46 <br /> 10. County Attorney's Report <br /> John Roberts said the legislature is returning tomorrow, with the primary stated focus of <br /> COVID relief. <br /> John Roberts referred to the Research Triangle Logistical Park information, which was <br /> discussed at length earlier this evening. He said the BOCC has received a great deal of <br /> information/communication about this topic, some of which is false and inaccurate. He said it is <br /> unusual to have a rezoning project with such community interest, especially prior to the BOCC <br /> even receiving the project materials. He encouraged the Board to keep an open mind. <br /> Commissioner Marcoplos thanked John Roberts for his report. He asked if more <br /> information can be included when notices are sent to neighbors, to better explain the process of <br /> BOCC decisions. <br /> John Roberts said the Planning Department gives much more information than is <br /> required by law in its letters, but he will follow up with the exact details. <br /> Commissioner Marcoplos said perhaps too much information is being sent out. <br /> Bonnie Hammersley said staff is putting together an FAQ. <br /> Travis Myren said it will be ready tomorrow. <br /> Chair Rich said to refer the public to that page. <br /> 11. * Appointments <br /> NONE <br /> 12.
