The effective period may be extended for an additional year subject to approval of an extension (form avail able from the Planning Division). Additional extensions may not be granted if the regulations under which this decision was granted have changed since the original approval. WARNING: A decision approving the proposed use is for land use purposes only. Due to septic, well, and drain field replacement areas, this parcel may not be able to support the proposal.

CONDITIONS: The following conditions must be met before a building permit can be obtained or the approved use established: 1. The applicant shall obtain approval for any permits required by the Marion County Building Inspection Division. 2. The development shall significantly conform to the site plan submitted with the proposal. Minor variations are permitted upon review and approval by the Planning Director. 3. Failure to continuously comply with the conditions of approval may result in this approval being revoked. Any revocation could be appealed to a County hearings officer for a public hearing. OTHER PERMITS, FEES AND RESTRICTIONS: This approval does not remove or affect covenants or restrictions imposed on the subject property by deed or other instrument. The proposed use may require permits and/or fees from other local, State or Federal agencies. This decision does not take the place of, or relieve the responsibility for, obtaining other permits or satisfying any restrictions or conditions thereon. APPEAL PROCEDURE: The Marion County Zone Code provides that certain applications be considered first by the County Zoning Administrator. If there is any doubt that the application conforms with adopted land use policies and regula- tions the Zoning Administrator must condition or deny the application. Anyone who disagrees with the decision may request that the application be considered by a County hearings officer after a public hearing. The applicant may also request reconsideration (one time only and a fee of $250) on the basis of new information subject to signing an extension of the 120 day time limit for review of zoning applications.
