Chair Probst referred Commission to the Planner's memorandum dated 12-6-89, regarding the ordinance amendments for Recreational Vehicle Parking and Satellite Dish Antennae. The Planner explained he and Attorney Filla have discussed the matter, however, no amendment has been drafted at this time. Bergly recommended that since the formation of the subcommittee to study the Zoning Ordinance in general, it would be appropriate to include the recreational vehicle parking and satellite antennae as part of their review. Commission concurred to include those items in the review. There was discussion relative to enforcement of parking violations. The Deputy Clerk was directed to discuss enforcement with the City Attorney. Mr. & Mrs. Herriges, 3991 Fairview Avenue, spoke in favor of parking recreational vehicles. Mrs. Herriges noted the following issues for consideration in the review of the parking ordinance: 1. The length of RV's; most are longer than 20 ft. , 2. Defining "storage" versus "use"; it takes time to prepare the RV for a trip and it must be parked at the residence to make preparations. The vehicle may be parked for two days, then gone for two weeks, and 3. Consider those persons who may not have sufficient property to park an RV in the side or rear yards. The Herriges advised most of the winter months their RV is gone; questioned if • they could be notified of any pending amendments. Commission concurred the subcommittee study will not be completed for a few months and notification of any pending amendments to the ordinance will be published in the New Brighton Bulletin.
