Summary

County attorney said Suwannee Iron Works and the Capparellis filed for a special permit under zoning rules; the board agreed to notice a quasi-judicial hearing for Sept. 2 at 6:30 p.m. and to keep the agenda concise to avoid inconvenience to other attendees.

County Attorney Dan Morrison informed commissioners Aug. 19 that Suwannee Iron Works and the Capparellis have filed for a special permit under the county's zoning rules, prompting a quasi-judicial hearing at the board's next regular meeting. Morrison said the hearing is likely to be lengthy and asked staff to advertise it as a time-specific item at 6:30 p.m. on Sept. 2 so other board business could be conducted earlier in the evening. The board gave consensus to schedule the hearing for 6:30 p.m. and asked staff to keep the rest of the agenda compact that night to avoid requiring unrelated attendees to wait through a potentially long hearing. Morrison cautioned commissioners that lawyers are expected on each side and that quasi-judicial procedure will apply.
