374 <br /> Approved 11/01/2017 <br /> 159 <br /> 160 David Blankfard asked what will be asked of Planning Board members at public meetings. <br /> 161 <br /> 162 Some Planning Board members commented that they are there for moral support. <br /> 163 <br /> 164 Lydia Wegman said that based on her experience, the BOCC may ask why the Planning Board voted as it did (i.e. <br /> 165 Why did the Planning Board vote as it did on Settler's Point?). The BOCC asks the members present so that they can <br /> 166 get the background. Sometimes BOCC members have questions about the minutes or related matters. <br /> 167 <br /> 168 Craig Benedict returned to the item for a vote, which he said again does not have to do with attendance. He asked <br /> 169 the Planning Board to make a recommendation to the BOCC on government-initiated amendments to the UDO <br /> 170 pertaining to public hearings. He read aloud the recommendation on page 332 in the packet. <br /> 171 <br /> 172 Tony Blake asked if this is to remove the"quarterly"from the public hearing verbiage, will it mean that Staff may have <br /> 173 up to 40 some potential target meetings. <br /> 174 <br /> 175 Ashley Moncado replied that there would be more like 20 public meetings. There are 20 regular BOCC meetings <br /> 176 scheduled for next year. <br /> 177 <br /> 178 Tony Blake said that he understood. <br /> 179 <br /> 180 MOTION by Randy Marshall to approve amendments to the UDO. Seconded by Dave Blankfard. <br /> 181 VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> 182 ***** <br /> 4 <br />
