45 <br /> 1 Beth Bronson: My only comment to the board members,fellow board members is this vested period of five years versus two years, <br /> 2 1 don't doubt their ability to get it done in five years. I just kind of I guess wonder if that is appropriate condition to put in and that <br /> 3 it's a variation of what we would require in two years for a project like this. <br /> 4 <br /> 5 Leon Meyers:Well, I don't think there's any question that the board has the authority to approve that vesting. <br /> 6 <br /> 7 Beth Bronson: I guess it's, do we need a point of clarification I guess from counsel? Is that part of this Exhibit J,the conditions of <br /> 8 approval? Does vested period of 5 years rather than the standard special use permit timeline? <br /> 9 <br /> 10 James Bryan: I would, partly because of the hour, but I can't even believe that. I just don't know. I would recommend reopening <br /> 11 the hearing and asking either staff or the applicant, yeah,staff knows, so. <br /> 12 <br /> 13 Leon Meyers: I probably should ask for a motion to reopen the public hearing. <br /> 14 <br /> 15 Jeff Scott: I make a motion that we reopen the public hearing. <br /> 16 <br /> 17 MOTION made by Jeff Scott. Seconded by Beth Bronson. <br /> 18 VOTE: Unanimous <br /> 19 <br /> 20 Leon Meyers: None opposed. Hearing is open, so Beth you have a question for staff. <br /> 21 <br /> 22 Beth Bronson:Yes, board clarification for staff is that is this part of the conditions for this 5-year vested period variance from what <br /> 23 would be in a normal Special Use Permit? <br /> 24 <br /> 25 Cy Stober: So in 2.7.13 time limits and extensions, Item E, the applicant may request that the special use permit be vested as a <br /> 26 site specific vesting plan in accordance with requirements of Section 2.5.5, and 2.5.5(A)at the option of the applicant as a site plan <br /> 27 may be vested for a period of not less than 2, no more than 5 years. Multi-phase developments shall be vested for a period of <br /> 28 7 years from the time of site plan or approval is granted for the initial phase of the multi-phase development. Multi-phase <br /> 29 developments have some definition in the statute.That I don't know is applicable here, but yes,the 2 to 5-year vesting window is <br /> 30 allowed by both our ordinance and state law. <br /> 31 <br /> 32 Leon Meyers:Anything else before we close the public hearing again? All right, public hearing is closed. Any further discussion <br /> 33 on the board? I just remind the board that the findings that the staff has prepared begin on Page 449 and following that you find a <br /> 34 sample motion for approval or denial.And to just remind Board members again,the process here is we would consider a motion <br /> 35 regarding findings on this case, and then a separate motion to grant or deny the special use permit. Motion regarding findings <br /> 36 would be in order. <br /> 37 <br /> 38 Adam Beeman: I make a motion to approve the findings of fact by the Orange County Board Adjustment pertaining to a request <br /> 39 submitted by Lawrence Road Partners, LLC purposing recreational facilities on a parcel of property off of Lawrence Road and US <br /> 40 Highway 70 in the agenda packet on Page 456,457,yes 456 and 457. <br /> 41 <br /> 42 Leon Meyers: Motion. Do I hear a second? <br /> 43 <br /> 44 Nathan Robinson: Second. <br /> 45 <br /> 46 Leon Meyers:Any discussion on the motion to approve the findings? All in favor please say aye. <br /> 47 <br /> 48 MOTION made by Adam Beeman. Seconded by Nathan Robinson. <br /> 49 VOTE: Unanimous <br /> 50 <br /> 51 Leon Meyers: None opposed, motion carries. Motion would be in order to grant or deny the Special Use Permit and I would ask <br /> 52 that,that motion be fairly specific regarding the conditions that are included. <br /> 53 <br /> 54 Adam Beeman: I make a motion to approve the conclusions of the Orange County Board of Adjustment pertaining to a request <br /> 55 submitted by Lawrence Road Partners, LLC proposing recreational facilities on a parcel of property off of Lawrence Road and <br />
