Harvey Bragdon, Assistant Director of Planning, described-
the subject property and advised that LUP 2121-82 was issued with
conditions in 1982, and stated that in 1984 there was sufficient
evidence that the conditions of approval of the Land Use Permit
were not being met , and subsequently Land Use Permit 2121-82 was
scheduled for a revocation hearing; and
Mr Bragdon advised that the conditions imposed on LUP
2121-82 the Zoning Administrator's hearing were appealed to the
Board of Appeals and advised that the Board of Appeals supported
the Zoning Administrator's recommendations , and further advised
that the Zoning Administrator had imposed the condition that there
be a payment of a school fee for all permanent units with children,
and the Board of. Appeals required the school fee for all permanent
units because it felt it would be difficult to determine which units
were occupied by families with children; and
Chairwoman Fanden opened the public hearing; and
Supervisor Fanden commented that she would like to add
a condition which would require that an adequate number of recycling
bins and garbage bins be placed on this property for the project;
and
Don Adams , owner of the Delta Resort , appeared and stated
that LUP 2121-82 was applied for in 1982 and the lot sizes were
built as approved , and also commented that there were approximately
$200,000 worth of utilities , all underground , which included, sewer ,
water, and electrical wiring, and stated that it would be a tremen-
dous economic impact to relocate them to accommodate the expanded
size lots , and commented that he had offered to build an outdoor
trellis-patio area that would lend itself to residents who wanted to
enjoy the outdoors , and stated that he felt an outdoor patio would
mitigate the space requirements , and asked that the condition be
amended; and
Mr . Adams also advised that all of the Fire Department's
requirements had been met , and suggested that with respect to the
school bedroom tax fees, that a $100 fee be imposed per site ,
commenting that if a $700 fee per site were imposed it would force
him out of business, and requested that if his suggestion was not
acceptable , that the issue ,of the bedroom tax fee be referred to
staff to work out a reasonable and specific proposal; and

Supervisor Schroder inquired as to which of the seven con-
ditions had been complied with; and
Mr . Adams advised that condtions 1 , 2, and 3, have been
complied with and stated that condition number 4, the deli/game room
was being held up pending the processing of a Development Plan; .and
Supervisor Torlakson stated that one of the issues he
would like to investigate further was the impact on the School
District in this area; and
Supervisor ' Fanden commented that she felt some type of fee
was necessary for the School District , but did not feel that a fee
of $700 per unit was fair for an R .V. Park; and
Supervisor Powers suggested that the Board have County
Counsel , the School District and the Planning staff recommend
standards for this project and for R .V. Parks in- general; and
Supervisor Torlakson commented that he felt this was an
issue in which the Board needed information from the School
Districts in order to establish the appropriate fee , and also
inquired as to what the 1982 space requirements were and what the
applicant is appealing, and how does it differ from what the staff
is requiring; and
Mr.. Adams advised that in 1982 the individual spaces for
the R . V. Park were constructed as approved, and stated that there
has been no predetermined amount of space that is required or has
been required by the County for either permanent or temporary space,
and requested that the space requirements remain the same as were
originally approved in 1982; and
Howard Holmes , representing the Bethel Island Improvement
District , appeared and presented to the Board a resolution passed
by the Bethel Island Improvement District at its meeting on
November 15, 1984, and stated that he felt there were several con-
ditions of approval for this Land Use Permit that had not been met
at this time , and urged the Board to deny the appeal , and to
instruct staff to proceed to bring this operation in compliance with
the conditions of the orginal Land Use Permit; and
Kenneth Evans , no address submitted , appeared and urged
the Board to approve the request of Delta Associates to delete the
conditions imposed by the Zoning Administrator and the Board of
Appeals on LUP 2121-82 in the Bethel Island area; and
Supervisor Torlakson inquired as to whether a permit is
necessary to -operate the Deli/game room; and
Harvey Bragdon advised that the applicant is required to
have Development Plan approval , and commented that the Development
Plan for this project had not been processed pending the settlement
of the revocation hearing, and also stated that the applicant should
not be operating the Deli/game room until all State and County requ-
lations have been met; and
Supervisor Torlakson commented that it would be
appropriate to continue the public hearing, and asked that staff
check with the School District to resolve the issue of the bedroom
tax fees , and requested that the Planning Department survey which
other R .V. Parks could be subject to bedroom tax fees , and under
what circumstances; and
Mr . Adams appeared in rebuttal and urged the Board to
approve the request of Delta Associates (applicant and owner) to
delete conditions imposed by the Zoning Administrator and the Board
of Appeals on LUP 2121-82 in the Bethel Island area; and
Supervisor Torlakson recommended that this matter be con-
tinued to February 59 1985 at 2: 30 p.m. and that staff be directed
to clarify the issues of the original 1982 permit and report back to
the Board.
