Commissioner Johnson asked Mr. Allison about the northside of the property. Specifically, doesn't the present ordinance require that Mr. Hunt erect a fence on this side? Allison said the ordinance does address this matter -- if Hunt stores any materials (logs) on this side it is required. Commissioner Stewart mentioned she had a concern about the hours of operation. Chairman Haire asked the county attorney if the Board could legally impose restrictions on the hours of operation. Mr. Pope advised it was his opinion the Board could do this. He mentioned that the opaque fence might reduce the noise. Commissioner Madison said he felt that some matters could be overly restricted. Mr. Madison said that a reasonable commitment from Mr. Hunt stating the business would operate with reasonable business hours would satisfy him. Commissioner Johnson said he had a philosophical problem with government telling someone in private industry what hours they could operate. Agreed with Mr. Madison that if the Hunt family agreed to operate with reasonable hours he would be satisfied. Commissioner Stewart said she wasn't asking unreasonable hours for the business; however, listening to a sawmill operation at 9:30 or 10 p.m. at night was not reasonable. Commissioner Madison asked if 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., would be acceptable. Mr. Ray Hunt responded that sometimes in business one is asked to get a product out on a specific time. He mentioned that normally his business could comply with these hours, but that he didn't want his hours of operation to be too restrictive. Further, he mentioned that his business was trying to eliminate any late night hours. Commissioner Stewart withdrew her request contingent upon the word of Nr. Runt that he would not make a habit of operating his machinery at all hours of the night. Nr. Runt agreed. Coyte Deal (Opposition): Mentioned again that his property was being washed away and that materials owned by Mr. Hunt were on his property. Commissioner Johnson advised that Mr. Hunt was not requesting to rezone this particular property. Therefore, the Board of Commissioners couldn't do anything. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. Chairman Haire declared the meeting to be in public hearing session. RESCUING REQUEST; J. SAN 6 JAN W. TROUTMAN AND C. LYNN i SUSAN H.
