Chair says aquifer ordinance is progressing; moratorium runs through November
Summary
Chair reported progress on an aquifer-related ordinance moving through the ZBA and said the committee hopes the ordinance can reach the full county board by October; the moratorium referenced in the discussion remains in effect through the end of November and is not expected to be extended.
In the chair’s report the committee heard an update on an ordinance tied to an aquifer task force (recorded in the transcript as the 'Bahama Aquifer task force' ordinance). The chair said the ordinance has been moving through the Zoning Board of Appeals and that there is a possibility it could return to the committee next month and then go to the county board with the hope of completion by October.
The chair also noted a moratorium connected to the subject matter that runs until the end of November and said there is a desire not to extend the moratorium further. “We have until the end of November on that moratorium, and we don't wanna extend it anymore,” the chair said. Committee members were encouraged to follow the ZBA progress and prepare for potential further consideration at upcoming county meetings.
