9 42 <br /> 1 tracks. I think if the houses aren't affected, I think the bigger tracks of land are not going to be <br /> 2 affected. So I was really focusing on the residential uses. <br /> 3 <br /> 4 Pete Hallenbeck: And, of course, your report is entered as evidence. So the Planning Board <br /> 5 will be able to review that, correct. <br /> 6 <br /> 7 Tom Hester: Good. Thank you. <br /> 8 <br /> 9 Pete Hallenbeck: And I think we have a question from a Commissioner. <br /> 10 <br /> 11 Commissioner Rich: I have a question. I think this is possibly for Mr. Harvey. Can you just <br /> 12 run through the process so we're talking about a portion of this property that's as Commissioner <br /> 13 Dorosin asked, is staying one property, it's not being broken down into any or into two parcels. <br /> 14 What is the process for development of the other part of the property? <br /> 15 <br /> 16 Chair McKee: We have to follow the procedure. I'm sorry. You'll get a chance to speak. <br /> 17 <br /> 18 Michael Harvey: One of the conditions that'll be associated with the Special Use Permit is, <br /> 19 obviously, it'll have to go through a subdivision process. As this will be an exempt subdivision — <br /> 20 meaning it'll be larger than 10 acres—will be exempt. And what that translates to is that the <br /> 21 County Planning Staff will actually have to verify that the boundaries of the new lot here actually <br /> 22 comply with any approved site plan for the Special Use Permit. But it will be reviewed and <br /> 23 approved through the exempt process. Meaning, we're not going to do anything else other than <br /> 24 verify its compliance with the SUP. As far as development of the southern parcel of the <br /> 25 property, it will allowed — be allowed to develop consistent with its current zoning. The issuance <br /> 26 of the SUP has no bearing on this potential parcel of property. So, for example, if it was an <br /> 27 undeveloped parcel, could they develop a single family residence on it? The answer is yes. <br /> 28 They would have to go through the site plan review process or the plot plan review process as <br /> 29 spelled out in section 2.4 of the Unified Development Ordinance, consistent with the building <br /> 30 permit application. <br /> 31 <br /> 32 Patrick Mallet: I would just like to add to that. The revisions that they submitted today, clarify <br /> 33 that there's a line that defines the limits of the Special Use Permit. <br /> 34 <br /> 35 Commissioner Rich: Sorry, I didn't get a chance to read that until it got set down. <br /> 36 <br /> 37 Patrick Mallet: Understood. <br /> 38 <br /> 39 Commissioner Rich: I wasn't in my easy chair, checking it out. <br /> 40 <br /> 41 Patrick Mallet: It defines the future lot line and the limits of the Special Use Permits. So, 1 <br /> 42 think, in this case, it's very well specified where they intend to locate the solar arrays. And 1 <br /> 43 would add —this is a little bit unique, in the sense that you would typically see a lease <br /> 44 arrangement. This is a purchase. And as a result the purchase will create a specifically defined <br /> 45 property boundary area through the subdivision process. <br /> 46 <br /> 47 Commissioner Rich: Thank you. <br /> 48 <br /> 49 Pete Hallenbeck: Alright. We have a number of people who signed up to speak on this. What <br /> 50 I'd like to do at this point is have anyone who wishes to speak on this come up and get sworn in. <br /> 51 And then we'll listen to what you have to say. Do we have anyone here who wishes to speak? <br />
