CARR SMITH: Go ahead. <br />DARROW: Commissioner Vitousek, you're referring to the automatic approval language? <br />VITOUSEK: Yeah. <br />DARROW: So, what happens is, if an applicant is amendable to a continuance, then this <br />automatic approval does not apply because they're being willing to continue the hearing beyond <br />the deadline from that point. This is a situation that has only occurred once in my career as a <br />planner, where an applicant was not willing to defer, and the Planning Commission could not <br />come to an agreement or a motion one way or another. There was' -clack of quorum for each vote <br />that was brought up and the time, the maximum timeframe had'come to that point. We had <br />additionally had received the written objection at that time,;andthe public had made a statement <br />that, "look a written objection had been submitted, doesn't that ehange the process?" And the <br />Council that we were getting at that time was exactly., 'What Tracie had --mentioned, is that a <br />written objection does not defer or change the time:process. Only a contested case. So they <br />clarified that the written objection was specificalty:to the submittal of a contested case - - -. But <br />again, back to your question, if an applicant is amenable to a continuance, tleri the application <br />can be continued, no problem. <br />VITOUSEK: And you don't think tliat'that needs to be clarif ed in this language in any way? <br />DARROW: I believe it is -vin the rule. I don't have'that hold on I"might have it with me right <br />here. I apologize for the''delay.j ' r <br />VITOUSEK: While"we"wait, bac'o'n' -'is cooked; }cookies are baked, discuss. [Jokingly] <br />i <br />i 1 _ <br />DARROW: Yeah,,I don't `see' it=here,-unfortunately, "but maybe if we can continue with <br />discuss ion`le„t.me .16'0k' for that;aiid then, cause there's, other issues regarding this bill that may be <br />talked,°abo.ut. I think J's ,talking. ` <br />CARR SMITH: Yeah, go ahead, J. <br />YOSHIMOTO:`°Jeff, are you looking at, or looking for 6-8? <br />DARROW: That would-be under 'special permits. This would be under 7. <br />YOSHIMOTO: Seven. Okay' <br />DARROW: Thank you. <br />CARR SMITH: So, you have cookies Mike? I want a cookie. [Jokingly] Does anyone else have <br />any comments? Max? Barbara? Nothing right now? Perry? Max, go for it. Go ahead. <br />NEWBERG: Just wanted to make mention that as the language goes into legalese, I get a little <br />bit lost. Maybe towards the end Mr. Vitousek has a good question there, but I guess under my <br />3 <br />EXHIBIT F <br />
