If additional information is needed, the BOCC should continue the public hearing to a date /time certain in order to hear the information in a quasi - judicial setting. Patrick Mallett: I'll briefly walk you through the packet. This is everything that's required for a special use permit, per our ordinance. On page 1 -4, you've got the abstract, with all the overview information. On page 5 -138, is their actual application. That's rather lengthy, but there are a lot of pieces that have to be submitted by the Applicant to support the findings of fact. Page 140 is the site assessment, that's Attachment 3. Attachment 4, page 141 -150 are the findings of fact. Those are the staff recommendations — all the applicable findings of fact are in the affirmative, both from the staff perspective and the Planning Board. Then we have Attachment number 6; the neighborhood information materials, documenting that neighborhood meeting. Attachment 7- page 215 - public hearing mailing certifications, which are required. Attachment number 8 is the expert of the Planning Board minutes. Attachment number 9 is the Board of Commissioners findings of fact. And Attachment number 10, on page 227, is the legal advertisement. I would draw your attention, obviously, to Attachment number 9, which is the item that, once the hearing is closed, you will go through each of those findings, and make your determinations. With that I'm free to answer any questions you may have. Questions from Board of County Commissioners Commissioner Price: In the hand out, you mention the chain link security fence, and then on this map, it says it has barbed wire (on top). So which is... Patrick Mallett: It would be chain link with barbed wire on the top around the whole thing (peremiter of the solar facility). Chair Dorosin: I just have one: Attachment 9 that says "BOCC Findings of Fact," that's from the last time, that's from the February one when we heard this the first time. Is that right? Patrick Mallett: That's an updated version of that. You had findings of fact that you originally considered when you originally approved this permit request. Chair Dorosin: These are the blank ones that we have to find tonight. Patrick Mallett: That's right. That's where you go through and reapprove each one of those findings of fact. And I would note that at the end of that is the conditions of approval. You would include those as part of your decision, and all of those — conditions 2 -11 — are the same as they were in September 2016. The one exception is the conservation easement language that was changed to replace it with the word natural buffer. Chair Dorosin: And that's number one of those 11. Patrick Mallett: Yes.
