The Board of Realtors asked the Board to consider <br />accepting applications on a quarterly basis. At the meeting, <br />the Board briefly discussed accepting applications twice a <br />year, possibly with conditions. <br />On October 18, 1984, the Planning and Zoning Commission <br />considered four alternatives that the staff had prepared <br />concerning the number of times per year the County would accept <br />applications to amend the Comprehensive Plan. At that time the <br />Commission discussed a fifth alternative which would be <br />accepting applications twice a year, in January and July, but <br />applications submitted in July would not necessarily be heard <br />by the Commission immediately. Under this alternative, if an <br />application was received in July and required substantial staff <br />analysis, additional time would be allowed for this analysis. <br />On November 19, 1984, the Planning & Zoning Commission voted <br />5 -to -0 to recommend alternative #3, which states that the <br />County will accept applications twice a year in January and <br />July. <br />ALTERNATIVES & ANALYSIS <br />The Planning Department prepared four alternatives for <br />accepting Comprehensive Plan amendment applications as follows: <br />1) No change in the County's present policy of <br />accepting applications once a year; <br />39 <br />8 0 0 r 59 PACE191 <br />J <br />
