November 9, 2025 at 8:24 am in reply to: Non-disturbance buffer / preservation of existing vegetation #6472
Commissioner Fox,
I included this in my considerations for the UDO. Our stormwater ordinance has penalties for non-compliance that could be used as a reference point for developing a similar policy for the non-compliance of a non-disturbance buffer.
Thank you, Commissioners Russell and Fox.
I would like to respectfully ask for consideration of a postponement and request that a work shop be organized for Commission with County Staff.
Thank you, Commissioner Jay.
Commissioners Hill, Jay, and Fox,
Thank you for bringing proposed Rules amendments before the Rules Committee . As a result, the Rules Committee voted to bring your recommendations before Commission for consideration. Kindly be prepared to present and answer any questions regarding your proposed agenda items 41, 42, and 43 accordingly.
Thanks very much.
Noted.
yes
Additional considerations:
-ROW management and best practices could be a request for the UDO. Ultimately it is the Mayor’s decision but if we move forward to include fees/fines, we need to create a utility stakeholders group asap because addressing and/or adding utility fees was not included in the scope of work.
Thank you, Commissioner Jay, for your work on this initiative.
I offer the following for the ongoing discussion:
1. In consultation with EPW, I think that the authority should hold permits if utilities are uncooperative, especially related to road project delays and unresolved safety issues.
2. EPW has a meeting next week to discuss the budgetary scope for a utility ordinance/ pro’s and con’s.
3. It’s my opinion that we do not need a resolution to request the leadership team ask the consultant to consider the inclusion of a utility ordinance as part of the UDO. Any commissioner can submit considerations to the team or the consultant at any time.Thank you, Commissioner Russell.
I will make sure that your comments are distributed to the members of the Rules Committee for review and possible discussion.
Madam Chair,
Will you please separate items A and B for individual votes under Agenda Section J. Drives and Roads Agenda item 31.?
Very helpful, Madam Chair.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
This is very helpful. In addition, if Commissioners do have questions for Department Staff, it is the responsibility of the Commissioner to reach out to the Staff member ahead of time and request that they be present at the Agenda Review to answer those questions. As you mentioned, the Agenda Review is when discussion regarding agenda items should occur so that Commissioners feel well informed and ready to vote at the regular business meeting.
Commissioner Fox,
Have you provided these sources to the Mayor’s staff and department heads and discussed?
To clarify, the grant funding in question has already been appropriated. I encourage all Commissioners to have individual discussions with the Mayor’s staff and county departments to further discuss.
Thank you, Madam Chair.
