The proposed amendments promote public health, safety, and general <br /> welfare by furthering the goals and objectives of the 2030 Comprehensive <br /> Plan. <br /> The Board of County Commissioners hereby adopts this Statement of Consistency and <br /> findings expressed herein. <br /> Earl McKee, Chair Date <br />
