Attachment B <br />however, pertains solely to property owned by YMCAs and YWCAs. As such this basis of the <br />appeal is irrelevant. <br />The appeal does, however, correctly cite Ordinance 1004.02 as the applicable residential district <br />zoning code. The appeal claims that urban agriculture qualifies as a"moderate impact quasi- <br />public use" under the ordinance and therefore requires a Conditional Use Permit (CUP). This is <br />the crux of the entire issue. Under the Ordinance 1004.02, a"moderate impact quasi-public use" <br />does require a CUP, whereas a`low impact quasi-public use" does not. The respective <br />definitions of such uses are found in Ordinance 1002.02. <br />For both low impact and moderate impact land uses, the following definitions apply: <br />"Publie use": a use of any area, building or structure held, used or controlled exclusively <br />for public purposes by any department or branch of any government. <br />"Quasi-publie use": any use which is essentially public as in its services rendered, although it <br />is under private control or ownership. <br />Clearly, the land use at NCPC does not satisfy the definition of "public use" as a church is not a <br />governmental use. If it is "quasi-public" then you must determine of it is "low impact" or <br />"moderate impact". Low impact is a permitted use, moderate requires a CUP. Therefore, the <br />Council must determine if the proposd land use is a"low impact quasi-public use", a"moderate <br />impact c�uasi-public use," or <br />A"low impact quasi-public use" means activities that are: <br />(1) Sponsored by a �uasi-public organization; <br />(2) The activities have minor impact on the surrounding properties, in terms of: <br />(a) traffic generation; <br />(b) hours of operation; <br />(c) activities conducted; or <br />(d) light or noise generated. <br />(3) Also, the tand use must require: <br />(a) no more than 10 employees on site for any one activity; and <br />(b) no more than 15 parking spaces for any one activity exclusive of ublic <br />assemblv. <br />(4) Further, the land use must not involve: <br />(a} retailing; <br />(c} wholesaling; or <br />(d) warehousing; <br />^ ^ Page 2 of 4 <br />� <br />
