Rezoning public hearing procedures and oath
What the county recorded
This item is not from the published agenda
It is a stretch of the recording that this archive identified as a separate matter — a call to order, a recess, or something taken up that the agenda does not list. There is no official title, no staff recommendation and no disposition, because the county never recorded one. Everything below is inferred.

for rezoning? Be happy to, Mr. Chairman. There are two rezoning agendas, regular and consent. The staff will present each application to the Board of County Commissioners. If staff or planning commission has recommended approval and there's no opposition, the application will be considered. by the board without further presentation. If staff or planning commission has recommended denial or if there is opposition to the application, the applicant will be given five minutes for presentation, the opposition will be given three minutes for each individual or five minutes for a group
representative, and the applicant will be given three minutes for rebuttal. Any individual disagreeing with staff or planning commission recommendation or anyone wishing to object to any condition of the rezoning may at this time request that a petition be pulled from the consent agenda, in which case that application will be heard under the regular agenda later on during the meeting. Otherwise, all rezoning applications on the consent agenda will be approved by a single motion and vote. If you wish to speak to any
petition, please give your name and address and whether or not you've been sworn for the record These are quasi judicial public hearing. The law in Florida is that mere public support or opposition of an application is insufficient for this Board to take action. Please limit your comments to those criteria for rezoning found within the Board's Land Development Code. Mr. Clerk, would you like to swear folks in who would like to testify?
Yes, sir. If anyone is present that wishes to speak to these rezoning items, either for or against, if you would please stand at this time. Again, if it is your intention to speak for or against any rezoning item to be heard, please stand. Raise your right hand. Do you and each of you swear? The testimony you will give in these matters is the truth, so have you got it? Thank you. When you come to the podium, please give your name and address and acknowledge that you
were sworn. Thank you.
