4 Draft 1 the board are based solely on competent, substantial, and material evidence presented during a scheduled evidentiary 2 hearing on a specific item. As detailed within Section 2.12.2 of the UDO the Board chair reserves the right to exclude 3 evidence and testimony that is deemed: `incompetent, irrelevant, immaterial, or unduly repetitious' and therefore fails to 4 reasonably address the issues before the Board of Adjustment. While it should be noted there is no time limit on the 5 presentation of evidence, the Chair asks that the presentation of evidence be consistent with established policies, rules 6 of procedure, and acceptable levels of decorum to ensure a fair and equitable hearing for all parties. 7 8 9 AGENDA ITEM 5: CASES 10 11 A.
