BACKGROUND INFORMATION

 

Previous Commission action/date:  December 18, 2018, BCC Regular Meeting

 

Background:  On December 18, 2018, the Baldwin County Commission voted to return Case No. Z-18049, Case No. Z-18051 and Case No. Z-18052 to the Planning Commission for additional consideration and recommendations so that zoning designations which were more restrictive than those originally requested could be considered.

 

Since public hearings were opened on each of these cases, the County Commission must act on the cases within 60 days of the original public hearing date of December 18, 2018. Given scheduling and advertising requirements, the next available Planning Commission meeting would be February 7, 2019. The next County Commission public hearing, however, would be February 19, 2019, which falls outside the required 60-day time frame for final action. As a result, the Planning and Zoning staff respectfully requests the following actions:

 

1.                     Allow the applicants for Case No. Z-18049, Case No. Z-18051 and Case No. Z-18052 to withdraw the current applications.

2.                     Waive the application fees for these respective applicants in order to allow new applications, which would be consistent with the County Commission actions taken on December 18, 2018, to be submitted.
