Summary

Commissioners placed the zoning commission on the June 30 agenda to set officers and organize; staff reminded the board that a public hearing on the county growth policy is scheduled the same day and flagged questions about whether regulations can be adopted prior to finalizing the growth policy.

Commissioners agreed to place the newly formed zoning commission on the June 30 agenda to select officers and begin organizing its work. Staff said the zoning meeting would be scheduled at 4:30 p.m. following the commissioners' meeting and suggested the commission could use that first session to determine roles and draft bylaws.

The board also discussed the county's growth policy, which has a public hearing set for the same date. Commissioners noted that, in their view, regulations should not be adopted until the growth policy is approved but asked staff to check the code before making any firm commitments. Staff will also clarify whether the committee will have any budget authority or whether expenses will be borne out of the general fund.

Commissioners asked staff to notify members of the zoning commission and publicize the dates; they also asked the clerk to ensure all required public-notice timelines are met. The item will return once the committee has organized and staff has provided any clarifying legal guidance.
