Is this helpful? There is a staffing 23 <br />change happening in the department and unless the Planning Board wants to see these 24 <br />calendars each month, this information may stop being produced. The genesis of the 25 <br />calendar was so special because Planning Board meeting dates could be chosen b ack 26 <br />when the Comprehensive Plan and the Buckhorn Village projects were being worked on 27 <br />because many special meetings were necessary. 28 <br /> 29 <br />Perdita Holtz: As you may be aware, Tina has moved to another department. We are evaluating all the things Tina 30 <br />did and if they should continue. The planning calendar was something Tina put together in the package. We wanted 31 <br />to check with you to see if you find it helpful, want to see it continue, etc. Pete has already told me that it’s something 32 <br />he uses. 33 <br /> 34 <br />Paul Guthrie: I usually set up my calendar and have this handy. 35 <br /> 36 <br />Tony Blake: I take this and put it on my Outlook calendar. 37 <br /> 38 <br />Perdita Holtz: We will continue the planning calendar. 39 <br /> 40 <br /> 41 <br />AGENDA ITEM 3: APPROVAL OF MINUTES 42 <br />MARCH 4, 2015 REGULAR MEETING 43 <br /> 44 <br />Lydia Wegman: On page 3, line 136 should read, “Can you help me understand why the county would want to 45 <br />change to the state provisions?” On page 4, line 170 and 172, DEAPR is misspelled. 46 <br /> 47 <br />Paul Guthrie: I don’t have a change, but I did want to make a comment on line 198 through 201. When I referred to, I 48 <br />wasn’t as clear as I should have been, that the constitutionality limit on sex offenders I mentioned had to do with the 49 <br />issue with the power of the state not that there were sex offenders under sentence and that could have constitutional 50 <br />implications for some of the things we were talking about in the placement of sexually related business because it 51 <br />has to do with basic rights of individuals that exercise certain freedom of rights. 52 <br /> 53 <br />MOTION by Bryant Warren to approve the Planning Board minutes with corrections. Seconded by Laura Nicholson. 54
