Rezoning hearing procedures and swearing
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.

There are two rezoning agendas, regular and consent. Staff will present each application to the Board of County Commissioners if staff or planning commission has recommended approval and there's no opposition to the application. The application will be 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 the 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 hearings. The law in Florida is that mere public support or opposition of an application is insufficient for this board to take action.

Do you swear or affirm that you will any testimony you will give is the truth? So have you got? Thank you. Please be seated. When you come forward to the podium, as was mentioned, please give
your name and address for the record and acknowledge the fact that you were sworn. Thank you.
