Minor increases in costs for minor subdivision development; <br /> Development Process Schedule and Action <br /> • Public Hearing February 28, 2000: Major comments: <br /> o No flexibility for private roads to protect natural resources or rural character; and <br /> o Cost of private road certification will increase for small subdividers. <br /> The Board of County Commissioners referred the proposed amendments to the Planning Board <br /> to return a recommendation no sooner than May 3, 2000. <br />
