Vice Chairman Davis agreed that the notice should be provided regardless of <br />whether the mine was in AG -1, AG -2, or AG -3. He then opined that there were a lot of places <br />where it is appropriate to place pits in AG -1, and that the permit process should be streamlined. <br />The Board continued to discuss whether or not mining in AG -1 should remain <br />under administrative, or go to special exception use; streamlining the permitting process; and the <br />importance of giving residents near a proposed mine sufficient and timely notice. <br />Chairman Bowden called for comments on Recommendation Nos. 34, 35 and 36; <br />no remarks were proffered by the Board or by the public. <br />Commissioner Flescher explained why he was opposed to the GPS monitoring <br />device as presented on Recommendation No. 37, "...impose mining permit conditions for <br />enhanced traffic law enforcement... and/or use of GPS monitoring." Under Recommendation No. <br />37.A., "...hiring full-time, FDOT certified deputy to provide continuous traffic law <br />enforcement...", he believed the Sheriff's office could provide that type of enforcement at less <br />expense than the FDOT. <br />Director Boling provided details of how the GPS could be used to track violations, <br />such as speeding, and noted that the idea had been included in the Recommendations for <br />consideration. <br />Further discussion ensued among the Board and staff regarding the use and cost of <br />the GPS. <br />14 <br />October 6, 2008 <br />
