County Manager's Report <br /> Bonnie Hammersley reminded the Board of the upcoming Budget Public Hearing on May <br /> 9, 2023 beginning at 7:00 pm at the Whitted Building.

County Attorney's Report <br /> John Roberts said he wanted to address Commissioner Fowler's question to Cy Stober. <br /> He said the Planning Director and the Planning Board recommended approval of the conditional <br /> rezoning request tonight, and Planning staff provides the Board with a Statement of Consistency <br /> that includes a Statement of Reasonableness as part of the recommendation. He said because <br /> the last conditional rezoning request was denied by the Board, the Statement of Consistency <br /> provided by the Planning staff was not appropriate, which was why the Board had to make a <br /> statement of unreasonableness. He said he does not think it would be appropriate under the <br /> ordinance for a Planning Director to provide both a recommendation to approve and a <br /> recommendation to deny in the same agenda packet, and it would be confusing to the Board and <br /> to the public to have competing documents. <br /> Commissioner Fowler thanked John Roberts for explaining the reason for the difference. <br /> 11. *Appointments <br /> None <br /> 12.
