V. Ms. Johnson noted she would like the Board to consider adding that item to the  
monitor list. Discussion ensued regarding the Tentative Appropriations Requests listed  
in the presentation. Direction from the Board was for staff to focus on water quality  
projects relating to infrastructure, with Lake Jesup being a very important piece of the  
conversation, and for staff to stay focused. Commissioner Constantine noted for the  
record that he does not think they should have the public records exemption on the  
County's priority list.  
Grey Wilson and Katrina Shadix spoke in support. Public Comment Forms were  
received and filed.  
26.  
Land Development Code Update - Staff briefing to re-review specific  
topics for proposed amendments to the Land Development Code as well  
as provide a full copy of the proposed amendments for the Board’s review  
and comment. (Rebecca Hammock, Development Services Director)  
Ms. Hammock; Jeff Hopper, Planning and Development; and Sara Hartung, Natural  
Resource Officer, addressed the Board to provide the LDC Update. Acting County  
Attorney Paul Chipok discussed the process to update the County's Land Development  
Code. Mr. Chipok advised the County Attorney's Office has been monitoring the  
language, and their job is to make sure the policy direction is within the four corners of  
the page. Regarding 'Accessory Structures' there was consensus of the Board for lot  
size by impervious area, and direct staff to provide the Board with more information  
after figuring out what the process is currently and whether or not they need to change  
the process in terms of the anecdotal comments that were made about this particular  
topic. As far as the 600-square-foot limitation by size or impervious area, the Board  
determined it needs to be some sort of hybrid. Regarding 'Kennels' there was  
consensus of the Board to eliminate the 501c3 exemption from the proposed definition,  
possibly add exemptions specifically for fostering, and they are not in favor of vesting.  
Regarding 'Wetlands as Open Space' the Board determined the item needs more work,  
and they would like more information from staff. Regarding 'Historic Trees' and  
'Backyard Chickens' there was consensus of the Board to move forward as presented.
