Tonight's Consideration:
0 A Zoning Ordinance Amendment ONLY
* Would allow a "gas well pad site" in any zoning district IF a SPECIFIC USE
PERMIT (SLIP) is approved
• What is a SLIP?
• A type of discretionary zoning change where additional specific conditions can be
placed on a specific use and parcel
12/18/2008
Prolposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment:
• Expands districts in which gas well pad sites mav be located, but only with an
approved SLIP.
• But it's not guaranteed.
• Why?
• SLIP Process Itself:
• Two public hearings (at least)
• Adjacent property owner notification
• Conditions imposed on SLIP can be rigorous
0
►, s KI
What this Proposed Amendment Does:,
• It expands the districts in which the applicant can ASK for an SLIP.
• The SLIP, if granted, is still subject to all of the Technical Standards Ordinance
requirements PLUS conditions imposed for the SLIP itself.

The SLIP is not all that would be r _uired
® Two Pronged Approach:
® SLIP involves a hearing before both P&Z and Town Council
® Technical Standards Ordinance
1 . Establishes a process for applying for "gas well pad site permit"
Must first have an approved SLIP
2. Establishes a process for applying for "gas well permit"
12/18/2008
The Permit Process:
A Site Plan will be required for each Gas Well Pad Site.
This Site Plan will become an exhibit for the permits issued subsequently.
