Public Comment by Debra McCready, stated the change was to facilitate the
0 sale of a home. The FRDO had been asked for an interpreta—
tion. McCready stated there would be no traffic or parking
problems.
Smith noted a problem with arbitrarily striking the words
Barber and Beauty Shops.
FRDO recommended simply striking the words, "barber shop,
r FRDO & Board beauty shop" from the existing definition. Mohn explained
Recommendations a conditional use permit is required, and those permits
are revocable. Smith would recommend to the Board of
Adjustment to allow this conditional use.
McCready stated she had approval from the State Board
of Cosmetology allowing one person or operator per 120
sq. ft.: she has 160 sq. ft.
Forrest Daley stated he had no objections. Palmer noted
the parking area would be relayed by appointments.
Corbitt and Smith agreed with the idea for this particular
request, but did not want the ordinance to allow carte
blanche to all homes.

t� grant a conditional use. Smith suggested adding barber
and beauty shops to RA-2, instead. Mohn could see no
problem with this proposal as there were very few RA-2
zoned areas.
