Items that generate a large turnout of interested citizens at a Commission meeting may be heard early in the meeting as an accommodation to the public.

CONSENT AGENDA ITEMS:

Consent Agenda Items as identified with a symbol (þ) on the agenda are regular items which are recommended for approval or continuance by staff with the applicant's consent concerning conditions of approval, when the applicant has signed any required project revision statement and when no member of the Commission or public indicates a desire to comment or ask questions about the item. Consent items, regardless of their agenda assigned number will be acted upon by the Commission in one motion at the beginning of the meeting.

Applicants having items listed on the Consent Agenda need not speak unless they disagree with the staff recommendation or wish to comment. Items removed from the Consent Agenda, will be heard in the numerical order listed on the agenda.

If you arrive after the meeting has started and have any question concerning whether or not an agenda item has already been heard by the Commission, please check with the Secretary of the Commission.
