299 The public hearing for Petition 94-07 was held on December 19, 1994. The Board voted at the conclusion of the public hearing to defer action on the Petition until this date. Mr. Hartsell reported that Mr. Bill Graham, attorney representing residents of the area, had informed him that afternoon of discussions with Mr. Conner relative to efforts to mediate and come up with a solution to this matter voluntarily. However, in order to delay a determination of the matter, Mr. Hartsell advised it would be necessary for the applicant and the counsel for the residents to agree to the delay. Mr. Hartsell then asked Mr. Conner, who was in the audience, if he agreed that it was satisfactory to him to defer this matter until the second meeting in February. Mr. Max Conner, petitioner, reported that Mr. Graham had contacted him on this date, stating it would be in the best interest for the community and Mr. Conner to defer the matter. He stated he had indicated his willingness to work with Mr. Graham in any way he could. Upon further questioning by Mr. Hartsell, Mr. Conner commented that in his opinion he would like an answer tonight but would agree to wait 30 days if the delay were needed. The Board agreed to defer Petition 94-07 until later in the meeting in order for Mr. Conner and Mr. Graham to discuss the matter further. The Board then proceeded with other items on the agenda. Approval of Travel for Board Members to Attend the NACo Legislative Conference in Washington, D, C, in March, 1995 Consideration of travel to the National Association of Counties (NACo) 1995 Legislative Conference was deferred on January 3 pending cost information. The travel cost per individual was estimated at $1,297.04 for the period Friday through Tuesday. There was lengthy discussion both for and against travel to the 1995 conference, including the knowledge to be gained, the cost of travel, and the advantages of waiting until 1996 to allow Congress an opportunity to implement its new programs. UPON MOTION of commissioner Olio-Mills, seconded by Commissioner Fennel with Commissioners Olio-Mills, Fennel and Niblock and Chairman Barnhart voting for and Commissioner Casper voting against, the Board voted to send no one to the NACo 1995 Legislative Conference. The motion by Commissioner Casper to amend the motion by Commissioner Olio- Mills to send anyone available or willing to put forth the effort to the NACo Legislative Conference died for lack of a second. No action was taken on the proposal by Commissioner Olio-Mills to freeze travel for Board members for the remainder of the fiscal year.
