"The County Commission shall at least fifteen (15) days <br />prior to the public hearing for rezoning, excluding <br />Sundays and legal holidays, publish notice of intent to <br />consider the rezoning in+a newspaper of general circu- <br />lation within the county." <br />This established rezoning procedure has worked well to provide <br />sufficient notice and time to all parties wishing to give testi- <br />mony at a public hearing. The complexity of the issues presented <br />in the Audubon Society's appeal make a minimum 15 day notice, <br />prior to the public hearing an equitable and appropriate time <br />frame for scheduling. <br />B) Set a hearing date prior -to -February 3, 1982. Selection -of <br />this alternative will schedule the appeal for January 20, 1982 <br />and will provide for notice lest than the fifteen (15) days <br />requirement established under the rezoning procedures. <br />RECOlIZIENDATION : <br />Staff recommends Alternative A, that the public hearing date be <br />set for February 3, 1982 and that at least fifteen (15) days notice, <br />of hearing be established as prescribed in Section 27 of the County <br />Code of Ordinances. <br />P " A"I'T ISLANID AUDUBON SOCIETY <br />P. 0.
