Chair Perthuis recognized that, apart from car washes and self -storage, group homes
are permitted by right,
Committee Member Baran commented that group homes have state rights depending on
the use but require more clarification on the city stance,
Chair Perthuls acknowledged several instances where other residents questioned how
some projects were approved and referred them to the code for that zoning district. Chair
Perthuis noted that he is not sure if permitted by right is a benefit or a detriment.
Clark asked the Committee if they noticed any businesses produced in industrial zoned
districts that underperformed.
Committee Member Baran suggested to add a category or definition for the mini flex
warehouse.

employment.
Nelson asked the Committee if they noticed any uses under business park or industrial
that are outdated or unnecessary.
Chair Perthuis inquired about the lack of an artist studio and gallery under the business
park district, and questioned consumer repair.
Committee Member Hellmann noted that medical office is currently not allowed in
business park.
Clark inquired about uses that are overly restricted to certain zoning districts.
Chair Perthuis noted that he does not think that accessory dwelling units should require a
special use permit due to the public meetings and residents' negative reactions.
Committee Member Baran agreed and noted that an HOA would be able to monitor
accessory dwelling units.
Discussion on accessory dwelling units.
Committee Member Rodocker asked about the zoning district for mobile housing in
Georgetown. Clark noted that mobile homes are allowed in manufactured housing
districts.
Travis Baird, Assistant Planning Director, commented that accessory dwelling units will
not populate in zoning categories that allow multiple dwelling units on the property.
Committee Member Baran noted the challenges for RV Parks in the appropriate zoning
district and recommended that applicants include the project's final plan into the
application. Committee Member Baran also suggested in allowing a special use permit
over multiple zonings.
Discussion on RV Parks and zoning.
Clark referred to pages 6-10 of the Zoning District Use Table and asked if there are
more uses that may be allowed.
Chair Perthuis asked for the difference between an inn and boutique.
Jessica Lemanski, Associate Planner, referred to Chapter 16 of the Unified Development
Code.
Discussion on the parameters of an inn and bed and breakfast.
Committee Member Rodocker asked for clarity on limited service and full service.
Clark referred to Chapter 16 of the Unified Development Code. Clark asked the
Committee if the listed hotel uses were necessary and if it can be simplified or if
limitations should be placed.
Committee Member Baran suggested limiting the number of beds and events.
Baird established that the difference between a hotel full service and hotel limited
service via the use chart is the requirement for a Special Use Permit in a Mixed -Use
Downtown versus a disallowance. Baird noted that hotel full service is permitted in
Mixed -Use Downtown, whereas hotel limited service is not permittable in Mixed -Use
Downtown.
Discussion on full and limited service.
Baird inquired about the necessity for clear parameters defining the boundaries
between full service and limited service.
Chair Perthuis suggested a clear definition to understand why hotel limited service
does not require a special use permit.
Committee Member Baran commented on adding whether the service includes certain
amenities such as a restaurant or pool.
Clark asked the Committee if there is a category of regular use such as a coffee shop
that may be a possibility in residential use areas.
Committee Member Baran questioned why drive -through was not permitted in the
office district and suggested in allowing a bar, tavern, and pub in the business park
district.
Clark inquired about uses that are currently overly abundant.
Committee Member Baran commented on the lack of a zoning category for permanent
make-up and suggested categorizing it as medical.
Lemanski established that microblading and permanent make-up is categorized under
personal services.

Chair Perthuis agreed and noted the necessity of a clear definition.
