County planning commissioner asks New Haven to allow single‑member representation on planning boards
Summary
Shawn Moore, a Nelson County planning commissioner, asked New Haven to amend the Interlocal Agreement to reconfigure the Board of Adjustments and Planning Commission so the city would appoint one representative to each board; the mayor and commissioners gave consensus to proceed.
Shawn Moore, identified in the meeting minutes as a Nelson County planning commissioner, introduced himself to the Jan. 16 New Haven Board of Commissioners and asked the board to consider reconfiguring the Board of Adjustments and Planning Commission.
Moore asked the city to amend the Interlocal Agreement so New Haven would appoint a single representative to both boards rather than multiple local appointees. The minutes record that Mayor Linda Mattingly and the commissioners offered consensus for Moore to proceed; Moore will provide an amendment for the commission to review at a future meeting.
The change, as described in the minutes, would reduce New Haven’s appointments to one person on each board. The minutes do not include the proposed amendment text or a timeline for formal consideration and vote.
Commissioners did not take a formal vote at the Jan. 16 meeting; the record indicates only that an amendment will be provided for later review.
