not include the Cox justification letter. She was not comfortable <br />with this coming to the Board in a rush. It is a 300 -ft. tower and <br />she felt it is very important to the Life for Youth Ranch. <br />Chairman Adams felt we are moving too fast on this application and <br />stated that she could not vote for this as it stands. She <br />preferred to look at it on an overall basis. <br />Director Keating suggested, if the Board wanted staff to come <br />back with complete technical information, that we get a consultant <br />on board. <br />Chairman Adams didn't mind having a consultant on this matter, <br />but..... <br />Attorney Barkett interjected that they have gone the extra <br />mile with this application. They were here last year with an <br />application for a tower near the industrial park and after concerns <br />were raised about microwaves, staff suggested they look for a <br />location further south. They resubmitted their application and <br />they are entitled to be judged by the rules already in place. <br />Attorney Barkett emphasized that it would be unfair and unjust to <br />delay this application; he believed it also would be illegal. <br />Commissioner Macht doubted it would be illegal because the <br />Board could make a case for safety. <br />Chairman Adams repeated her concern about the proliferation of <br />towers being built in this county. <br />Chairman Adams reopened the Public Hearing. <br />Mr. Abernathy pointed out that the zoning there is kind of <br />vague. He wondered why this is not consistent with the proposed <br />zoning if it is consistent with the present zoning. <br />Director Boling explained that it is a matter of looking at <br />future residents because eventually there will be more people <br />residing on property to the north of this site. <br />Commissioner Bird felt it would take quite a lot of <br />justification to rezone that property because it would have to go <br />along with a Comp Plan Land Use amendment. <br />It was determined that no others wished to be heard in this <br />matter, and Chairman Adams closed the Public Hearing. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Chairman Adams, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Eggert, to table this application for <br />90 days. <br />31 <br />OCTOBER 15, 1996 <br />Boos 99 PA.cE 429 <br />I <br />
