DRAFT <br /> <br />OC Board of Adjustment – 11/9/15 Page 79 of 156 <br /> <br />to move or change the meeting venue to a larger facility, preferably the wooded meeting facility, 1 <br />where the County Commissioners meet. Do you think it’s necessary? 2 <br /> 3 <br />Barry Katz: Well remember last time. It was packed. People were standing. Do you anticipate the 4 <br />same kind of crowd? 5 <br /> 6 <br />Michael Harvey: I do. 7 <br /> 8 <br />Barry Katz: Did you get a request for a larger room? 9 <br /> 10 <br />Michael Harvey: No, but the rules and procedure give the Chair… Yeah, and we wanted to bring it 11 <br />up now since we can actually get ahead of the game. 12 <br /> 13 <br />Matt Hughes: Is the facility available that day? 14 <br /> 15 <br />Michael Harvey: We believe it is. 16 <br /> 17 <br />Matt Hughes: I see no reason not to. 18 <br /> 19 <br />Barry Katz: Yeah, sure. 20 <br /> 21 <br />Matt Hughes: Only because it got quite hot the last two times. 22 <br /> 23 <br />Barry Katz: I remember the facility. Acoustically it’s as good or better than here? 24 <br /> 25 <br />Michael Harvey: I’m not going to say that, but there is an audio system that we’ll be taking 26 <br />advantage of. It’s a larger space so obviously acoustically… 27 <br /> 28 <br />Barry Katz: I can remember attending meetings there and having a little challenge. 29 <br /> 30 <br />Samantha Cabe: I would just suggest if everyone wants to do that we make sure they can actually 31 <br />sit in the actual chairs. The last meeting we had there we were sitting down with sort of, not 32 <br />functional where the screens were. 33 <br /> 34 <br />Michael Harvey: I agree totally. 35 <br /> 36 <br />Samantha Cabe: Ok. 37 <br /> 38 <br />Michael Harvey: So if it’s, Ms. Barrows, if you’re amendable to it... 39 <br /> 40 <br />Karen Barrows: Mm-Hmm. 41 <br /> 42 <br />Michael Harvey: Ok. Then we will work to facilitate that and keep Board members apprised of 43 <br />where we are. The only other item before we reconvene is I have placed an item at your desk. It is 44 <br />a set of three emails that the Planning Staff received on Sunday January the 22nd from Ms. Amber 45 <br />Corbin concerning this project. We will address them at the appropriate time. Madame Chair, 46 <br />thank you. 47 <br /> 48 <br />Samantha Cabe: Thank you. Alright, so we will pick up our hearing. I believe we were hearing 49 <br />evidence from the opposition and, forgive me, do you recall which witness we were hearing from? 50 <br />81
