Staff Response to "Points for Courtesy <br />Review" <br />2. Excerpt from 3-7-07 Draft PB Minutes <br />3. Handouts from 3-7-07 PB Meeting <br />INFORMATION CONTACT: <br />Craig Benedict, Planning Director, Phone: <br />2592 <br />Gene Bell, Planning Systems Coordinator, <br />245-2589 <br />PURPOSE: To continue the Courtesy Review discussion from the March 7, 2007 Planning <br />Board meeting and provide a response to "Points for Courtesy Review" distributed by the Chair <br />at that meeting. <br />BACKGROUND: On March 7, 2007, Planning Staff presented a short report on Courtesy <br />Review practices currently in effect in the County. To help frame discussion and identify key <br />issues, The Planning Board Chair distributed "Points for Courtesy Review." The time to <br />adjourn was reached before all points were addressed -and staff was asked to bring Courtesy <br />Review back in May. <br />For this meeting; staff has provided a response to the 10 points for Board discussion. In <br />drafting the response, it became obvious that the assistance of the County Attorney's office is <br />needed for some questions. Likewise, Courtesy Review should be considered as topic for an <br />upcoming BOCC/Planning Board work session. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): 1) Work toward consensus on as many issues as possible; <br />2) determine if County Attorney and/or assistant should be invited to <br />future Planning Board meeting; and <br />3) decide if Courtesy Review should be recommended as a topic for <br />discussion at future BOCC/Planning Board work session. <br />S iPtarrune 3oat:3'~0!i ; I'B h~lertirgs.?-I 1 ~~i r •.t'oucical R: tii~1v`douticst~ !'czY•ie!~.~ I':.llawvp Ahs ~~-~~-~}?.doc <br />
