A motion to accept and file? MOTION: MS. WONG: Move to accept and file. MS. PROVALENKO: Second. MS. NICHOLSON: Discussion? I actually had some discussion on this. Under item 2 on his suggestions. I thought these were all excellent suggestions and I think we might want to consider moving them into our draft report. First on is combine agriculture product to move this into one office. In other words building permits, water permits and make sure the various regulations are not in conflict with their demands. I’m not sure I totally understand this one. MS. O’HARA: Having worked in Planning, I’m kind of curious how that would work. I’m not really sure what he means. MR. ARMOUR: I think what he means is that when somebody wants to do something related to agriculture like build a new greenhouse, that they can go to one office and get the building permits for the greenhouse, get the water and whether it’s catchment or drill a well or hook up to the county water, all of that’s done at one time instead of jumping between different departments. 29
