Heritage Acres trustees urge flexibility for long‑standing uses on R‑5 parcels

Two trustees for Heritage Acres addressed the commission during public comment to request flexibility in the draft R‑5 recreational‑vehicle rules. Robert Charbonneau (S4) suggested a limit of 10 trailers for R‑5 zoning and recommended removing a proposed 30‑day accumulative time limit that he said would be difficult to manage. Tracy Sanford (S6) described property improvements — cleared land, water and electric hookups, gravel roads, a fire‑department‑approved pit, and a bath house — and said the parcel had been used respectfully for nearly 50 years; both urged protection of property rights for future generations.
