December 1, 2008 (Work Session) Page 1074 Zoning Board had initially been given the rezoning packages that followed the adoption of the Central Area Plan in September; the Board had another discussion regarding the plan at their October meeting, and subsequently had smaller group meetings with County staff to get a better understanding of plan recommendations as it relates to the rezoning; in November, the Planning and Zoning Board voted 6 to 3 in favor of the rezoning; because the vote was less than a 75 percent majority, the plan will come back before the Board of Commissioners; this item will need to be brought to the Board in January so that staff members can send out a mass mailing to the public; the hearing will be a de novo hearing to be held at the January 20, 2009 regular meeting; etc. Commissioner Carruth asked about an email he sent to Mr. Marshall with questions regarding zoning classifications. Chairman White suggested that Mr. Marshall have answers to all questions posed by the Board at the January Work Session.

Mr. Marshall reported the meeting minutes will be provided upon adoption.
