Others Present: None Chairperson Janet Graves called the meeting to order at 7:07 PM. 2) A motion was made by Eugene Edmonds and seconded by Inge Browder to approve the minutes of the December 15, 1988 meeting as submitted. Vote was unanimous. 3) NON-CONFORMING MOBILE HOMES LOCATED IN NEWLY ANNEXED AREA. Joel Albrecht told the commission the annexation of BayMUD placed temporary "R-1" zoning on all of the property annexed. Within a 180 days the City must approve permanent zoning. During this time (180 days) we need to hold Public Hearings before the Planning & Zoning Commission and City Council as required by law. Joel Albrecht stated that in a survey of the newly annexed BayMUD area, staff found forty-six (46) existing mobile homes. Of this total twenty-four (2~) are located on individual lots and the remainder are located in five (5) clustered areas which appear to function as mobile home parks. The mobile homes located on individual lots are to be treated as a non-conforming use and structure. The "parks" may not meet other requirements such as setbacks, density, etc; but, based on precedents set in previous annexations, these "parks" may be licensed as pre-existing non-conforming uses, this will allow the "parks" to continue to function while precluding any future expansion. Staff is requesting the Commission to consider a time frame during which owners can apply for a park license, rather than issuing licenses on an open ended basis. Staff recommends a thirty (30) day grace period during which existing parks may be licensed. After the expiration of the grace period, no further licenses would be issued.
