As a result, the <br />proposed amendment will modify sections of the UDO regarding temporary structures related to <br />custodial care in order to be consistent with Session Law 2014 -94. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: Consideration and approval will not create the need for additional funding <br />for the provision of County services. Costs for the required legal advertisement will be paid <br />from FY2014 -15 Departmental funds budgeted for this purpose. Existing Planning staff included <br />in the Departmental staffing budget will accomplish the work required to process this <br />amendment. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends the Board approve the attached <br />Amendment Outline form and direct staff to proceed accordingly. <br />
