Leqal Advertisement for Quarterly Public Hearinq — May 29, 2012 <br /> The Board considered the legal advertisement for items to be presented at the joint <br /> Board of county Commissioners/Planning Board Quarterly Public Hearing scheduled for May <br /> 29, 2012. <br /> Commissioner Gordon made reference to page 5 of the legal ad, #5, and said that it is <br /> not a good idea to have amendments to both the Comprehensive Plan and the Zoning <br /> Ordinance at the same hearing. The Comprehensive Plan is a planning document and <br /> amendments should be considered separately from zoning changes. She said that she would <br /> vote against this to make her point clear. <br /> Commissioner Jacobs said that he agreed with Commissioner Gordon's point but will <br /> vote for it. <br /> Commissioner Yuhasz said that in some instances they may want to hold a hearing <br /> separately, but this needs to move forward. <br />
