Community meetings provide an opportunity for rezoning and special use applicants to meet with community members and discuss a proposed rezoning and/or special use application in an informal setting that allows for open dialog. Community meetings occur outside the formal public hearing process and are encouraged to be held prior to application submission to the county so that the applicant can learn about community concerns and issues that may have bearing on their application.
The meeting also provides citizens an opportunity to learn about projects early in the rezoning or special use processes. To learn more about the meeting guidelines, please review the Meeting Guidelines (PDF).
