Notes and next steps

- Where the record lists a second without naming the seconder, the minutes record only “second” for the motion; roll call outcomes are recorded by name. If applicants or neighbors need clarifications on conditions or timing for permit applications they should contact their case manager in Jefferson County Planning & Zoning.
