DRAFT 2 AGENDA ITEM 4: PUBLIC CHARGE 1 2 Matt Hughes read the public charge. 3 4 The Board of Adjustment pledges to the citizens of Orange County its respect. The Board asks its citizens to 5 conduct themselves in a respectful, courteous manner, both with the Board and with fellow citizens. At any 6 time should any member of the Board or any citizen fail to observe this public charge, the Chair will ask the 7 offending person to leave the meeting until that individual regains personal control. Should decorum fail to 8 be restored, the Chair will recess the meeting until such time that a genuine commitment to this public 9 charge is observed. All electronic devices such as cell phones, pagers, and computers should please be 10 turned off or set to silent/vibrate. 11 12 The Board of Adjustment is a quasi-judicial administrative body established in accordance with the 13 provisions of local regulations and State law to perform specified functions essential to the County’s 14 planning program. Action(s) taken by the Board are based solely on competent, substantial, and material 15 evidence presented during a previously scheduled and advertised public hearing on a specific item. As 16 detailed within Section 2.12.2 of the UDO the Board chair reserves the right to exclude evidence and 17 testimony that is deemed “incompetent, irrelevant, immaterial, or unduly repetitious” and therefore fails to 18 reasonably address the issues before the Board of Adjustment. While it should be noted there is no time 19 limit on the presentation of evidence, the Chair asks that the presentation of evidence be consistent with 20 established policies, rules of procedure, and acceptable levels of decorum to ensure a fair and equitable 21 hearing for all parties. 22 23 AGENDA ITEM 5: A-1-17 – Appeal of a decision concerning a parcel of property 24 located at the intersection of Morrow Mill Road and Millikan Road. 25 (PIN: 9729-50-7168) 26 27 In accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11 and 2.26 of the Orange County Unified 28 Development Ordinance (UDO) the applicants have appealed the decision of the Zoning Officer as 29 articulated within a November 7, 2016 letter addressed to Michael Rettie, Orange County Building 30 Official, related to the Zoning Compliance Permit review for building permit number CB16-0020. 31 This aforementioned permit involved development on a parcel of property identified utilizing 32 Orange County Parcel Identification Number (PIN) 9729-50-7168 owned by Southeast Property 33 Group LLC care of Ms. Kara Brewer. 34 35 Specifically the applicants allege staff erred in determining the property, and the structure being 36 erected on same consistent with building permit application CB16-0020, is being used for bona fide 37 farm purposes. 38 39 Karen Barrows: Michael, you didn’t want to?
