Responding to Commissioner O'Bryan's query, Director Keating stated that the <br />Comprehensive Plan Amendments would not affect the evacuation times or policies. He noted <br />that in a Category 1 storm, the recommendation would be for the entire Barrier Island to be <br />evacuated. <br />Commissioner O'Bryan, although he understood that the County must comply <br />with the State's revised definition of CHHA, remarked that it made no sense to him to remove <br />the Barrier Island from the CHHA. <br />The Vice Chairman opened the Public Hearing. <br />Bob Johnson, Coral Wind Subdivision, inquired whether the Comprehensive <br />Plan Amendment would affect the flood insurance requirements of the Barrier Island property <br />owners. <br />Director Keating advised that the Amendment does not change the flood hazard <br />areas in the National Flood Insurance Program, and would not affect the insurance policies or <br />the flood hazard areas. <br />There were no additional speakers and the Vice Chairman closed the Public <br />Hearing. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Solari, SECONDED by <br />Vice Chairman Flescher, by a 3-1 vote (Commissioner <br />Wheeler opposed, Chairman Davis absent), the Board <br />unanimously adopted Ordinance No. 2009-004, <br />amending the future Land Use Element and the Coastal <br />Management Element of the Comprehensive Plan by <br />18 <br />April 7, 2009 <br />
