25 Michael Harvey said that would not be possible because of the heavy workload associated with getting meeting 1289 packets together. Draft minutes may not be done in time and the BOCC needs to be able to review the draft minutes 1290 to understand the Planning Board’s decision. There is not sufficient time. 1291 1292 Lydia Wegman said that she understood. 1293 1294 Kim Piracci asked – what if this gets put off for 6 months. Why would the developer say “nevermind?” 1295 1296 Lydia Wegman quickly noted that this project could potentially be heard in February 2018 at the quarterly public 1297 hearing, a 3 month delay. 1298 1299 Kim Piracci asked that if it were 6 months, why would the developer want to exit? 1300 1301 Jim Parker said that they are contractually-bond to the land. 1302 1303 Tony Blake said that it sounded like there was a contingency at play and there is an end date on it. 1304 1305 Kim Piracci asked if these properties had already been purchased. 1306 1307 Paul Guthrie said that it sounded like options to buy. 1308 1309 Jim Parker said that they are options, which is typical. 1310 1311 PB MEMBER? asked if Mr. Parker could tell them when the contract expires. 1312 1313 Jim Parker told him that he will not tell the Board when the contracts expire as a matter of confidentiality between the 1314 seller and the buyers. 1315 1316 Lydia Wegman agreed that it was a matter of confidentiality. 1317 1318 Randy Marshall said that he is ready to make a motion. 1319 1320 Buddy Hartley said that this is as good an application that he has seen. Mr. Parker has covered about everything that 1321 needs to be covered. For the Board to make a recommendation on this, there is nothing that is not to approve. He 1322 said that the County does need senior housing somewhere. He said that he will be a senior someday too. 1323 1324 Lydia Wegman asked if there were any additional comments. She thanked everyone for coming to the meeting to 1325 speak and thanked Mr. Parker and his team for coming, and to Michael Harvey and Craig Benedict for their help this 1326 evening. She said that from her perspective, she appreciated the applicant’s willingness for continued discussions on 1327 the environmental and transportation assessments; this is is very important. That component is a plus of this 1328 application. She did hear concerns about transportation and she does hope that the developer and other businesses 1329 will work closely with members of the community on transportation and environmental concerns. She asked again if 1330 anyone else had additional comments. 1331 1332 Michael Harvey said that if there is a consensus among Board members that the item be tabled until November, it is 1333 the Board’s prerogative. If the decision is that there is a consensus to recommend this project, there are 1334 modifications that need to be made to Attachment 7. He will walk the Board member through making the motion on 1335 this part in order to address the Board’s comments and to fix some items in the review that he did not catch earlier. 1336 He needs to ensure that the motion is consistent and clean to address all concerns from Board members, and 1337 modifications that ensure District 3 is eliminated from any review, point or discussion. 1338 1339 Tony Blake clarified that Item C would include Attachment 7 as amended. 1340 1341 29
