Appeals overturned and reappointment update

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.

Denise

Will you move to adjourn?

Jaimie Girardi

Quickly. Denise, since yesterday was the first time we had an appeal from the new planning commission to the board, I do think it would be helpful if we tell if you told the planning commission when they've been overturned. Okay. So I think you should tell them what happened yesterday.

Denise

Sure. So at the Board of County Commissioners meeting on Tuesday. Is that what you're speaking of, David? At Tuesday's Board of County Commissioners meeting, um, the Board of County Commissioners move to reappoint Charles Gray and Kevin Ryman to the Planning Commission for two-year reappointment terms that will begin. I'm committing this is from my member. And I apologize, August 9th, 2019, and will expire August 10th,

2021. Um that was approved by the Board of County Commissioners on Tuesday.

Jaimie Girardi

Okay, that wasn't I'm glad you told them that too, but

Denise

additionally

Jaimie Girardi

yes, I was referring to the appeal.

Denise

Oh the appeal, I apologize. Okay, well thank you. So um yes, uh as you may have recalled, um in February February twenty-first of twenty nineteen, the Planning Commission denied on a vote on a three-two vote a special exception for a baseball and softball school, private school, in an Agricultural Residential District. That item was heard on appeal on Tuesday by the Board

of County Commissioners and the Board of County Commissioners overturned staff's I mean so I'm I apologize overturned the Planning Planning Commission's decision and uh granted the appeal uh with some modifications to three conditions. Uh they struck out condition four which required the applicant to improve hadlock drive. And also they struck out condition number 10, which required the applicant to obtain building permits. In addition, uh they

modified condition number three. Which basically extended the hours of operation. Originally the applicant had requested from 3 PM to 8.30 PM, Monday through Saturday, I believe, and it was changed to 9 a.m. to 8.30 P.M. So that's what occurred on Tuesday on the Ryan Pryor and Elizabeth Pryor appeal.

Charles GreyChair

So that blew us out of the water on that one.

Michael J. Cox

And they made the residents there very happy. Um by by eliminating all those conditions.

Jaimie Girardi

I just thought you should know what you should know when you've been overturned. So that's

Charles GreyChair

Yeah. That's what we're here for.

Michael J. Cox

You know, I I it it would be nice to know, um, you know, as these things go down the pike w what ultimately is the happens to all these things. I mean, even the ones that I assume you're not going to be able to do and you know, I mean they they may they may disagree with us and

Jaimie Girardi

Well I think Denise could probably report back to you the ones where they've gone against your recommendation. Either your approval but for her to have to report back on every single consent item would be a little burdensome. I mean because you're well I get that. You approved twelve items today on consent that uh they're probably just gonna stay on consent in front of the board. So but I wasn't referring to those. You should probably could report back to you at any time the board goes against your recommendation or your decision so that you're aware of that. I'll be happy

Denise

to do that. I'll no I'll be happy to do that. Do you want that in an actual written report or would you is it okay for me to verbalize it as I did

What's the pleasure

Michael J. Cox

of the Planet Commissioner Oakley for you, it's more verbally.

Jaimie Girardi

We don't get that many where you where the board does something differently than what you did. So the it there probably wouldn't be more than one every meeting where that happens.

Denise

Yes.

Jaimie Girardi

If that.

Michael J. Cox

And uh another question on the reappointments. Um I'm certainly glad that Kevin Chucker reappointed, but what was the process uh of that?

Denise

Um the process for the reappointment um was I spoke to each individual commissioner separately and asked if they had any reservations on the reappointments and um there was a no. In the future I have been directed for the future reappointments to actually open up the application for the Planning Commission. So basically state the Planning Commission is looking for members and have a pool of folks coming in together with the potential

future reappointments and get the board's buy in collectively. as to um whether they want to move forward with a reappointment.

Michael J. Cox

So who d who directed you to do that?

Denise

Um the our county administrator.

Michael J. Cox

So why wasn't that done in this case?

Denise

I believe because the reappointment was um it's very a very short time frame, I believe. But I that was that's just my thinking. Ooh.

Charles GreyChair

Okay.
