Procedure for Public Participation at
Planning and Zoning Board of Appeals
Public Hearings
The public is invited to speak on items scheduled for Public Hearings, after receiving
recognition by the Chairman.
When addressing the Board, please speak at the lectern located in the front of the room.
State your name and address, and purpose for appearing.
Generally speaking, the sequence of presentation after introduction of the item by
the board and staff will be:
- Presentation by the applicant/appellant or his/her agent/representative.
- Questions by the Board to the applicant.
- Comments by interested neighbors/citizens.
- Additional comments by the applicant/appellant or his/her representative,
Board and staff, neighbors and citizens.
Any item that can be presented within ten (10) minutes or less, or that may generate
a large amount of citizen interest, may be taken out of its position on the agenda
at the discretion of the board.
Following the Public Hearing there will be a short recess. The Board will reconvene
to discuss and vote upon the applications presented that evening. The applicant/appellant
or his/her representative and neighbors and citizens may observe the decision
session, but not comment or participate.
In most instances decisions will be rendered by the Board the same evening. These
decisions become effective on the rendition date, twelve (12) days following the
Public Hearing. For a period of fifteen (15) days following the rendition date,
the Board's decision may be appealed to the Superior Court. No building permit
associated with the appeal may be filed until this court appeal period has
lapsed (i.e. a total of twenty-seven (27) calendar days after the date of the
closure of the public hearing on the particular appeal).
