256 <br /> Approved 8.7.24 <br /> 353 <br /> 354 Charity Kirk: But it's 3 minutes per item. <br /> 355 <br /> 356 Adam Beeman: Correct. <br /> 357 <br /> 358 Charity Kirk: So, which item are you? <br /> 359 <br /> 360 Adam Beeman: Item 7 is the first one up. So, comprehensive plan, future land use map, and text <br /> 361 amendments, but before we start that, Laura Streitfeld has the floor for 12 minutes. <br /> 362 <br /> 363 Statler Gilfillen: Can I just make a comment. I think we all remember that one of the greatest speeches in <br /> 364 American history about one of the most complex things ever said was the Gettysburg <br /> 365 address. Lincoln condensed it down into 2 minutes. You have each got 3'/z minutes. <br /> 366 Thank you. <br /> 367 <br /> 368 Chris Johnston: I apologize, so to confirm we have re-split up the 3-minute speaking time for someone <br /> 369 based on— <br /> 370 <br /> 371 Charity Kirk: I thought it was 9 minutes total. <br /> 372 <br /> 373 Adam Beeman: Based on what I have, I'm going to read your name and if you happen to be on another <br /> 374 page, you're going to get your name and you come back for another 3 minutes and if <br /> 375 you're on another page, I'm going to read your name again, you're going to come up and <br /> 376 get your third 3 minutes. That's the way that this has been labeled. <br /> 377 <br /> 378 Chris Johnston: All right. Does there need to be a clarification of what the speaker is talking about when <br /> 379 they come up to speak. <br /> 380 <br /> 381 Charity Kirk: I thought it was just 9 minutes total and all at once. <br /> 382 <br /> 383 Adam Beeman: Nope. Because, technically, you signed up to speak on that particular amendment, and if <br /> 384 you don't, you're not talking about that topic, then it's kind of just tough. I'm just going to <br /> 385 let everybody have their time and we're going to listen to what everybody has to say. <br /> 386 <br /> 387 Charity Kirk: I would, I would rather not have people repeat the same thing 3 minutes, 3 minutes, and 3 <br /> 388 minutes. <br /> 389 <br /> 390 Adam Beeman: Correct, that's why I asked to not be redundant. Just stand up and agree with the <br /> 391 previous person if that's what you do, make it strong. The floor is yours. <br /> 392 <br /> 393 AGENDA ITEM 7: COMPREHENSIVE PLAN FUTURE LAND USE MAP(FLUM)AND TEXT AMENDMENTS—To <br /> 394 continue review and make a recommendation to the BOCC on applicant-initiated amendments to the 2030 <br /> 395 Comprehensive Plan to amend the FLUM to expand a Rural Neighborhood Activity Node (RNAN); and to <br /> 396 amend the text of Appendix F: Land Use and Zoning Matrix. The BOCC public hearing date is "to be <br /> 397 determined." <br /> 398 <br /> 399 Laura Streitfeld: I'm Laura Streitfeld, and I live on Morrow Farm Lane off of Morrow Mill Road in Bingham <br /> 400 Township. I'm speaking first about Item 7. According to the planning director, until this <br /> 401 application no developer has asked to change the county's comprehensive plan, which is <br /> 402 guided by robust public participation. This meeting is continued and although some of us <br />
