Approved 3113117 1 2 Samantha Cabe: Alright, the January 23, 2017 meeting of the Orange County Board of 3 Adjustment will come to order. I apologize for being here a few minutes late. Do we have a new 4 agenda or do we pick up right where we left off? 5 6 Michael Harvey: Well, before we call or reconvene the public hearing we need to make the Board 7 aware of a couple of things. 8 9 Samantha Cabe: Ok. 10 11 Michael Harvey: The first thing is at your place this evening you have your Orange County Board 12 Member Disclosure forms. It's that time of year again. If you could fill that out and get them back 13 to me as quickly as you can Tom Freeman would appreciate it. And I will appreciate you in helping 14 to get Tom Freeman off my case. Second of all, you have before you the Board of Adjustment 15 calendar for the year. This lays out when we're going to be having meetings. Per your rules and 16 procedure in the Orange County Unified Development Ordinance you typically meet the second 17 Monday of the month, unless there's a conflict. There are a couple of conflicts this year where the 18 meetings fall on a public hearing date with the County Commissioners per County Commissioner 19 Policy you are to move to the following Monday so there's no conflicts and the Staff doesn't have 20 to try to figure out how to be at two places at once. And the first thing I'd like this Board to do per 21 your rules and procedure is acknowledge and adopt the calendar. 22 23 Samantha Cabe: Do I have a motion to adopt the calendar that's been presented to us as our 24 calendar for the upcoming year 2017? 25 26 Motion made by Matt Hughes to adopt the calendar for the upcoming year 2017. Seconded by 27 Barry Katz. 28 29 VOTE: Unanimous 30 31 Samantha Cabe: We adopt the calendar presented by Staff as the Board Of Adjustment calendar 32 for the year 2017. 33 34 Michael Harvey: We currently have no February meetings scheduled, so if you'd like to have a 35 motion to cancel the February regular meeting. 36 37 Motion made by Barry Katz to cancel the February 28th meeting. Seconded by Karen Barrows. 38 39 VOTE: Unanimous 40 41 Samantha Cabe: Alright, no February meeting. 42 43 Michael Harvey: You have a . March meeting. That March meeting is the review of appeal 44 submitted by neighbors of the Barn of Chapel Hill challenging the determination made by Staff 45 concerning the status of the property as a farm. This is slighted to be presented at your March 13th 46 meeting. As you know your regular Chair Samantha Cabe is recused from acting on this particular 47 request Karen Barrows will be serving as Chairperson. The question has come up whether or not 48 this venue, this location, was appropriate to handle the crowd at the meetings. Per the rules and 49 procedure the Chair person of the Board of Adjustment has the ability to move the meeting if they 50 determine it necessary to accommodate crowds, to accommodate any change or potential issue OC Board of Adjustment — 12/12/16 Page 78 of 156
