| PERSONNEL: |
| No additional personnel are required for implementation of this Ordinance. |
| POLICY/REQUIREMENT FOR BOARD ACTION: |
| The proposed Ordinance is consistent with the Board’s goal “to increase citizen involvement in, access to, and approval of, County government activities.” |
| IMPLEMENTATION/COORDINATION: |
This Ordinance, amending the LDC, will be filed with the Department of State following adoption by the board.
Implementation of this Ordinance will consist of an amendment to the LDC and distribution of a copy of the adopted Ordinance to interested citizens and staff.
The proposed Ordinance was prepared by the Development Services Department, in cooperation with the County Attorney’s Office and all interested citizens. The Development Services Department will ensure proper advertisement. |
