Community Development Director Robert Keating reviewed the Comprehensive Plan <br />amendment process, advising that this is the first public hearing before the Board of County <br />Commissioners on this amendment request. If the Board approves the transmittal of this <br />application to the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) in Tallahassee for their 60 -day <br />review, a second and final public hearing will be scheduled to consider any comments made <br />by the DCA and whether to adopt an ordinance amending the Comprehensive Plan. If the <br />Board denies the transmittal of an application to the DCA, the application process will come <br />to an end. <br />Director Keating noted that there is a sign -in sheet for anyone wishing to speak to this <br />matter. The names and addresses will be furnished to the Department of Community Affairs <br />so they can notify the speaker of any further action on the matter. He then proceeded with <br />his PowerPoint presentation (COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH THE BACKUP FOR <br />TODAY'S MEETING). Staff believes this request is inconsistent with the urban service <br />area policy adopted last October with reference to the Clontz property when the "T" Land <br />Use Designation was initiated. This property almost meets the criteria for that designation <br />with the exception that the node which the property abuts is only 25% developed. At the <br />time of the initiation of that designation, one of the alternatives considered was to <br />redesignate a significant amount ofproperty to include this particular property and to expand <br />the urban service area. <br />The Chairman opened the public hearing and asked if anyone wished to be heard with <br />regard to this matter. <br />JULY 16, 2002 <br />ire <br />361 <br />-76- <br />
