Geoffrey Gledhill informed the audience and Board members that the Special Use Permit process is not generally a public process. The rule is that a public hearing is held for the purpose of hearing evidence as to whether or nit the cemditia~s that are required by the Ordinance are met. As a general rule, the Board has apen meetings where people are allowed to speak whenever they want. Excluding people from speaking on special Use Permits is new and required by law once the public hearing has been closed, because it is orily the evidence presented at the public gearing that may be considered. Cea[s[ussioner Walker noted that people need to be educated as to the process and it should be put in the advertisement. C1~air Willhoit suggested that the advertisement be more explicit and that the agenda abstract indicate whether or not a public gearing i.s appropriate or not.
