Receive the revised information, <br />2. Deliberate on the proposal as desired, <br />3. Consider the Planning Director’s recommendation, and <br />4. Make a recommendation to the BOCC on the revised Statement of Consistency <br />(Attachment 5) and the proposed ordinance (Attachment 6). <br /> 232
