Meeting Date:	07/10/2017
Issue: A Public Hearing Concerning the Review of an Ordinance Amending Chapter 2, Section 2-5.7, Final Plats
From:	Horace Jones
Department:	Development Services

RECOMMENDATION:

A Public Hearing Concerning the Review of an Ordinance Amending Chapter 2, Section 2-5.7, Final Plats

That the Board review and recommend to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) for adoption, an Ordinance to the Land Development Code (LDC) Chapter 2, Section 2-5.7, Final Plats.

BACKGROUND:

The County reviews and approves commercial and residential subdivisions that are forwarded to the Property Appraiser's office to update the parent parcel. As technology advances this has been a daunting task due to the current file format they receive. A digital file in the most up to date format will allow mapping section staff at the Property Appraiser's office to simply insert the lines and parcel shapes into their parcel layer and assign the attributes to geometric features. Providing a vectorized data file will decrease the time it takes to update the parcel layers.

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

No budgetary impact is anticipated by the adoption of this Ordinance.

LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS/SIGN-OFF:

The attached Ordinance has been reviewed and approved for legal sufficiency by Meredith D. Crawford, Assistant County Attorney. Any recommended legal comments are attached herein.

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.
