DANE COUNTY CODE OF ORDINANCES(DCCO)AMENDMENT#67-CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT APPEALS:MOTION by Fagan/Schwenn to recommend to Dane County to NOT change the CUP appeal process.Discussion:Dane County Planning and Development Department proposes that the appeal process for a CUP be changed to streamline the process.Rather than the full County Board hearing the appeal,the appeal would be heard by the DC Board of Adjustment made up of five members.The TB agreed that 5 people vs.37 people would be a streamlined approach,but question whether some of the CUP decisions should be less cumbersome.Maybe cumbersome is good.The following are reasons to retain the full County Board as the deliberative body in CUP appeals: *A 5 member review board lowers the bar from a 37 member review board;which isn't good. *The full County Board would include a representative from all areas of the County and the 5 member board could not just by the nature of 5 members only. *Everyone has biases.With 37 members,there are plenty of biases,more than in a 5 member board.Motion to deny the proposed amendment carried 3-0. BILLS:MOTION by Schwenn/Eloranta to pay the bills.Motion to pay the bills carried 3-0. ADJOURN:MOTION by Schwenn/Eloranta to adjourn.Motion carried 3-0. Respectfully submitted,Vicki Anderson,Town Clerk
