Beverly Hartin, said lives down the road from winery. Concerned about property values because of noise disturbance. We were here first. Matt Domingo, said the applicant has to play by the rules. Katie Patterson, representing the Farm Bureau, said the Farm Bureau is in opposition to this project. She said she would acknowledge Vern is member of Farm Bureau and is a good member and is actually producing wine. The Farm Bureau wants to support winery but concerned about land use conflict with events in the agricultural zone and if the events are accessory to the winery. Dave Isola, believes there is a land use conflict. Lisa Isola, said has problem with Mitigated Negative Declaration and Staff Report because of the term scattered residences. She said that is incorrect and does not accurately describe the neighborhood as there are 27 houses within a quarter mile radius. 8 of these residences share a common property line with the Vierra's property. There are a lot of residences in the area and it is clustered. Mark Talley, is concerned about the peacefulness of the neighborhood because of the winery's loud music and the expansion would mean more noise and more trash. He does not think the winery should be able to expand. Harold Talley, is not opposed the winery itself but opposed to activities center of the winery. He wants to enjoy the peace and quiet and tranquility of a quiet neighborhood. Fred Donald, said neighbors are tired of event centers disguised as wineries. This is more of an entertainment center than a winery. REBUTTAL Mike Hakeem seeking to comply with the county codes by applying for subject application. Most of the arguments from the opposition are asking to change the existing winery ordinance. The Development Title has a noise ordinance that the project is subject to. Applicant can apply and has applied for a special event permit for an event in excess of 25 people. Jim Brennan, fro J.C. Brennan and Associates, conducted a noise study. He does not know how much noise was created at past events. He was asked how to comply with noise ordinance by the property owner. Asked owner to stage a concert with similar music to concerts conducted at the site. The gist was if he had music at wine garden, can he comply with the noise ordinance at neighbors property line. Set up control meter at edge of wine garden and meters set up at property lines. The result was if music was played at 75 decibels at the wine garden, could comply with the noise requirements at the Isola's residence. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED- Commissioner Morn said he hopes the applicant complies with the noise requirements. If the applicant is not in compliance, can potentially revoke the land use permit. Commissioner Johnson said the biggest challenge is amplified music. He is not in favor of any application with amplified music because this needs to be addressed first in a new ordinance. However, he is in support of allowing an increase in the number of marketing events. Commissioner Lee said have to hold the project to today's ordinance and not an ordinance that has not been crafted yet. He was confused how Public Work's comments related to this project.
