Chair Tornatore noted that it was his understanding that the Petition was approved by the ZBA because it was dealing with residential/recreational vehicles. Also, Conditional Uses historically apply to the property owner and does not run with the property. The Development Committee reviews the ZBA's issues and if there is a substantial deviation from what was presented and voted on at the ZBA meeting, we refer the Petition back to the ZBA so the Petitioner can make their case again.
