PUBLIC HEARING MAYOR PRO TEM SCHMIDT DECLARED THE PUBLIC HEARING OPEN FOR RECEIVING CITIZEN INPUT ON ALTERNATIVE PROPOSED SPRAY PAINTING REGULATIONS It was noted that the Hearing had been duly published as required by law. There were no adverse communications received by the City Clerk. Mr. Max Bigby, Assistant City Planner, stated "Auto detail shops have never been defined. Therefore, it has never been made clear that such shops cannot do the same work in a C-1 zone that auto- body shops do in an I-1 zone, or C-3 zone by special permit. Secondly, the Zoning Ordinance never explicitly required autobody shops to have a spray paint booth or room Both of the above zoning problems have led to spray paint activities which have generated numerous complaints." A communication from the City Manager was read as follows "After council discussion of this issue in September and your direction that a more straight-forward approach be developed, staff has re-examined the issue in that light Our conclusion is that Councilman Snider's suggestion is generally embodied in the Uniform Fire Code and we can administratively outline its application to those spray painting operations using volatile paint materials Thus, we recommend no action by Council in regards to the Fire Code Continued Next Page Ordinance No. 2568 was read by title only. Mr. Snider moved to adopt Ordinance No. 2568, adding or revising zoning regulations for auto detail shops and autobody shops, as described therein Seconded by Mrs. Boothe Motion carried by roll call vote of four (4) Councilman Green voting no. Councilmen Boothe, Snider, Morgan and Schmidt voting yes III ORDINANCES/RESOLUTIONS NOT RELATED TO PUBLIC HEARINGS MINUTES PASCO CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING OCTOBER 7, 1985 PUBLIC HEARING - Continued However, the Community Development Department has correctly noted the absence of zoning definition of "auto detail shop" and the need for amendment of the Zoning definition of "auto body shop", thus, staff has prepared an Ordinance which will 1 Define "auto detail shop" to include cleaning and polishing, but excluding any body work or painting, 2. Define "auto body shop" to include the requirement for a paint booth per UBC/UFC standards, 3. Specify that "auto detail shops" are permitted in the C-1 zone. We believe these zoning clarifications will avoid the majority of problems identified in the discussion last month and avoid "over-regulation " Following three (3) calls for further comments, either for or against, the public hearing was declared closed.
