MELROSE: I think I’d just like to, I mean like this is an approval. You’re now, you <br />have the authority to approve this. You’ve had the authority to approve special permits in <br />County law for many years. So to in this case you’re only sending a positive recommendation <br />subject to LUC because staff has a question about what IL is seems a little odd. It seems to me <br />the staff ought to find this definition about what IL is and the Commission needs to make its <br />decision based on the laws that it was granted. <br />HAYASHI: Mr. Chair, because there is this concern as to what the definition of <br />Important Ag Land is and whether this property has been identified as or not identified as <br />Important Ag Land by the State Land Use Commission, staff would suggest that the Commission <br />continue this hearing and give the staff the opportunity -. <br />WOODWARD: Would do what? <br />HAYASHI: Continue this hearing and give the staff the opportunity to contact the <br />State Land Use Commission and bring this matter back to the Planning Commission. <br />GONZALEZ: Okay, well, I’d like to address the -. <br />WOODWARD: Mr. Gonzalez. <br />GONZALEZ: The only reason why the Commission, a motion language was drafted was <br />to expeditiously handle this matter. Because the motion as drafted allows the staff to verify with <br />the Land Use Commission whether it’s applicable. And if it’s not, you don’t have to come back <br />again for another hearing, and we take more public testimony, and then there’s another vote on <br />whether to approve. So, I mean, if you think about it that way, -. <br />MELROSE: Okay, I got it, I got it. <br />WOODWARD: All right. <br />MELROSE: It’s subject to a communication not having to show back up in this <br />process; and we don’t necessarily have to go to the Land Use Commission to have this <br />discussion with them. <br />GONZALEZ: If they say they don’t have to ratify the action then it’s an approval from <br />the Commission. That’s why it’s drafted that way. <br />MELROSE: Okay. Thank you. <br />WOODWARD: Great. Are you good with that? <br />MELROSE: That’s good. Thanks. <br />15 <br />EXHIBIT A <br /> <br />
