All proposed revisions to be incorporated into the November 2010 Public Hearing Draft UDO <br />are included in Attachment 2 and have been recommended for incorporation by the Planning <br />Board. Planning staff concurs with the Planning Board's recommendation. <br />Additional Staff Recommended Revisions <br />Subsequent to the March 2, 2011 Planning Board meeting, further review of the UDO by staff <br />has resulted in additional staff-recommended revisions. The County Attorney has <br />recommended that three additions be made to the draft UDO. These additions are included in <br />Attachment 3. The attorney-recommended additions pertain to rules related to the <br />re uirements for volunteer service on the Planning Board and Board of Adjustment and the <br />q <br />addition of a definition for "Interested Person". <br />Furthermore, Planning staff found that the MHP-CZ chart in Article 3 of the draft UDO contains <br />an incorrect condition and has recommended the condition be deleted. This modification is also <br />included in Attachment 3. <br />Additional Back round Information <br />The UDC process began in August 2009.

The BOCC allocated $32,604 in the 2009-2010 budget, Departmental <br />Contract Services Account, to complete this BOCC priority. The costs of consulting services, as <br />outlined in the executed contract, are not to exceed $30,000. The additional $2,500 was <br />budgeted for advertising, copying and printing expenses. Monies were not carried forward from <br />the previous budget, so staff has worked with Financial Services to accommodate this multi- <br />year BOCC priority. Advertising, copying and printing expenses have totaled approximately <br />$15,400 and have been paid using general Planning Department budgeted funds for these <br />types of activities. Additionally, Planning staff time on the project has been significant. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends the Board: <br />1.
