So do you want to give a uh start up for our meeting?

Yes, sir, Mr.

Chairman.

Thank you, and uh welcome everyone.

Mr.

Chairman, we'll begin by going over our public hearing guidelines.

And uh the chairman for our citizens with us here today.

The chairman will go over more specific instructions as we start reviewing the various cases.

And when a public hearing is called and the chairman invites you to the podium, citizens who are signed up to speak, you'll speak at the podium in the center of the room, right in front of the chairman.

And what we ask is to please speak directly into the microphone.

This meeting is recorded, it is also live streaming on the internet via via via YouTube live as well as other social media platforms.

And so please speak directly into the microphone so we can be you can be heard clearly, but also if we have to prepare a transcript of this meeting, that we have everyone's comments very clearly.

And also the chairman will when uh the chairman will give if you're representing a group, the chairman may grant you five minutes in lieu of the normal three minutes to speak.

If you are speaking on behalf of a group, please identify that with the chairman.

But otherwise, you'll have three minutes to speak.

When the county staff member presenter is presenting each case, and once the public hearing begins, they will put a timer that you'll see on screen after the end of either three or five minutes, it will sound.

You will see two different types of cases before you today.

The factors on screen are for zoning changes, and you see there are 11 factors, and the staff member presenting the zoning change will explain each of those factors.

Understand the difference between a zoning consideration and a subdivision, the zoning, the uh the zoning changes and zoning cases apply to these criteria.

The staff will view it in greater detail.

When we get to the portion of the meeting where we are discussing subdivisions, subdivisions are objective.

If the subdivision meets the requirements of the county regulations, as you see on screen, the excerpt from a legal case, the planning commission is obligated to approve the subdivision.

This per the purpose of this meeting is to identify are there any deficiencies with an application.

So with that, Mr.

Chairman, I will turn it back over to you to begin cases.

Okay.

We'll start with what we call our consent agenda items.

These are items that if no one in the public says so to at I'm thinking getting ready to read the list, and when I call it out, if no one is here to speak an objection to it, then it'll be we'll group them all together in the planning commission will approve them all at one time.

So just be clear when I call it out.
