22 <br /> 1 Chair Bedford asked if a transcript should be provided by an independent company. She <br /> 2 said that a transcript seems that it would not be as accurate as a recording. She asked if it is <br /> 3 prescribed in the LIDO what a transcript might look like. <br /> 4 Cy Stober said it is not. He read from the LIDO what is required in the transcript. He said <br /> 5 staff can find that a transcript is insufficient, based on the recording. <br /> 6 Chair Bedford asked if staff would be required to review the recording. <br /> 7 Cy Stober said that is the intention, although it is not reflected in the text. <br /> 8 <br /> 9 Commissioner Greene made a motion to open the public hearing, seconded by <br /> 10 Commissioner Fowler. <br /> 11 <br /> 12 VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> 13 <br /> 14 There was no one signed up to speak for the public hearing. <br /> 15 <br /> 16 Vice-Chair McKee made a motion to close the public hearing, seconded by Commissioner <br /> 17 Hamilton. <br /> 18 <br /> 19 VOTE: UNANIMOUS <br /> 20 <br /> 21 Commissioner Hamilton thanks staff for bringing this forward. She said that it makes sense <br /> 22 that the developer would be charged with presenting this to the community. She said that she <br /> 23 leans toward having a staff person there. She said trust in government and developers is slim. <br /> 24 She said having staff there means someone can observe the whole environment. She said there <br /> 25 may be parts of the NIM that aren't captured by the recording. <br /> 26 Vice-Chair McKee said it allows staff to serve as eyes and ears to ensure oversight of the <br /> 27 process. <br /> 28 Commissioner Greene said there is some benefit of not having anyone from the county <br /> 29 there. She said either amendment would be better than the status quo, but her preference is the <br /> 30 Planning Director's recommendation. <br /> 31 Commissioner Portie-Ascott asked if there were instances of meetings being contentious <br /> 32 and if staff knows how to handle those situations. She asked if it would put staff in an awkward <br /> 33 situation. <br /> 34 Bonnie Hammersley said this issue was one of the issues she discussed with Cy Stober <br /> 35 when he was hired. She said it has been a big problem. She said there was a public perception <br /> 36 that the county was running the meeting and was in favor of the project. She said for people <br /> 37 unfamiliar with county government, the role of staff, even in an observational capacity, make it <br /> 38 confusing for the public because it is the developer that is running the meeting. She said the NIM <br /> 39 is to inform the neighborhood about the project. She said there are many instances where staff <br /> 40 will be available to the public to answer questions. She said that planning staff were demonized <br /> 41 by some unpopular projects, because they were presenting projects and running the NIMs. She <br /> 42 said negative comments were directed at certain people. She said it gets political when there's a <br /> 43 misunderstanding. She said that her role is to insulate staff from politics and it gets political when <br /> 44 there is a misunderstanding of the role that staff is playing. <br /> 45 Commissioner Richards said it is interesting other municipalities don't have staff present. <br /> 46 She said it is a responsibility for the developer to engage with neighbors. She said that it may free <br /> 47 staff to do more value added discussions with the developer. She said it should be seen as an <br /> 48 opportunity for the developer. She said the Bucee's proposal stands out in her mind and how <br /> 49 staff got hammered by the community. <br />
