At the start of the April 24 meeting, the St. Mary's County Planning Commission approved the minutes from its April 17, 2017 meeting and accepted a staff/applicant request to postpone the public hearing on concept site plan 16‑1320004 (Hollywood Auto).

A representative asked the commission to postpone the Hollywood Auto concept site plan hearing “to no date certain” because the applicant had an upcoming meeting with the Maryland State Highway Administration that could affect the proposal. Staff told the commission the applicant's attorney, Chris Long Morris, was present and asked that any packet changes be provided to staff in a timely fashion so commissioners could review them before a future hearing. The commission did not open the public hearing for the case at the April 24 session and asked to be notified when the matter could be rescheduled.

Earlier in the meeting the commission asked whether members had corrections to the April 17 minutes. A commissioner moved to approve the minutes; the motion was seconded by Harold Willard and carried on a voice vote with no opposition recorded in the transcript.

No further action was taken on the Hollywood Auto application at the meeting; staff will notify the commission when the applicant and State Highway Administration have completed their review and when the item can be rescheduled.
