Subsequent to that approval, the property was sold to the current applicants, Jason and Whitnee Patten, who assumed the responsibility to complete the USR. Mr. Hall cited three (3) factors supporting the staff's determination that the condition is no longer necessary: 1) the well is permitted for residential use, which is the applicant's intended use for the site; 2) the existing well is not physically located on the subject site and the applicants do not have the legal ability to re -permit the well; and 3) the USR does not provide for on -site employees, so no water source is needed for the storage yard and bottled water and portable toilets are satisfactory. Lastly, he confirmed, if this request is approved, the plat has been submitted and is ready for recording. Jason Patten, applicant, agreed with staff's explanation and confirmed he has no intent to use the site for a commercial business. No public testimony was offered concerning this matter. In response to Commissioner James, Mr. Barker clarified the request does not amend the USR Resolution, rather, this action will make the determination that the condition is unnecessary, and its satisfaction is not required. Commissioner Freeman moved to determine that COA #1.A of USR18-0071 is unnecessary, and therefore, it is no longer a requirement for the applicants to satisfy. Commissioner Saine seconded the motion, and it carried unanimously. RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES: The resolutions were presented and signed as listed on the Consent Agenda. No Ordinances were approved.
