Zoning commission hearing drew 30-plus speakers; supervisors told to review setbacks and decommissioning
Summary
County planning staff told supervisors the zoning commission recommended approval of a pending zoning matter after a public hearing attended by about 30—60 people; the commission asked the board to take a closer look at setback and decommissioning language.
County planning staff reported that the zoning commission held a public hearing the night before that drew roughly 30 to 40 members of the public and a state representative.
Planning staff said the commission voted to recommend approval of the application to the Board of Supervisors but recorded ongoing concerns about the sufficient setbacks and the proposed decommissioning plan. Staff asked supervisors to "look at a little deeper" the setbacks and decommissioning language as the matter proceeds to the supervisors' agenda.
Staff also told the board the commission struggled with the motion at the hearing, but ultimately forwarded a recommendation. The planning staff urged continued public engagement as the item moves from the zoning commission record to the supervisors for final action.
Ending: The board heard the update and noted that the public turnout had been substantial; no final supervisor action on the zoning application was recorded at this meeting.
