Summary of Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan <br />While Policy 14.3 is particularly applicable to this request, other Comprehensive Plan policies and <br />objectives also have relevance. For that reason, staff evaluated the subject request for consistency <br />with all applicable plan policies and objectives. Based upon that analysis, staff determined that the <br />proposed amendments are consistent with the County's Comprehensive Plan. <br />CONCLUSION <br />Staff's position is that updating the county's comprehensive plan, as proposed, is warranted based <br />on changes in circumstances and to ensure that the county's comprehensive plan remains current <br />and accurate. With the possible exception of future state mandates, the proposed amendments, <br />together with other county -initiated amendments adopted over the last several years, will result in <br />an up-to-date plan that should not need further element by element updating until the County <br />conducts a thorough evaluation and appraisal process beginning in 2022/23. <br />RECOMMENDATION: <br />Based on the analysis performed, staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission recommend that <br />the Board of County Commissioners: <br />1. Adopt the attached resolution for transmittal of the proposed comprehensive plan text <br />amendment to the state and regional review agencies, and <br />2. Announce its intention to hold and advertise a final public hearing at the adoption stage of the <br />plan amendment process (tentatively planned for September or October 2019). <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />1.
