Michael Harvey: Yes sir. <br /> Chair Jacobs: Okay. <br /> Commissioner Gordon: I just thought of something. We also ought to enter into the record, all <br /> of the things that Mr. Harvey asked us to enter into the record, plus all of the things that people <br /> have submitted to us. Because he asked us at the beginning to do that, and we never did. So, I <br /> suppose I should put that into my motion, or somebody should. <br /> Michael Harvey: I think it might be appropriate for you at this juncture to reiterate not only <br /> entering everything that I asked to be entered in to the record; including the abstract, which <br /> contains the application, attachment 1, the vicinity map, staff comments, neighborhood <br /> information meeting notices; as well as the copies of the unified development ordinance, the <br /> comprehensive plan, the Joint Planning Land Use Plan, and the Orange County soil survey; as <br /> well as the attachments that I provided you this evening from emails. But, I would also urge the <br /> motion include that all evidence submitted from both the applicant and adjacent property owners <br /> be entered into the evidence; so all documentation submitted to the clerk be so entered. <br /> Chair Jacobs: That was part of your motion, wasn't it? <br /> Commissioner Gordon: Actually, I said it in abbreviated form. I said all of the things that he <br /> submitted and all the things that were submitted to us, but that's a better way of saying it. <br /> Chair Jacobs: Seconder agrees. Is there a discussion of this motion? <br /> Commissioner porosin: Well I'd like to—So there is going to be another, or a continuation of <br /> this public hearing. So, I would like to request that the applicant and Mr. Rooks make sure all of <br /> the witnesses who testified today are here. So, I would like to ask some follow up questions to <br /> some of the folks and so, just for some clarification based on some of the testimony. I know we <br /> went a long time and people left. But, if those folks that you brought, Mr. Rooks, and all the <br /> folks that you brought would be back again, even if they don't plan on presenting new testimony, <br /> so we can ask questions that we didn't get to tonight. <br /> Chair Jacobs: And to be clear, it will not be in this room. It will be in the Whitted Building, <br /> downtown, in our new meeting room, which will be not as cold hopefully, and more <br /> commodious. Any other questions or comments before we vote? <br /> Commissioner McKee: It may have already been asked, but I would also be interested in — it's <br /> been mentioned on the storm water— I would be interested in knowing, particularly in looking at <br /> this site plan with the elevations, where this water is going, because it's obvious that not all of it <br /> is going to the development. There is a fairly, evidently a fairly steep draw that goes in one <br /> direction. I'd be interested in knowing where this water is going and in what percentages the <br /> water is running off, and in what direction. <br /> Commissioner Pelissier: Yeah, that was part of my question. <br /> Chair Jacobs: Okay we have a motion that's been seconded to continue this item. <br /> James Bryan: Mr. Chair, may I interject just a reminder about ex-parte evidence, that this, as <br /> a quasi-judicial hearing, and this is good information for the many witnesses, that the only <br /> evidence that this Board can hear is the evidence presented during the actual hearing. So, if <br />
