PLANNING COMMISSION
DIVISION Ill STAFF REPORT

HEARING DATE: May 14,2012

CASE NUMBER: 2012-0003

APPLICANT: Pothole Riviera Properties, LLC - Jerry Wible

LOCATION: The subject property is located at 3585 State Highway
Y, Forsyth, MO; Swan Township; Section 8, Township
23, Range 20.

REQUEST: The applicant, Jerry Wible is requesting approval of a
Special Use Permit to utilize an existing,
grandfathered, single-family residence for nightly
-------------------------------~ro.

BACKGROUND and SITE HISTORY:
According to the Assessor's information, the home was constructed in 1943. The
property in question is known as Lot 5, Block 1 of the Pot Hole Riviera Addition.

The current application was approved for Concept on April16, 2012.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
The subject property (approximately 80' x 105' - 8,400 sq. ft) contains an approximately
807 square foot single-family residence (per the Assessor's information) located at 3585
State Highway Y, Forsyth, MO, in the Pot Hole Riviera Addition.

REVIEW:
The Taney County Development Guidance Code defines nightly rental as "A residential
building, structure, or part thereof that may be rented for any period of time less than
thirty (30) days." Currently, the applicant would have the ability to rent the residence for
a period of thirty (30) days or greater.
The exterior appearance of the single-family home will remain the same. During the site
visit the applicant indicated that the first floor of the home is unfinished and will be
utilized as storage with the second floor serving as living quarters. However, during the
Concept Hearing, the applicant indicated that a room will be remodeled both in the first
and second floor of the home allowing for no more than 8 adult guests.

Division III Staff Report- Pothole Riviera Properties, LLC-Jerry Wible -Nightly Rental- 2012-0008 Page 1
 The property in question is currently buffered with natural vegetation along the northern,
southern and western property boundaries. The adjoining, residential property owner
immediately to the north has expressed opposition to any conditions being placed on
this Special-Use Permit which would require privacy fencing, primarily due to concerns
of loss of view.

The property is currently served by a community well and the Taney County Regional
Sewer District. The residence is in compliance with the setback requirements. The
existing parking area will exceed the requirements of the Taney County Development
Guidance Code (1.5 spaces per two-bedroom dwelling unit with %space added for
each additional bedroom) and the existing, large Y-shaped driveway will allow for the
on-site turnaround of an automobile with a boat or camper.
The project received a total score of 2 on the Policy Checklist, out of a maximum
possible score of 41 . The relative policies receiving a negative score consist of
emergency water supply, solid waste disposal service, use compatibility and utilities.

SUMMARY:

If the Taney County Planning Commission approves this request, the following
requirements shall apply, unless revised by the Planning Commission:
1. Compliance with the provisions of the Taney County Development Guidance
Code.

2. No outside storage of equipment or solid waste materials.
3. This decision is subject to all existing easements.
4. A 25' wide natural vegetative buffer shall be preserved along the northern
property boundary, between the property in question and the adjacent single
family residence.
5. This Decision of Record shall be filed with the Taney County Recorder's Office
within 120 days or the approval shall expire (Chapter II Item 6).

Memo
To: Taney County Planning Commission Members

From: Bob Atchley
Date: May 7, 2012
Re: Proposed Amendments to the Draft Subdivision Regulations

Following the April 23rd Planning Commission Work Session, the staff met with Randy Haes,
at the request of the Planning Commission, in order to ensure that the provisions of the Draft
Subdivision Regulations comply with the existing provisions of the Taney County Road
Standards. Upon reviewing both the Draft Subdivision Regulations and the Road Standards
a number of inconsistencies were noted. The staff has proposed a series of amendments to
the Draft Subdivision Regulations which will address these inconsistencies and ensure
compliance with the adopted Road Standards.

I have enclosed a copy of the proposed amendments to the Draft Subdivision Regulations to
be discussed by the Planning Commission at the Public Hearing on June 11, 2012. Please
note that any proposed additions are shown as being highlighted and any proposed deletions
are shown with a strikethrough. You are being provided a copy of only those pages of the
draft subdivision regulations which contain proposed amendments. Some page numbers
may not match the page numbers for the sections that you received in the original Draft
Subdivision Regulations because of the additions.

Please feel free to contact me at (417) 546-7225 with question or concerns.
