Hearing set on zone ordinance changes |
|
November 5, 2016 |
The Boundary County Commissioners will meet to
conduct a public hearing at 1:30 p.m. Monday,
December 5, in the Commissioners Office at the
County Courthouse, 6452 Kootenai Street, Bonners
Ferry to review Application 16-111, which
proposes changes to Land Use Ordinance 2015-2,
specifically addressing updates to: Section 2 -
Definitions, Section 7 - Conditional Use
Permits, Section 8 - Special Event Permits,
Section 10 - Standards for Specific Uses,
Section 11 - Subdivisions, Section 12 -
Variances, Section 13 - Mediation and Appeals,
Section 18 - Amendments and Section 20 - Parcel
Divisions.
The proposed updates are both typographical
(correcting formatting and spelling/numbering
errors), and substantive. (Substantive changes
are changes to actual content which add or
delete verbiage thus altering the potential
interpretation of an ordinance. An example might
be the addition to an ordinance section to state
'No dogs allowed'. Not hard to interpret, but if
the words did not exist before, the addition of
these words (or removal of them) would be
considered a substantive change.)
The deadline for written comment and material
for 16-111 is noon Monday, November 28. Written
comment may be mailed to: Boundary County
Commissioners, PO Box 419, Bonners Ferry, ID
83805, faxed to (208) 267-1205 or emailed to
planning@boundarycountyid.org.
Written comment will be accepted at public
hearing provided the material is read into the
record. There may be a five minute limit per
person on verbal testimony.
Further information is available on this
application at the Planning & Zoning Office,
Room 16 of the courthouse, and the application
is available for public review. Information is
also available by calling (208) 267-7212 or by
visiting the county website at
www.boundarycountyid.org/planning/.
Anyone requiring special accommodation due to
handicap or disability should contact the
planning office at least two days prior to the
hearing. |
