e e e Ms. Wooten said the proposal is not clear about protection for people with low incomes who need conditional use permits in residential areas. She said the City should guarantee access to the appeal process for them. Ms. Brody said Ms. Wooten's concern is valid, but the Planning staff thought it was outweighed by the necessity to recover the cost of appeals. Ms. Wooten suggested the recommended change be approved with the addition of a provision for waiving the appeal fee for conditional use permits in residen- tial areas for people who receive a Certificate of Indigency. Answering questions from Mr. Hansen and Mr. Holmer, Ms. Brody said usually a decision to file an appeal must be made by the executive board of a neighbor- hood association. Time usually does not permit approval by the full membership. No public notice is required for executive board meetings. Res. No. 3981--A resolution concerning land use application fees; repealing Resolution No. 3452; and providing an effective date. Mr. Hansen moved, seconded by Mr. Holmer, to adopt the resolution subject to the following changes to Section 2: 1. The annexation fee will be waived for the area served by the River Road/Santa Clara sanitary sewer system only (for other areas, the annexation/zone change fee will be $520 for requests involving less than five acres and $770 for requests involving five or more acres), and 2. The fee for conditional use permits for owner-occupied day-care and group-care facilities in residential zoning districts will be 50 percent of the regular fee. Ms. Wooten said most group homes are not owner-occupied. She suggested "operator-occupiedll be substituted for lIowner-occupiedll and Mayor Obie accepted the change as an editorial one.
