Hobart authority affirms planning commission's grant of fill permit for petition 2601

The Hobart City Redevelopment Authority voted to affirm the planning commission's decision to grant a fill permit filed under petition number 2601, the authority announced at its meeting.

Chair (speaker 1) moved to affirm the planning commission's decision "having considered all of the evidence presented both in writing and on the record," citing Hoover Municipal Code Section 15904 on fill permits. A staff member had advised the authority it had the power to "affirm, modify or reverse the plan commission decision." The motion passed on a voice vote marked by members saying "Aye."

The appellants and interested parties listed by the authority included several named individuals and entities who had filed appeals; the chair said the authority's decisions would be communicated "in written forms" to each person who filed an appeal. The filing referenced municipal code language related to fill permits and the authority said it relied on the written findings from prior hearings in making its decision.

The authority did not record a roll-call tally in the transcript; the result was announced as a unanimous voice vote. The authority did not specify conditions attached to the permit in the public record during the meeting. The chair said the written notice will go to the people who filed appeals, closing the item for today's agenda.

The decision completes the local administrative appeal process at this body; further legal remedies, if any, were not discussed during the meeting.
