Summary

In a July 27 reconvened work session the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors directed staff to incorporate agreed mapping and ordinance edits, post a revised draft online, and hold additional public input meetings at area high schools as part of the Land Use Classification review.

The Planning Commission reconvened with the Board of Supervisors on July 27 for a Land Use Classification work session. Deputy County Administrator Matthew Hankins reviewed mapping and ordinance edits made per prior direction and asked for final decisions on several outstanding items.

"The Board has directed staff to host additional public input meetings at the area high schools," Hankins said.

The joint session concluded with staff tasked to produce the revised materials and schedule the school-based public input meetings; no final ordinance adoption occurred at this meeting, which the commission adjourned at 6:57 p.m.
