Michael Harvey said this is one of the reasons that the timeline was not expanded and <br /> that he did not agree that conditional zoning was more problematic given the lack of requiring <br /> expert testimony as with all quasi judicial cases. <br /> Commissioner Gordon said the conditional re-zoning requires some negotiating between <br /> the applicant and the County, and a lot of it is up to the Commissioners to approve. She said <br /> some of the standards for uses permitted under the conditional zoning process are similar to <br /> those for uses permitted under the Class B special use permit process. She said it is her <br /> opinion that the range of negotiation and need for public knowledge is the same. <br /> Michael Harvey said conditional use involves a special use permit and will have to meet <br /> the 30 day meeting requirement. <br /> Commissioner Gordon said it is still her opinion that you need every bit as much time on <br /> a conditional re-zoning as you do on a conditional use. She said a special use permit does put <br /> the additional burden of expert testimony. <br /> Commissioner Gordon said she likes Commissioner porosin's idea of having three <br /> months of submitted applications available, with clarification that these have not gone through <br /> the process yet. She said one of the attached emails suggested the planning staff play a more <br /> prominent role in the meetings, and staff needs to think about this and about what their role <br /> should be. <br /> She said she is extremely pleased to see that this idea about the neighborhood <br /> information meetings and timing has been raised. She said it is important to allow transparency <br /> and time to react. <br /> Commissioner Pelissier said she appreciates Commissioner porosin's suggestion. She <br /> thinks there is a front end of the process, but there also needs to be consideration of having <br /> better communication when there are a lot of concerns. She said it is hard to predict public <br /> reaction. <br /> Michael Harvey said he feels that if staff can implement Commissioner porosin's <br /> suggestion of using the webpage and if staff takes greater steps to explain the process and <br /> educate residents, this will help things. <br /> Chair Jacobs referred to Commissioner Price's question about the scheduling of <br /> meetings at night. He said this may not work for everyone, but it is expected by most people, <br /> and the developer should have a profit motive to be there. <br /> Michael Harvey said staff gets requests and complaints both ways with respect to <br /> holding meetings during the day and the evening, and there is no one way to make everybody <br /> happy <br /> Chair Jacobs said it seems to be the default to hold public meetings at night <br /> Chair Jacobs said it would be easy to take the report that was received in their planning <br /> packets and place it on the web as Commissioner porosin suggested. <br /> Michael Harvey said this will be accommodated fairly easily. <br /> Chair Jacobs said one of the reasons for talking about having public information <br /> meetings for some of the applications was because government and quasi-governmental <br /> facilities had no notice requirements. <br /> Commissioner Price said she supports what Commissioner porosin said about the <br /> meeting. <br /> Commissioner Gordon said she wants to underscore Commissioner Pelissier's point <br /> about situations where there are a lot of concerns, and more time is needed. She said the goal <br /> is to identify categories where a meeting is needed and then to allow sufficient time. She thinks <br /> conditional rezoning should be included in this. <br /> She said something else that could be done when there is an issue that generates a lot <br /> of concern is to adjourn the public hearing to a date certain. She said this was done for the <br /> Unified Development Ordinance (UDO). She asked for an identification of situations where the <br /> public hearing could not be extended. <br />
