at this review process. We've come through all of these steps, and that’s why you're hearing from 384 <br />the applicant tonight. And then echoing again that it's our recommendation that you hear the 385 <br />application, deliberate on the proposal and then consider the staff recommendation, that the 386 <br />proposal is consistent with the comprehensive plan and the ordinance and then make a 387 <br />recommendation to BOCC, which that hearing will most likely come in, tentatively, September 4th 388 <br />hearing, and that's all we have from staff. I think that answered our question and moved us 389 <br />forward in the slides. Did you have anything else for us staff? 390 <br /> 391 <br />Lamar Proctor: Anyone? 392 <br /> 393 <br />Dolores Bailey: Quick question, and just to anybody. In the yellow version, Option No. 3 says no burning of land 394 <br />clearing waste shall occur. How then will you get rid of the wood waste as you move trees? I 395 <br />guess I'm asking the applicant. 396 <br /> 397 <br />Michael Fiocco: The commitment is that that will not occur. 398 <br /> 399 <br />Dolores Bailey: Right. 400 <br /> 401 <br />Michael Fiocco: So, the trees will be removed, hauled off, chipped, often times, and can be used around campus. 402 <br /> 403 <br />Dolores Bailey: Okay. My second question for you then is, you mentioned right now you're two different zonings 404 <br />and so you're trying to combine them. What are the two zonings? 405 <br /> 406 <br />Michael Fiocco: A planned district housing and rural buffer. 407 <br /> 408 <br />Dolores Bailey: And so, the housing piece is going to go away? 409 <br /> 410 <br />Michael Fiocco: The conditional district that we're going to allows for residential use as well. 411 <br /> 412 <br />Dolores Bailey: Okay. And are you all planning on doing any residential? 413 <br /> 414 <br />Michael Fiocco: There will be some residential. There's residential on campus already today, and so those will 415 <br />continue to be used. 416 <br /> 417 <br />Dolores Bailey: And in the 15-year plan, I don't have any idea of how much housing you've got now, but housing is 418 <br />my thing, so, in the plans, going towards the 15-year, are you going to house more? 419 <br /> 420 <br />Michael Fiocco: Right now, there are no plans for new houses. It's plans to occupy the existing houses and use 421 <br />them for educational purposes. 422 <br /> 423 <br />Dolores Bailey: Okay. Would you consider, in the 15-year plan, doing some more housing? 424 <br /> 425 <br />Michael Fiocco: We have thought about doing some housing that could be used for visiting teachers or existing 426 <br />teachers. 427 <br /> 428 <br />Dolores Bailey: Okay. 429 <br /> 430 <br />Michael Fiocco: So, we have thought about that, and we thought that some of the structures that are already on 431 <br />campus could be those buildings. 432 <br /> 433 <br />Dolores Bailey: There's such a shortage of housing, and since you have that already going it would be wonderful, 434 <br />even if you just created housing for your teaching staff. 435 <br /> 436 <br />Michael Fiocco: Yeah. We have definitely thought about that. 437 <br /> 438 <br />13
