that's

Yes,
it

any

we
wish

We.
C
C
This
is
an
application
for
a
special
exception
to
allow
commercial
stable
on
the
lot
lot
for
in
woods
and
subdivision
was
in
subdivision
as
a
20
acre
five
law
west
reading
audience
subdivision
on
Hitchcock
Parkway.
It
is
bordered
by
Fox
Chase
on
its
eastern
side
and
by
Hitchcock
woods
on
its
northern
and
western
side.
C
Karen
indicated
so
Division
two
zoned
single-family
residential,
stable
RSS,
in
that
zoning
district,
a
commercial
stable,
is
allowed
by
special
exception
in
order
for
it
to
be
approved
as
a
special
exception.
The
board
must
review
the
11
special
exception
criteria
contained
in
Section
six
thought
2.18
of
the
ordinance.
C
C
I
mentioned
a
few
seconds
ago,
parking
pads
for
three
recreational
vehicles
that
would
have
water
and
electrical
connections,
but
no
Blackwater
connect
usable
in
other
support
facilities
and
services,
such
as
that
you
would
find
for
a
statement.
Trailer
parking
with
vegetation
things
that
nature
your
application
packet
has
some
photographs
of
the
locked
lock
for
the
adjoining
lot
walk
three,
which
is
also
tan,
generally
tangentially,
part
of
the
application.
Since
the
applicants
intend
to
build
residents
and
a
pleasure
stable
on
la3,
there
was
a
photograph,
a
typical
photograph
of
what
a.
C
A
C
D
C
A
And
at
the
end
of
the
paragraph
we
need
to
talk
about
this
in
of
the
freezers.
The
first
paragraph.
Will
you
talk
in
terms
of
section
three
point?
Four
point
G
point:
six
mm-hmm:
it's
only
the
orders
and
the
date
that
you
give
and
that
reference
satellite
dish
antennas
and
not
the
item
that
we're
talking
about.
Should
we
do
something
to
have
the
ordinance
reflect
I.
Imagine
we
are
going
to
talk
about
six
and
three
point
two
point.
C
With
regard
to
the
first
side
of
me
mentioned,
the
directors
interpretation
number
two
dated
nineteen.
Ninety
nine.
The
only
reason
we
added
that
to
the
staff
report
was
that
the
applicant
had
mentioned
that
there
was
a
restriction
of
three
trailers
on
the
hey
Vlad
at
any
time,
and
that
was
based
on
this
interpretation
now
well,
when
we
looked
at
the
interpretation
and
then
tried
to
reference
the
section
three
dot,
4
dot
six
and
saw
that
that
section
not
only
did
that
still
does
regulate
satellite
dish
antennas.
C
E
C
E
C
The
best
I
could
tell
you
is
that
pleasure
and
commercial
staples
can
be
located
in
any
residential
district.
If
this
were
say
rs.15,
that
section
would
apply
and
it
would
be
very
difficult
to
locate
a
stable
in
an
RS
15
lot
that
met
this
requirement.
So
it's
basically
it's
intended
for
pleasure,
stables
more
than
commercial
staples,
but
it
applies
to
both.
D
F
C
C
C
The
idea
is
to
not
allow
the
recreational
vehicles
to
be
the
primary
thing
you
see
in
the
driveway
or
the
front
yard.
There's
some
levels,
greening
that
is
provided
by
the
vehicle
being
required
to
be
on
the
side
of
the
house,
and
if
it's
behind
the
house,
then
it
is
completely
screened
from
the
street.
If
there's
a
neighbor
behind
the
house
and
they'd
be
able
to
see
it.
A
C
A
A
H
H
G
You
know
a
lot
of
that
would
depend
on
we're
the
recreational
vehicles,
because
I
understand
they
have
to
be
back
so
they're.
There
definitely
is
not
hammered
up
exactly
perfectly
cuz,
then
you
also
have
to
put
where
the
parking
would
be
and
things
of
that
nature,
but
the
idea
is
they'd
be
closer
up
towards
the
road
towards
Hitchcock
Parkway,
yes,
yeah.
Of
course,
yeah.
G
H
B
G
And
that's
an
excellent
question
because
that's
something
my
husband
and
I
have
been
talking
quite
a
bit
about,
and
we've
talked
to
some
pretty
experienced
equestrians
in
the
area
and
asked
their
opinions
and
thoughts
and
for
the
most
part
they
feel
that
it
would
be
fine
concerns
on
our
part
would
be
if
somebody
is
on
Hitchcock
cart.
You
know,
and
and
sirens
are
going
by
or
people
are
hitting
the
horn
and
if
it's
a
more
excitable
horse
more
of
a
hot
blood
that
that
is
something
we've
thought
about.
G
You
know,
we've
talked
to
a
builder
and
asked
what
our
options
would
be
and
he
recommended
he
said
you
can
put
in.
Of
course,
this
would
be
another
permit,
put
up
fencing
in
there
and
have
IV
growing
on
it,
which
we've
really
dead
in
the
sound.
His
recommendation
was
nothing
dead
and
sound
better
than
visit
vegetation.
So
having
kind
of
like
a
living
green
wall
at
the
edge
of
the
properties.
G
Say
maximum?
Yes,
some
riders
prefer
their
horses
not
to
be
put
out
into
paddocks,
be
turned
out
for
various
reasons,
especially
if
they're
show
horses.
They
don't
want
any
risk
of
injury
to
the
horse
or
some
writers.
Don't
some
can
have
a
bleaching
effect
on
their
coat.
So
it
really
depend
on
that,
but
yeah
I
think
eight
horses
would
be
maximum
on
a
lot.
There's.
G
G
Well,
could
I
would
think
that
that
would
be
strictly
on
a
perhaps
you
know,
there's
a
show
in
the
woods,
and
somebody
wants
to
keep
their
horse
for
two
nights
and
they're.
Just
in
a
stall,
you
know
two
nights
and
then
they're
leaving,
but
on
a
ongoing
basis.
Eight
would
be
the
absolute
ongoing
basis.
Maximum.
A
I
have
to
refer
to
judge.
You
asked
an
excellent
question
because
I
when
I
looked
at
the
bacilli
and
I
discussed
this
with
my
wife,
we
talked
about
the
same
thing:
that
ress
does
not
define
a
limit
for
courses
but
elsewhere
in
the
ordinances
describing
other
properties.
They
do
define
the
number
of
courses
per
acre.
If
you
have
additional
motion
with
have
additional
acreage,
looking
at
12
horses
on
that
lot,
I
would
you
be
opposed
if
we
are
established
a
limit
to
the
horses,
because.
G
G
That's
that
was
kind
of
our
thought
too.
We
we
put
8
to
12
cuz.
We
thought
well
we're
gonna
put
in
a
range
on
that.
But,
as
I
said,
I
was
surprised
when
we
read
the
zoning
and
I
was
like
wow
I'm.
Usually
it's
an
acre
horse,
or
at
least
an
acre
for
I've,
actually
heard
the
terminology
1
and
1/2
horses
per
acre,
but
it
depends
I've
had
other
people
say
no,
two
horses
per
acre
depending
on
how
you
do
your
pet.
G
G
G
F
A
F
F
G
F
G
There's
a
few
different
ways:
you
can
do
those
you
can
configure
them,
there's
different
ways
of
doing
it
that
allows
the
animal
more
walking
instead
of
it
being
a
rectangular
shape.
A
new
design
has
been
to
make
them
narrower
and
almost
like
corridors
20
to
30
feet
wide
and
then
long
and
then
turning
and
they've
shown
that
that
actually
helps
the
horse
to
get
a
lot
more
movement
in,
and
it
also
prevents
the
grass
from
getting
quite
as
tore
up
as
it
does
in
a
square
or
rectangle
shaped
paddock
I.
F
F
G
No,
that's
that's
a
very
valid
point
I.
You
know
we
were
approaching
this
and
we
loved
Hitchcock
woods
and
we
will
do
anything
necessary
to
make
sure
if
this
goes
forward
to
make
sure
that
there's
no
damage
to
that.
Because
that's
you
know
a
priceless
community
treasure
and
so
I
can
understand
the
concern
on
that
and,
if
need
be,
we'd
get
an
engineering
workup
on
that
and
see
if
that
would
be
necessary.
We
have
not
at
this
point
done
that,
but
if
need
be,
you
know
we
could
do
that.
If
there's
a
concern.
I
G
What
we're
kind
of
visualizing
is
that
it
would
basically
be
half
and
half
four
stalls
would
be
self
care
which
there's
that
I'm
aware
of
there's
very
extraordinarily
limited
self
care.
Stables
on
the
woods
steeple
in
the
woods,
of
course,
is
a
full
full
board,
stable
and
there's
many
riders
who
are
very
particular
about
how
their
horse
is
cared
for,
and
they
prefer
to
do
it
themselves.
So
we
were
looking
to
have
half
with
the
self
care
that
would
be
completely
transient.
I
I
I
Mm-Hmm
I
would
have
zero
problem
with
that,
it's
it's
the
that's
the
other
potential
aspect
of
it,
because
most
your
facilities
around
here
that
I'm,
aware
of
and
I
own
a
couple
of
horses,
so
I
have
a
little
little
familiarity
with
some
of
the
other
facilities
or
just
long-term
boarding,
sort
of
going
to
have
open
stalls
and
their
special
events,
certainly
they'll,
squeeze
in,
but
but
generally
they're
there
to
lease
out
long
term
for
permanent
boarding
or
semi-permanent
boarding.
This
is
a
bit
of
a
new
concept
that
I
think
you're.
G
G
Actually,
my
degree
is
in
counseling,
but
I
went
to
University
of
Kentucky
and
worked
several
years
while
I
was
working
on
my
master's
degree,
I
worked
on
the
horse,
farms
out
there
and
obviously
I
was
raised
with
riding
and
horses,
but
I
worked
as
a
show
groom
going
through
graduate
school,
so
I
had
quite
a
bit
of
hands-on
experience.
Doing
that
and
then
continued
driving
after
after
graduate
school
and.
G
I
G
I
G
G
I
Just
just
don't
want
to
poison
the
well,
because
that
those
particular
five
Lots
have
struggled
mightily,
trying
to
get
up
and
going
they've
been
there
quite
a
long
time
they
have
and
I
suspect
traffic,
as
some
people
have
already
alluded
to
that.
There's
a
piece
of
that
puzzle.
You
can't
beat
the
juxtaposition
to
the
woods,
but.
G
And
that's
what
first
drew
our
attention
to?
It
was
simply
access
to
the
woods
and
that
there's
very
limited
boarding
potential
on
the
woods,
except
for
stable
on
the
woods
and
the
one
I
believe
in
Fox
Chase,
and
we
are
kind
of
listening
to
what
people
were
saying
of
a
bit
of
frustration,
that
it
can
be
a
little
bit
difficult
and
a
lot
of
staging
goes
on
yet
stable
of
the
woods
and
a
few
other
locations
and
that
oh
gee.
Wouldn't
it
be
nice
if
there
was
more
choices.
G
I
H
Do
you
plan
on
implementing
sort
of
a
set
of
rules
for
the
boarders
that
come
in,
for
example,
coming
from
the
horse
industry
myself,
we
saw
people
that
would
dry
their
winter
blankets
on
the
fences
they
would
throw
raps
over
the
fences
and
hay
bales
strewn
about,
etc.
Not
everybody's
standards
are
the
same
as
far
as
keeping
things
tidy.
So
are
you
going
to
put
something
in
place
that
when
someone
comes,
if
you
can't,
you
know,
keep
your
feet
out
by
your
paddock
and
things
will
have
to
be.
You
know
no
blankets
on
the
fences.
H
G
G
We
want
it
to
be
the
type
of
facility
if
this
goes
forward,
that
many
many
many
people
would
want
to
board
at.
So
we
can
be
a
little
more
selective
and
maintain
a
standard
that
you
know
I'm.
Sorry,
this
is
the
standard.
If
you
can't
comply
with
that,
then
blessings
you
know,
like
you
know
the
more
you
have
pre
planned,
pre
worked
out
and
pre
communicated
before
somebody
brings
an
animal
there,
the
better
so
absolutely
a
hundred
percent.
Almost.
H
G
G
Ideally,
you
know
it'd
be
better
if
this
was
a
much
larger
space,
because
it
would
give
a
lot
more
flexibility
on
that
and
I
can't
say:
we've
worked
out
every
last
detail
on
this,
but
the
idea
of
the
RV
was
also
that
if
somebody
has
an
extended
trailer,
let's
say
a
four
horse
trailer
or
something
they
would
have
a
very
solid
pad
to
park
it
on
and
they
wouldn't
be.
You
know
you
can
withstand
the
weight
mm-hmm.
Thank
you.
E
G
D
A
A
C
C
It
reason
for
the
request
is
to
improve
financial
return.
You
know
residential
properties
such
as
this
can
be
developed
for
a
a
surprising
range
of
non
residential
uses,
such
as
schools,
golf
courses,
things
of
that
nature.
These
are
all
uses
that
are
permitted
as
special
exceptions
if
granted
by
this
board
each
one
of
them
has
a
financial
transaction
aspect
to
them.
C
So
you
could
not
grant
a
special
exception
saying
that
you
can
do
something
that
will
make
it
more
profitable,
but
the
fact
that
it
is
a
commercial
undertaking
is
you
know
that
that
would
not
prohibit
you.
The
idea
that
there
would
be
financial
gain.
You
know
a
profit
that
would
not
prohibit
the
the
board
from
granting
a
special
exception.
E
D
C
F
I
C
A
D
B
Suppose
that
we
approve
application,
number
18,
9
205
for
the
following
conditions,
that
the
subject
property
must
comply
with
the
requirements
of
section
3,
point
3
point
2,
1,
D
and
D
of
the
zoning
ordinance
and
the
final
order
is
to
run
with
the
land
and
be
recorded
in
the
Aiken
County.
Our
MC
office.
A
I
F
A
G
Well,
first
I'd,
you
know,
obviously
need
to
talk
with
my
husband
about
it
and
then
we
would,
you
know,
rework
the
configuration
and
see
if
that
you
know
I.
Forgive
me
I
can't
quite
give
you
exactly
a
yes/no
answer.
You
know,
obviously
you
know
we
would,
you
know,
think
about
it
and
work
out
the
numbers
and
if
it,
if
it
worked
great
and
I.
G
I
I
D
I
A
I
That's
what
most
people
do
I
mean
I,
know,
I
know
it's
a
nice
convenience,
because
you
know
a
lot
of
these
horse.
Trailers
have
sleeper
capacity
and
but
there's
a
difference
between
being
a
nice
convenience
and
the
lycra
better.
We're
promoting
that
ability
to
do
so.
I
think
you,
you
by
nature,
would
almost
attract
some
of
that
activity
that
transient
activity
that
way
so
limiting
it
to
a
night
or
a
weekend
to
night
48
hours,
something
like
that.
I'd
be
much
more
comfortable
with
probably
more
comfortable,
eliminating
it,
but
certainly
time
restrictions.
So.
D
H
Of
the
considerations
I
think
in
including
this
amenity
a
lot
of
times
it's
more
to
care
for
the
horses.
Often
people
want
to
stay
on
the
premise
because
they
want
to
do
night
check
my
interpretation
of
what
the
services
that
are
being
offered.
It's
more
of
people
have
their
trailers
to
bring
their
horses.
They
may
be
staying
in
a
hotel.
That's
my
I'm
just
saying
this
is
my
interpretation
coming
from
that
world
I?
Don't
think
it's
necessarily
somebody
that's
going
RVing
that
has
a
horse.
H
And
it
sounds
to
me,
like
the
type
of
client
is
going
to
be
sensitive.
To
that,
and
probably
very
cognizant
of
the
community
would
be
in
my
interpretation.
I
would
hate
to
limit
that
for
the
business,
because
I
think
the
people
that
are
coming
for
hunt
week
or
the
shows
aren't
necessarily
looking
at
the
overnight.
You
know
the
same
way:
it's
more
of
a
convenience,
in
addition
to
the
service
that
they're
offering
does.
I
H
Think
it
really
depends
on
the
discipline
and
the
reason
that
they're
in
town
and
people
that
come
in
the
woods
to
ride
in
the
woods
even
for
a
weekend,
it's
it's
the
type
of
person
to
stay
in
that
caliber
of
place.
That
I
feel
is
potentially
being
proposed.
It's
going
to
have
a
broad
spectrum,
but
it's
also
going
to
be
a
certain
type.
That's
there
for
the
care
of
their
horse,
a
high
quality
experience
and
not
necessarily
something
that's
going
to
detract
from
the
community.
H
I
think
the
concerns
are
valid
because
there's
always
that
one
person,
but
it
sounds
to
me
the
the
RV-
is
again
not
someone
coming
to
camp,
it's
coming
to
facilitate
supplies
and
care
for
the
horse
and
not
necessarily
live
in
that
trailer
for
two
weeks.
It's
just
another
sort
of
angle
to
look
at
it
and
I.
Think
that
that's
worth
considering
for
four
different
clients,
yeah.
I
For
me,
it's
just
a
different
set
of
people
in
their
neighborhood
I
said
no
problem,
checking
on
horses
and
all
that
kind
of
stuff.
It's
the
misty
overnighting
on
the
premises.
Next
to
residential
lights.
That
bothers
me,
I
don't
have
a
problem
either
way
putting
the
amendment
in
or
not
I'm
just
telling
you
where,
where,
where
I'm
going?
If
there's
there's
movement
to
do.
J

Stinson
560
Newbury
Street
southwest
I
just
wanted
for
the
sake
of
the
point
you're
raising
and
that
you
face.
One
reason
the
developer
is
not
here
tonight
is
that
he
is
totally
supportive
of
this.
I
am
his
realtor
and
we've
had
a
lot
of
discussions
about
this.
He
thinks
all
aspects
of
her
proposal
he's
seen
that
he's
ready
he's
aware
of
it.
A
I
think
what
we
are
trying
not
to
create
is
a
another
campsite
for
recreational
vehicles
and
because
again
this
is
this
will
be
a
residential
area
and
having
been
in
that
world
wants
before
you
can
plant
a
lot
of
night
activities
with
a
campsite
that
could
be
very
noisy
and
disruptive
to
the
rest
of
their
community.
So
I
would
think
that
to
careful
ones,
courses
that
we
could
limit
the
Oh
a
night
stay
two
to
three
days
or
whatever,
to
allow
the
owner
to
feel
comfortable
with
the
care
and
the
safety
of
their
animals.
But.
E
E
If
I'm
sorry,
but
if
someone
complains
registers
a
complaint
with
zoning,
then
the
item
is
going
to
have
to
be.
The
issue
is
going
to
have
to
be
addressed
as
the
stated
and
the
zoning
ordinance.
So
if
there
is
a
problem
with
boarding
of
partying,
whatever
the
concerns
are-
and
there
is
a
formal
complaint
lodged,
then
it
can
be
addressed.
F
B
Me,
but
also
a
I'm,
not
a
member
of
the
horse
community,
so
I
don't
know
this,
but
I
would
think
if
anybody
had
an
investment
in
horses
like
I'm,
assuming
horses
and
facilities.
Now
that
pen
they're
not
going
to
be
partying
and
and
causing
disturbances
in
the
net,
they
want
their
horses
settle
down,
so
they'll
be
ready
for
in
the
morning
show
or
a
ride
or
whatever
like
say,
I'm,
not
a
horse
person.
So.
D
A
A
H
Other
factor
that
may
be
in
consideration
is,
if
somebody,
for
example,
was
boarding
at
the
facility
but
was
showing
at
high
fields
across
town,
they
may
be
shipping
in
and
out
to
go
to
the
show
to
then
Park
at
night
to
stay
there,
so
you're
almost
resetting
their
arrival
time.
If
you
start
saying
you
know,
okay,
starting
today,
you
know
there
is
they're
going
to
feel
like
the
RV
component
is
really
just
to
allow
for
the
horse.
Trailers
that
have
living
quarters.
H
Not
all
of
them,
are
going
to
they're
sort
of
a
means
to
if
you're
gonna
ride
in
the
woods
or
go
to
the
show
across
town,
as
opposed
to
something
permanent
for
two
weeks
that
someone's
living
in
that
that
would
that
would
be
in
my
experience,
probably
exceptional
if
they
were
here
for
a
series
that
may
be
the
case,
but
they're
still
going
to
be
perhaps
transporting
their
horse.
You
know
that
would
be
the
primary
function
of
that
RV
being
on
the
property
just
another
perspective,
to
look
at
it.
