This section has been reformatted on the advice of the Staff Attorney. 4 These proposed revisions here and on subsequent pages incorporate the discussion the Planning Board had in October, November,and December 2014 and which the BOCC discussed on May 12,2015. The cadence of the review process would be revised to have the Planning Board make its recommendation prior to the public hearing. Notices would be mailed to nearby property owners and a sign(s)would be posted;this revision will notify nearby property owners of potential changes much earlier in the process. Although the Planning Board meeting would not be an official public hearing,the public could address the Planning Board (the existing requirement for written comments only is not proposed to continue in this revised process)and the Planning Board can take all public comments into consideration when making its recommendation. 5 Staff proposes that this entire section (2.3.4) be deleted because it is relevant only in conjunction with Section 2.3.7. Rather than limiting"principal"amendments to being heard "generally"only once per year(as Section 2.3.7 does),staff proposes that any Comprehensive Plan amendment could be heard at any of the quarterly public hearings. Deletion of this subsection will cause the renumbering of subsequent subsections in Section 2.3.
