Summary

The planning commission voted to table its recommendation on the Sycamore Cross CUP and requested site visits and follow-up, scheduling coordination and proposing dates ahead of the December meeting.

After extended public comment and commissioner questions about traffic, buffers and decommissioning, a commissioner moved to table the conditional use permit to the next meeting so that commissioners could conduct site visits and gather more information.

The motion to table (moved by the commissioner who requested site visits during discussion) was seconded, and the planning commission voted to table and consider the matter at its next scheduled meeting. Staff committed to coordinate with AES and commissioners to set site-visit dates and to provide materials and a proposed schedule ahead of the December meeting so that commissioners could inspect the proposed array locations and staging areas in person.

Staff reminded commissioners that if more than two commissioners attend a site visit, it must be noticed as a public meeting, and county legal staff said they will work with staff to ensure any visits comply with open-meeting rules.
