEN PICK UP THE REMAINDER OF THE TIME AFTER THAT, IF NEEDED.

UM, PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD IS A THREE MINUTE TIME LIMIT.

ALL COMMENTS WILL BE DIRECTED TO THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS, NOT TO THE AUDIENCE, BE CONSIDERED OF YOUR FELLOW SPEAKERS.

THERE SHOULD BE NO APPLAUSE, BOOING OR OTHER AUDIBLE DISRUPTION TO THE PROCEEDINGS THROUGH A SHOW OF HANDS.

THE CHAIRMAN MAY AS FOR A SHOW OF SUPPORT FOR COMMENTS MADE BY SPEAKERS, PLACARDS POSTERS, AND OTHER MEANS OF VISUAL DISPLAY OF COMMENTS WILL NOT BE PERMITTED IN THE BOARD ROOM MEETING ROOM.

THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE INFORMATION OR MATERIALS USED AS PART OF A FACTUAL PRESENTATION TO THE BOARD.

AND AT THE HEARING, THE BOARD WILL NOT TOLERATE PERSONAL ATTACKS BY ANYONE ON ANY OTHER PARTICIPANTS IN THE PROCEEDINGS.

ANYONE WHO VIOLATES THE GUIDELINE OF THE PUBLIC HEARING MAY BE ASKED TO LEAVE BY THE CHAIRMAN FAILURE TO LEAVE THE PUBLIC HEARING WHEN ASKED TO DO SO IS IN VIOLATION OF WARREN COUNTY CODE 56 DASH FOUR AND CODE OF VIRGINIA 18.2 DASH FOUR 15 AND IS SUBJECT TO A FINE OF UP TO $2,500 IN A JAIL SENTENCE UP TO 12 MONTHS, EITHER BOTH.

THIS IS ROCKY.

HAS ANYONE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK, I GUESS MADAM CHAIR, MATT TEDRICK.

YES, SIR.

UH, MATT TEETER FRONT ROYAL, UH, GOOD EVENING.

MADAM CHAIR, MEMBERS OF THE BOARD.

UH, THE LAST MEETING, UM, I WAS PREVENTED FROM FINISHING MY COMMENTS AFTER THREE SENTENCES, UH, DUE TO THE INTERPRETATION THAT I WAS PERSONALLY ATTACKING.

I HAD DONE THE WHO YET, BUT, UH, SO, BUT TONIGHT, UM, I'M GONNA TRY A DIFFERENT APPROACH.

SO TONIGHT I'M GONNA BE THANKFUL AND I'M GONNA THANK MANY PEOPLE TONIGHT.

UM, SO, UH, MY, MY ATTORNEY DID, I DID SHARE WITH MY ATTORNEY, THE I'M THANKFUL FOR MY ATTORNEY BECAUSE, UH, HE GAVE ME SOME, UH, LEGAL COUNSEL AS IT RELATES TO MY RIGHTS.

UM, YOU ARE WITHIN YOUR AUTHORITY TO DO WHAT YOU DID BY STOPPING ME UNDER YOUR INTERPRETATION OF A PERSONAL ATTACK.

UH, MY ATTORNEY WAS SHOCKED AND DISMAYED THAT YOU DID THAT AND ENCOURAGED ME TO CONTINUE TO COME AND SPEAK IN THE HOPES THAT THE BOARD ACTUALLY LISTENED TO WHAT I HAVE TO SAY.

UM, SO TONIGHT MS. COLLARS, I WANT TO THANK YOU, UH, FOR PREVENTING ME, UM, FROM CHALLENGING THIS BOARD AND ASKING FOR ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY, BECAUSE BY PREVENTING ME, UH, YOU EXPOSE YOUR TRUE MOTIVE.

SO I'M THANKFUL FOR THAT.

UM, I'M THANKFUL FOR STEVIE HUBBARD AND CHRIS NELSON WHO ARE TWO PRIVATE CITIZENS, UM, POLITICALLY WE'RE ON DIFFERENT.

UM, WE HAVE DIFFERENT VIEWS, DIFFERENT OPINIONS.

THEY'RE, THEY'RE LIBERAL.

UM, I'M MORE CONSERVATIVE, BUT, UM, I DO WANT TO THANK THEM FOR HAVING THE COURAGE TO, UM, GO PUBLIC

[00:05:01]

ARE YOU GOING TO GO DOWN THIS ROAD AGAIN? I I'D LIKE TO STOP AND ASKED.

I DON'T WANT TO BE MISINTERPRETING THIS WRONG, BUT CALLING OUT SOMEONE, UM, WITH ACCUSATIONS, AM I WRONG TO INTERPRET THAT AS GOING DOWN THE ROAD OF A PERSONAL ATTACK? I THINK THAT IF THERE ARE ANY SPECIFIC ACCUSATIONS AGAINST SOMEONE THAT, THAT WOULDN'T BE A PERSONAL ATTACK, I'M NOTING THAT THE SPEAKER HAS BEEN VERY CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT HE SAID SO FAR, AND I'M NOT SURE THAT I'VE HEARD OF A SPECIFIC ATTACK YET, BUT IF YOU DO HEAR ONE, THEN, UH, I THINK YOU WOULD BE WITHIN YOUR RIGHTS TO ASK HIM TO STOP.

OKAY.

AND I'LL RELY ON YOU TO HELP ME WITH THAT, SIR.

THANK YOU.

YEP.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

UM, SO I ALSO WANT TO THANK THE PRESS I'D LIKE TO THANK MR. BIANCHINI, NORMA, JEAN SHAW AND NOWHERE, VIRGINIA DAILY.

UM, FOR NOT ASKING THE TOUGH QUESTIONS, UM, THAT NEED TO BE ASKED TO, UM, A PARTICULAR SUPERVISOR WHO, UH, WHO ALLEGEDLY, UM, OBTAINED A CONFIDENTIAL ATTORNEY CLIENT PRIVILEGE REPORT FROM THE TOWN OF FRONT ROYAL, UM, BECAUSE WHAT THEY HAVE DONE IS THEY HAVE EXPOSED THEMSELVES.

UM, I DO WANT TO THANK THIS BOARD FOR, UM, UM, UH, NOT BEING TRANSPARENT AND NOT HOLDING, UH, MR. MABE ACCOUNTABLE, UM, BECAUSE OF YOUR, YOUR SILENCE, YOUR SILENCE IS CONDONING WHAT ALLEGEDLY HAPPENED, AND THAT'S ALL I'VE BEEN ASKING FOR.

I'VE BEEN ASKING FOR, UM, MR. MADE TO, TO STATE ON THE RECORD, WHAT HE DID, AND I'M ASKING FOR THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS TO HOLD HIM ACCOUNTABLE FOR WHAT HE DID.

IT'S ALL I'VE BEEN ASKING FOR.

SO WITH THAT, I WILL END MY COMMENTS FOR TONIGHT.

AND, UM, I LOOK FORWARD HOPEFULLY FOR THIS BOARD TO HOLD MR. MAVE ACCOUNTABLE.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

MA'AM UM, MY REPORT, UM, W A LITTLE LATE IN THE GAME, BUT BETTER, LATE THAN NEVER JANUARY 9TH WAS NATIONAL LAW ENFORCEMENT APPRECIATION DAY.

AND I JUST WANT TO EXTEND OUR, THANK YOU TO ALL LAUREN LAW ENFORCEMENT FOR, UM, THE JOB THEY DO PUT IN THEIR FAMILY.

SECOND AND US FIRST, A LOT OF TIMES I'M OUT IN THE WEATHER THAT WE'VE HAD THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS, IS IT ESPECIALLY TRYING? SO WE DO APPRECIATE YOU ALL.

I ALSO WANT TO THANK OUR PUBLIC WORKS PARK AND REC STAFF, SOLID WASTE STAFF FOR THE WORK THEY DID PLOW ON ROADS AND THE SANITARY DISTRICT PARKING LOTS AND THEIR CONVENIENT SITES.

UM, THIS WAS A NASTY SNOW EVENT TO DEAL WITH.

AND, UM, I RODE THE ROAD YESTERDAY AND I THINK THEY'VE DONE A DARN GOOD JOB WITH WHAT THEY HAD TO WORK WITH OUT THERE.

SO WE APPRECIATE THEM AS WELL.

UH, ROAD REPORT FOR SOUTH RIVER, WITH THE TEMPERATURES.

THE TICE IS A TYPE OF SNOW AND ICE.

UH, I THINK IN THE WIND ON TOP OF IT, V DOT, UH, HAD THE MAIN ROADS IN GOOD CONDITION BY MID-AFTERNOON YESTERDAY, SECONDARY AND NON HERTZ, HARD SURFACE ROADS.

THEY WERE PASSABLE.

YOU MIGHT NOT WANT TO TRY THEM, BUT THEY WERE PASSABLE.

AND, UM, AS GOOD AS YOU COULD GET FOR THAT WEATHER CONDITION.

AND TODAY, I THINK THEY WERE IMPROVED WITH A LITTLE BIT OF RISE IN THE TEMPERATURES.

SO WE APPRECIATE EVERYTHING VIA IT DOES FOR US AS WELL.

UH, WITH MORE WEATHER FORECASTED THIS WEEK, I, UM, WANT TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO BE PREPARED AND STAY HOME IF YOU CAN.

THAT CERTAINLY MAKES LAW ENFORCEMENT V DOT EVERYONE'S JOB BETTER WHEN YOU'RE NOT ON THE ROAD, UM, IN THEIR WAY, TRYING TO DO STUFF, THE FEWER VEHICLES, THE EASIER AND SAFER IT IS FOR ALL.

UM, ALSO WANT TO REMIND PEOPLE BEING A NURSE.

UH, I CAN, WELL, REMEMBER THE AMOUNT OF INCREASE IN CARDIAC ARREST DUE TO SHOVELING SNOW.

YOU NEED TO PACE YOURSELF.

UM, YOU DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOUR AGE IS.

YOU GET OUT THERE IN THE EXTREME COLD TEMPERATURES, SHOVELING THAT STUFF.

IT, IT DOESN'T TAKE YOUR HEART RHYTHM LONG TO GET OUT OF WHACK.

SO PACE YOURSELF, GO BACK IN AND REST.

IT'S GOING TO BE THERE WHEN YOU COME BACK OUT PROBABLY A LITTLE BIT MORE, UM, I SAY, JUST HIRE SOMEBODY YOUNGER WITH THEM.

HAVE THEY, UM, HAVE YOUR CARS SUPPLIED? MY FAMILY MAKES FUN OF ME ALL THE TIME BECAUSE I, YOU KNOW, I TRY TO HAVE BLANKET AND SNACKS, UM, CANDY BAR, PEANUT BUTTER, AND CRACKERS, WHATEVER, SOMETHING THAT IS, YOU KNOW, A TATTOO OVER.

I'M SURE EVERYBODY THAT WAS ON, ON 95 A WEEK OR SO AGO, WISHED THAT THEY HAD SOME OF THIS STUFF, A FLASHLIGHT MAKE SURE THAT YOUR CAR'S FULL OF GAS.

I KNOW THESE ARE NO BRAINERS, BUT PEOPLE, THEY DO IT ALL THE TIME.

I, YOU KNOW, YOU, YOU THINK, OH, I'LL DO IT TOMORROW, HAVE A CAR CHARGER IN THERE BECAUSE THAT'S CELL PHONES A MIGHTY HANDY THING, UNLESS YOU'RE OUT OF SERVICE AREA.

UM, AND MAKE SURE YOU TELL SOMEBODY WHERE YOU'RE GOING SO THAT IF YOU DON'T GET TO WHERE YOU WERE, THEY HAVE A GOOD IDEA OF WHERE TO START LOOKING.

UM, AND I'D LIKE TO ASK FOR A LITTLE BIT OF, UH, PATIENCE, UNDERSTANDING AND KINDNESS AT OUR SOLID WASTE CONVENIENCE SITES.

THESE GUYS ARE DOING A JOB.

NOT MANY PEOPLE WANT TO DO, AND WE'RE NOT TREATING THEM THE BEST AT ALL TIMES.

AND THEY CAN'T HELP IT, THAT THE CONNECTOR'S FULL, THEY'RE DOING THEIR BEST, BUT THEY'VE, THEY'VE GOT WHAT THEY'VE GOT AND WE WERE WORKING ON SOLUTIONS, UH, BUT WE WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR COOPERATION THERE.

AND ALSO I MEANT TO GET THIS, UM, BUT OUR FIRE AND RESCUE STAFF HAS BEEN, UM, AWFULLY BUSY.

MY UNDERSTANDING IS WE'RE STARTING TO GET ANOTHER COVID TESTING SITE OUT, UH, THAT THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH IS DOING THAT OUT AT, UM, THE PUBLIC HEALTH YANG.

THAT WAS ANOTHER THING I WANTED TO GET OUT THAT, UM, HOPEFULLY THERE YOU GO.

UM, IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOING TO BE WEDNESDAYS AND STARTING JANUARY TOMORROW.

UH, JANUARY 19TH, THE 26TH, FEBRUARY 2ND, ONE UNTIL THREE.

AND IT'S OUT AT THE GYM AT 15TH STREET SCHOOL.

SO I UNDERSTAND IT'S BEEN CHALLENGING TO BE ABLE TO GET TESTED, AND THESE ARE GOING TO BE FREE TESTS,

[00:15:01]

AND THAT'S ALL I HAVE.

SO I'LL SEND IT OVER TO YOU, DR.

DAILY, SINCE THE BOARD WILL NOT BE HAVING AN ADVANCED WITH STAFF TOMORROW, EVERYBODY CAN GO OUT TO THE BAND ROOM ON 15TH STREET AND GET THEIR COVID TEST.

THERE YOU GO.

IT WOULD BE A GOOD TIME TO DO THAT, UH, BECAUSE OF THE NUMBER TWO, THE ONE, THE WEATHER INCIDENTS THAT ARE ANTICIPATED, AND TWO, BECAUSE OF THE STAFF SHORTAGES WE HAVE WITH COVID RIGHT NOW, UH, THE ADVANCE FOR TOMORROW WITH STAFF AND THE ADVANCE WITH THE TOWN ON SATURDAY ARE BOTH POSTPONED AND WE WILL RESCHEDULE THEM, UH, REMIND YOU WHEN WE DO THAT, THAT YOU HAVE THE GOALS LISTED IN YOUR BOOK HERE, AND EVERYBODY HAS NOT TURNED THEIR SHEETS BACK IN GIVING THE PRIORITIES SO THAT WE CAN CONSOLIDATE THOSE BACK IN AND BRING THEM BACK TO YOU IN ANOTHER MEETING, WHICH WE WILL DO IN TIME WITH THE STAFF.

SO WE WILL BE COMING BACK TO DO THAT.

UM, THE MOST IMPORTANT NEWS I HAVE FOR THE DAY IS WE ANTICIPATE MRS. LOGAN WILL BE BACK IN THE OFFICE TOMORROW.

WONDERFUL NEWS.

WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THAT.

YES.

AND, UH, MR. BOWMAN, PUTTING YOU ON THE SPOT.

I KNOW, BUT IF YOU HAD ANY REPORT, I HAVE NOTHING TO REPORT.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, SIR.

IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION FROM THE REST OF THEIR QUESTIONS? SO I HAVE A QUESTION.

SO, UH, WHO'S ON THE IT COMMITTEE.

AND WHEN IS THAT COMMITTEE MEETING AND HAVE THOSE DECISIONS BEEN MADE? BECAUSE I SEE THAT WE'VE JUST ASSIGNED COMMITTEES, BUT BECAUSE THAT IS A BRAND NEW COMMITTEE, IT APPEARS THAT THE CHAIR, AND I

[00:20:01]

I KNOW THE IT DEPARTMENT WILL BE, AND AS LONG AS YOU ONLY HAVE TWO MEMBERS COME TO THE MEETING AND YOU CAN ROTATE IT, HOWEVER YOU WOULD LIKE, AND WE'LL FIGURE OUT A ROTATION SYSTEM.

MOST OF THE COMMITTEES THIS TIME WILL BE WITH ROTATING AND WE'LL, WE'LL FIGURE OUT A SCHEDULE.

SO EVERYBODY KNOWS WHERE THEY ARE ON THAT ROAD, BECAUSE I'D LIKE TO PARTICIPATE AS WELL.

SINCE I HAVE SOME RECRUITING BACKGROUND FOR THAT PARTICULAR AREA, I THINK THAT MAYBE I CAN PROVIDE SOME INSIGHT INTO SALARY, UM, DIFFICULTY IN IDENTIFYING TALENT, BECAUSE THOSE ARE ALL CHALLENGES I FACE EVERY DAY, I WOULD SAY SHE NEEDS TO BE ON THE FIRST ROTATION THEN.

ABSOLUTELY.

ABSOLUTELY.

SO THE IT USERS COMMITTEE IS A GROUP OF USERS, BASICALLY THE DIFFERENT DEPARTMENT HEADS OR THE REPRESENTATIVES THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY GOVERNMENT OFFICES.

I'VE NEVER LOOKED AT THAT AS AN ADVISORY COMMITTEE.

IT'S MORE JUST ABOUT OUR USERS COMMITTEE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE USERS ARE GETTING WHAT THEY NEED SPECIFICALLY.

SO THE FIRST ONE WILL BE, UM, MRS. BOOKLET, MRS. OATS, AND THEN WE'LL FIGURE OUT THE NEXT ONE GOING TO BE A MONTHLY MEETING.

IS THAT WHAT THE THIRD THURSDAY OF EVERY MONTH IS THE GAME PLAN AT 10:00 AM? AND I THINK WE HAVE, AT THIS POINT 21 OR 22 PEOPLE WHO'VE SAID THEY'RE GOING TO BE THERE.

[I. Additional New Business (If needed)]

THERE WAS NO PARTICULAR TIME, MINUTE.

UH TIME-LIMITED.

IT WILL BE SLIGHTLY OUT OF ORDER, BUT I DON'T THINK THAT CREATES A LEGAL PROBLEM AS LONG AS THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY CONSENTS TO THAT.

UM, IS EVERYBODY IN AGREEMENT TO GO ON ADDITIONAL NEW BUSINESS INSTEAD OF A 10 MINUTE OR EIGHT MINUTE BREAK? I THINK THAT WE SHOULD USE OUR TIME EFFICIENTLY.

YES, I AGREE.

WELL, WHY DON'T WE DO ROLL CALL TO SO EVERYBODY KNOWS WHERE MR. BUTLER, MRS. OATES, MADAM CHAIR, MRS. COOK.

SO, UH, FIRST PUBLIC HEARING IS CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 2021 DASH 11 DASH OH THREE, JOSHUA BRANSON FOR A GUEST HOUSE LOCATED OFF BOOK MOUNTAIN ROAD AND IDENTIFIED ON TAX MAP 37 AS LOT 56.

MR. WINDLEY, THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING THIS USE IN ORDER TO CONSTRUCT THE PRINCIPAL DWELLING FOR HIS BROTHER AND OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS.

AND THEN THE GAS HOUSE WOULD BE A SECONDARY DWELLING FOR USE BY THE APPLICANT AND FAMILY MEMBERS.

PART-TIME THE PROPERTY IS 123 ACRES AND WAS PURCHASED IN 2019.

AND THE OWNERS MR. BRANSON, HIS BROTHER PLANNED TO LEAVE, HAVE A FAMILY SUBDIVISION SUBMITTED TO THE COUNTY.

ONCE THE PROPERTY MEETS THE COUNTY SUBDIVISION REQUIREMENT OF BEING OWNED FOR FIVE YEARS, THEY PLAN TO PLACE THE GUEST HOUSE IN A LOCATION THAT ALLOWS FOR THE SUBDIVISION TO BE APPROVED WHEN THAT TIME COMES, THEY UNDERSTAND THAT THE GUEST HOUSE IS FOR NON-COMMERCIAL USE AND NOT TO BE USED FOR FULL-TIME OCCUPANCY AND WILL BE USED FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND IS NOT A SHORT-TERM TOURIST RENTAL.

UM, THIS WILL ALSO ALLOW THE APPLICANT TO HAVE A PLACE TO STAY WHEN HE IS IN TOWN.

AND WHEN HIS MOTHER RELATIVES COME TO VISIT, UM, UH, STAFF IS RECOMMENDING THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS WHICH HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION.

NUMBER ONE, THE GUEST HOUSE SHALL NOT BE USED FOR FULL-TIME OCCUPANCY.

NUMBER TWO, THE ACCESSORY DWELLING SHALL NOT BE USED FOR COMMERCIAL RENTAL OR LEASING OF ROOMS FOR COMPENSATION OF ANY KIND.

AND THAT IT IS LIMITED TO PART-TIME OCCUPANCY UP TO SIX MONTHS.

AND NUMBER FIVE, AFTER THE APPROVAL BY THE COUNTY AND RECORDATION OF A FAMILY SUBDIVISION OF THE GUEST HOUSE, LOT THIS CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT SHALL BECOME NULL AND VOID.

I WILL ALSO MENTION THAT THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT HAD, HAS GIVEN APPROVAL FOR, UH, TWO BUILDINGS SITES, ONE, UH, FOR A SIX PERSON OCCUPANCY FOR FOUR BEDROOMS AND ANOTHER FOR A THREE BEDROOM, 6% OCCUPANCY.

THIS PUBLIC HEARING HAS BEEN PROPERLY ADVERTISED.

ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED.

I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

WOULD THE APPLICANT LIKE TO SPEAK AT THIS TIME? OKAY.

PUBLIC HEARING IS NOW OPEN.

DOES THE BOARD HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR EITHER THE APPLICANT AND MR. WIDLEEN AT THIS TIME? I'VE GOT IT.

I'VE GOT A SIMPLE QUESTION.

AND MAYBE I'M JUST COMPLETELY OUT ON THIS, BUT WHY IS IT JUST LISTED AS A SHELBY, NOT USED FOR FULL-TIME OCCUPANCY OF FAMILIES GOING TO USE IT? UH, I BELIEVE THE DEFINITION, UM, STATES THAT IT CAN'T BE USED FOR FULL-TIME OCCUPANCY, UM, ANYTIME WITHIN THE FIVE-YEAR PERIOD AT ANY TIME, ANY GUEST HOUSE, ANY GUEST HOUSE, BECAUSE THEN IT BECOMES A GUEST HOUSE.

IT BECOMES A RESIDENCE, RIGHT.

IT BECOMES A RESIDENCE.

I UNDERSTAND COMPLETELY.

OKAY.

WE ONLY ALLOW FOR ONE DWELLING BY, RIGHT.

AND THIS IS THE ONLY CAVEAT TO THAT,

[00:30:01]

OR THE GUEST HOUSE IS SETTING OFF TO THE SIDE OR SOME, SOME THING.

YOU CAN COME BACK UP, UM, UM, IN, UH, UM, OUR ATTORNEYS ACTUALLY ALREADY ADDRESSED AND THOROUGHLY REVIEWED OUR COMPETENCE AND RESTRICTIONS AND ADDRESS THE FACT THAT I'M ACTUALLY NOT A PRECLUDED FROM OUR COVENANTS AND RESTRICTIONS, UH, PROVIDED THAT THE COUNTY APPROVES OUR PROCESS.

SO, UH, ESSENTIALLY LIKE ANYWHERE AS LONG AS WE'D GO THROUGH THE TYPICAL PROCESS AND IT'S APPROVED BY THE COUNTY, IT'S ACCEPTABLE BY THE COVENANTS AND RESTRICTIONS AND THE AHLA.

OKAY.

SO, SO JUST AS LONG AS IT'S NOT WITHIN THE COVENANTS AND THE RESTRICTIONS, THE BOARD, THE HOA BOARD CAN DECIDE WHATEVER THEY WANT, BUT RIGHT.

BASICALLY THEY SAY, WE APPROVE THIS IF YOU APPROVE THIS.

RIGHT.

WELL, I HAVE, UH, A QUESTION TO FOLLOW UP, I GUESS, TO THAT.

AND THEN I HAVE ONE OTHER QUESTION.

UM, I KNOW YOU HAVE ANOTHER SHORT-TERM RENTAL THERE AND WE HAVE QUITE A LOT AND ARE ACCUMULATING MORE.

UM, SO QUESTION TO YOU, IS, HAS THERE BEEN ANY ISSUES OR ANYTHING NEGATIVE? I HAVEN'T HEARD ANY WITH WHAT YOU HAVE NOW, MAYBE THAT WOULD HELP ANSWER, YOU KNOW, PART OF, UM, THE QUESTION AND THEN MR. WYNN LANE OF VIEW WOULD SAY HOW IN GENERAL, THE SHORT-TERM RENTALS ARE DOING ANY COMPLAINT LEVEL THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY.

SO HAVE YOU, WELL, I CAN GIVE YOU A LIST OF THE THINGS THAT WE DID.

WE'VE HAD NO COMPLAINTS FROM ANY NEIGHBORS.

AND IN FACT, THE LETTER THAT WAS SENT TODAY WAS FROM AARON MILLS.

HE IS OUR ONLY DIRECT NEIGHBOR AND OUR ONE OF OTHER THREE DIRECT NEIGHBORS SITTING RIGHT HERE WITH HIS OWN APPLICATION THIS EVENING.

AND ANOTHER NEIGHBOR EFFECT HAS HIS APPLICATION IN AS WELL ON A REVIEW SHORES DRIVE FOR SHORT-TERM RENTAL.

SO HE WAS HERE AT PREVIOUS MEETINGS OF OUR LAST CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND SUPPORT.

AND, UH, WE HAD QUITE A TURNOUT IN FACT OF SUPPORT AT OUR LAST ONE.

SO, UM, IT'S IMPORTANT TO EMPHASIZE.

WE HAVE, UM, THESE AIRBNB PROPERTIES IN, UM, FREDERICK COUNTY, SHENANDOAH COUNTY AND WINCHESTER CITY, AND WE HAVE A HIGH, HIGH REGULATION OVERSIGHT FOR THESE THAT WE INTEND TO, UH, IMPLEMENT AS WELL.

AND WARREN COUNTY PROVIDED THAT WE ARE APPROVED.

SO WE DON'T, UH, WE HAVEN'T HAD ANY ISSUES WITH ANY OF OUR PROPERTIES ANYWHERE.

WE DON'T ANTICIPATE ANY ISSUES GOING FORWARD, BUT ANSWERS.

THAT'S GOOD TO HEAR, YOU KNOW, W WHEN WE APPROVE THEM, WE DON'T GENERALLY HEAR BACK TOO MUCH, BUT SINCE YOU'RE HERE AND I, I'M NOT SURE IF I WAS MISINTERPRETING THAT, UM, YOU WERE MAYBE CURIOUS TO THAT EXTENT GOING AGAINST THE CURRENT.

I WAS JUST, I WAS JUST CURIOUS, CURIOUS AS TO, YOU KNOW, IF THERE WERE, IF THE, IF THE HOA BOARD CAME OUT AND SAID, NO, WE DON'T WANT THIS, OR NO, WE'RE AGAINST IT.

UH, WHAT TYPICALLY HAPPENS IN A CASE LIKE THAT, BECAUSE LIKE YOU POINTED OUT IT'S NOWHERE IN THE, IN THE COVENANTS OR ANYTHING.

AND SO THE BOARD CAN COME ALONG AND SAY, WELL, WE DON'T WANT BLUE DAFFODILS IN THE, IN THE YARD.

WELL, OKAY.

IF IT'S NOT IN WRITING, THEN THAT'S WHAT THEY DID.

OKAY.

RIGHT.

ALL RIGHT.

WELL, I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT, UM, YOU ALL HAVE, UH, YOUR OLD POSITION IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE GOING THROUGH THE PROCESS, RIGHT? SO YOU'RE THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF AUTHORITY FOR THAT PROCESS AND PROVIDED ANY APPLICANT GOES TO THAT PROCESS, TO YOUR ACCESSIBILITY.

UH, THEN, UM, IT SHOULDN'T BE SOMETHING THAT, THAT ALSO HAS TO GO THROUGH THE HOA, BUT I WANTED TO, IF YOU WOULD ALLOW ME GO FOR THE LIST, BY EXAMPLE OF THE THINGS THAT WE DISALLOW WITH OUR AIRBNBS, THAT THROUGH A LONG-TERM RENTAL

[00:40:01]

I MEAN, AND DOWN TO THE PENNY OF, IF YOU VIOLATE THEM, HOW MUCH IT'S GOING TO COST, YOU MAKE ME BEHAVE MYSELF IN YOUR RENTAL.

I TELL YOU, I ACTUALLY QUITE, I MEAN, EVERYONE'S SO NICE.

IT'S, IT'S EVERY, I AM CONSTANTLY SHOCKED HOW KIND PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY INCORRECT.

YES.

WELL, AND, AND, UH, MY, MY DAUGHTER, UH, RECENTLY GOT MARRIED AND, UH, IN ANOTHER STATE AND WE STAYED AT AN AIRBNB AND I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH, UH, WITH HOW THOROUGH THE AIRBNB WAS.

SO IT'S, UH, IT SEEMS TO BE A VERY GOOD, UH, A VERY GOOD SYSTEM THAT THEY'VE GOT VERY GOOD PROCESS THAT THEY'VE GOT IN PLACE.

SO, OKAY.

I APPRECIATE THAT YOU PEOPLE PUT ALL OF THE WINERIES BREWERIES PLACES TO GO, THE TOURISM ASPECT.

AWESOME.

AND PEOPLE GO, THEY GO, WE HEAR FEEDBACK ALL THE TIME, ALL THE TIME.

THEY WENT TO EVERY ONE THAT WAS OKAY.

WELL, WHEN YOU HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF YOUR EXPECTATIONS AND SO FORTH, UM, AND THEN IT MIGHT GO A LONG WAY WITH THE POA OR, UM, TO SEE WHAT YOUR HIGH EXPECTATIONS ARE TO GIVE THEM A LITTLE MORE COMFORT ZONE, UH, BECAUSE IT IS, THIS IS THE MOST THOROUGH I'VE SEEN OF ALL THE ONES THAT WE DO.

SO, UM, I DO IT'S TO YOUR BENEFIT AS WELL AS TO THE COMMUNITIES.

AND I APPRECIATE THAT.

SO, UM, MY QUESTION, DO YOU, MR. WINDLEY WHEN YOU SAID, AND I CAN'T THINK OF THE WORD NOW ABOUT THE HOUSE BEING IN THE FLOOD ZONE, DOES THAT MEAN IF A RIVER GOT UP AND WOULD DESTROY THAT HOME, THEY CAN'T BE REBUILT THERE, IS THAT WHAT THAT MEANS? THAT IS CORRECT.

IF IT'S IN THE FLOOD WAY, AND I BELIEVE THIS HOUSE IS ADJACENT TO A PROPERTY WHERE THE HOUSE WAS DEMOLISHED COMPLETELY NOT BY A FLOOD, BUT BY A FIRE.

AND THEY COULD NOT REBUILD THAT HOUSE.

THAT IS ONE DECLARE THE FACT THAT FOR ME, UM, AND AGAIN, YOU KNOW, THE PROPERTY OWNERS, IF, IF THERE WERE, UH, EMINENT FLOOD EVENTS, THAT KIND OF THING, I MEAN, THEY CAN, YOU KNOW, HAVE SOME FORM OF NOTIFYING THEIR GUESTS.

I MEAN, AS WE KNOW WHEN SOMETHING'S GOING TO HAPPEN WITH AT LEAST 48 HOURS, NOTICE THAT IT COULD BE A SITUATION.

SO OF COURSE WE WANT PEOPLE OUT OF THAT.

WE CAN CANCEL RESERVATIONS IMMEDIATELY.

WE CAN GET PEOPLE OUT IMMEDIATELY.

WE CAN ADDRESS THE ISSUE AGAIN, UNLIKE A PERSON THAT'S A FULL-TIME RENTER OR A HOMEOWNER, I CAN MAKE SURE THE PROPERTY IS VACANT AT THE TIME I, IT HAS TO BE RIGHT.

AND I SAW YOUR DIAGRAM OF, UH, YOU KNOW, EMERGENCY EVACUATION TYPE THING.

SO NOW IT'S, IT'S VERY THOROUGH.

THANK YOU.

OKAY.

WE'RE JUST GOING TO NEED TO HELP ME CURE THE OLD COUCHES AND ALL THE FURNITURE ALS I LIVE ALONG THE RIVER.

I'VE I'VE DONE THAT.

I KNOW WHAT THAT'S LIKE, SO, OKAY.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR OTHER MR. WYNLAN OR THE APPLICANTS? IF NOT, MRS. SHIRAKI HAS ANYONE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK, UH, TERRY HARTSON MA'AM AND IF YOU WOULD SAY YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS, I'D APPRECIATE IT.

I MEAN, IT'S REALLY MADE A BIG IMPROVEMENT TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

I JUST WISH THEM LUCK AND HOPE EVERYTHING GOES WELL FOR THANK YOU, SIR.

AND NOT SEEING ANYONE ELSE BESIDES STAFF.

I'M ASSUMING THAT'S IT.

PUBLIC HEARING IS NOW CLOSED.

IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION AT THIS POINT, OR IF NOT, IS THERE A MOTION? MADAM CHAIR, I MOVE THAT THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS APPROVED THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REQUEST OF GHILLEAN GREENFIELD AND RICHARD BUTCHER FOR THE SHORT-TERM TOURIST RENTAL, WITH THE CONDITIONS AS RECOMMENDED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION AND STAFF.

IS THERE A SECOND, SECOND ROLL CALL, MRS. SHIRAKI.

MR. MABE, MRS. COOK.

I MADAM CHAIR I MRS. OATES, MR. BUTLER,

[H.3. Conditional Use Permit 2021-11-06, Terry Hartson for a Short-Term Tourist Rental Located at 1538 Riverview Shores Drive and Identified on Tax Map 13C, Section 4, Block 6, Lot 1044 – Joe Petty]

MR. PETTY.

THANK YOU.

MADAM CHAIR AND BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.

UH, THIS APPLICATION IS VERY, OR IF NOT,

[00:45:01]

MR. HARSON DOES LIVE IN WARREN COUNTY PLANS TO ALSO HELP MANAGE AND OPERATE THAT HOME IN BETWEEN RENTALS.

AND AGAIN, IT'S LOCATED WITHIN THE FLOOD WAY.

UH, SO HE WILL HAVE THAT PART OF HIS PROPERTY MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR ANY EMERGENCY ACCESS LOCATED WITHIN SHANDO SHORES, POA THE LETTER THAT MR DISCUSSED, IT ACTUALLY ADDRESSED BOTH OF THESE APPLICATIONS, UM, AND THERE AT THAT TIME OPPOSITION AND THE JUST WHILE, WHILE I'M DISCUSSING IT BEFORE GO READ AND ALL THE CONDITIONS AS ARE THE SAME AS MR WINDLEY AND THE PREVIOUS APPLICATION.

BUT I JUST WANT TO MENTION ITS COMPATIBILITY WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

THIS PROPERTY IS ZONED R ONE, AND, UH, THIS SHORT-TERM TOURIST WEREN'T ALWAYS ALLOWED BY CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT PER THE ZONING ORDINANCE.

SO IT DOES FOLLOW THE COMP PLAN AND OUR PLANNING COMMISSION TYPICALLY STATES WITH THE SHORT-TERM RENTALS TO KIND OF FOLLOW UP ON THAT DISCUSSION IS HOW SUCCESSFUL THEY ARE, IS HOW THEY REHABBED A LOT OF TIMES OLDER HOMES THAT WERE MORE DARE LET AND THEY'VE IMPROVED THE NEIGHBORHOOD, BUT IT IS OBVIOUSLY NOT SUITABLE FOR ALL LOCATIONS, WHETHER IT BE HOA OR A TIGHT-KNIT COMMUNITY.

AND THE OTHER QUICK THING IS OBVIOUSLY IT IS CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT OF ALL THE APPROVED SHORT-TERM RENTALS.

WE'VE HAD ZERO COMPLAINTS AT THIS TIME.

IF WE DO RECEIVE COMPLAINTS, WE DO HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO, UM, COMMUNICATE WITH THE APPLICANT AND THE PROPERTY OWNER, AND BRING THAT TO YOU GUYS FOR TERMINATION, IF NEEDED, IF THEY VIOLATE ANY ZONING ORDINANCE THAT CONDITIONS OR STATE OR FEDERAL WALLS, WE DO HAVE THAT ABILITY.

SO, BUT AGAIN, OF ALL THE SHORT TERM RENTALS THAT HAVE BEEN APPROVED AT THIS TIME, WE'VE HAD ZERO COMPLAINTS.

AND, BUT AS THIS APPLICATION GOES, IF YOU DO HAVE ANY FOLLOW UP QUESTIONS, I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER THOSE.

AND APPLICANT IS HERE AS WELL.

WOULD THE APPLICANT LIKE TO SPEAK AT THIS TIME? YEAH, THAT'S WHAT MY PLAN IS AND PLAN ON GETTING ONE, UH, GO IN AND RICHARD AND FOLLOWING ALL THEIR PLANS AND THEIR MANAGEMENT TO SEE ME THROUGH IT, TO MAKE SURE THAT I'M DOING THE PROPER THING.

THAT'S, THEY'RE THOROUGH.

I DON'T THINK YOU COULD GET BETTER TEACHERS.

SO RIGHT NOW, RIGHT.

PUBLIC HEARING IS NOW OPEN.

IS THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE APPLICANT OR FOR MR. PETTY? NOT FOR ME.

OKAY.

HEARING NONE.

UM, I GOTTA ASK IT, HAS ANYONE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK? UH, YES.
