“I don't understand your motion. I don't understand. You're either voting yes to approve it or no to decline it, and if you're voting yes to approve it, and then you have recommendations within your approval, your recommendations within your approval are 0 to 180? Is that what I'm understanding?”

“I'd like to make a motion that we approve DPA 2 0 2 6 0 0 0 0 6 data center opportunities zone overlay district with staff recommendations. And instead of 90 days, make it 120 days and keep the part in about 500 feet away from homes structures and schools structures, 500 feet. Can I get a second on that?”

“Okay, Vice Chair Justice. Thank you. So I think you had a slide that, I think it was the next slide after this one, and I don't know if you can blow these back up. They're a little bit hard to see. Thank you. So am I right in understanding, I'm just trying to figure out timelines how these tracks. So if you meet certain criteria, you're in an area where by right, you're not coming to the planning commission, you're not going to the borders of county supervisors for approval. Those data centers are taking a track to go directly towards zoning approval and site plan, correct? Correct. And then…”

“Okay. So the determination of those two separate tracks, what determines which track they go on? Is it whether or not they're looking for changes?”

“My concern is coming in on the timeline. That's what I'm trying to figure out because the applicant having to have something submitted within 90 days is one thing, but you've got two separate parties here that have to be involved because you're saying it has to be accepted by the county within the 90 days as well. So that's putting County staff on a timeline as well. Is that normal for projects? Is that, I mean, do we, I mean, we have timelines that we'd like to see, right. And I'm sure there's, uh, property owners and applicants that, uh, you see what I'm trying to figure out is what burden…”

“Can I ask one more question? So let's say theoretically somebody comes in a property owner in the County and they move forward with a data center project and they want to see how it goes. So they have to work through titling. They have to work through deeds. You know, they're, they're going through this whole process and they submit the plan. Is there a, I guess I'm concerned about the timelines. Let's say that they get everything submitted and they're on track, but day 85, they come back with a denial or there's something that wasn't quite right that staff wants them to work on. They have…”

“I'm saying if it wasn't QC accepted. You're saying QC accepted, has somebody looked it over?”

“Thank you. So one question is, are there any other time frames in this document elsewhere other than the 90-day?”

“You said by date of ordinance, so that would be September when it goes to the board.”

“Okay. And then my next question, I guess this one's a little bit tricky because it's a recommendation or a, what if, if it can be done between now and the board, uh, I think we've all talked about the community involvement. You've got seven districts. Each of those districts probably has, at least to my knowledge, has a civic association. Is there any way that the planning office could work with those civic associations and host a meeting or work with the civic associations and do like an online presentation one evening to where, you know, the civic groups, they have their emails or…”

“along with the community, that's, that's where my hesitation and concerns coming from. Uh, if you're making notes for the board, not only is it the communication aspect and as commissioner Ross brought up, I understand that this discussion started in March. Um, but being involved in real estate transactions, contracts, deed research, proffer research. I mean, there's a significant amount of time that go into those items and coming up with agreements. And what I don't want to see is this comes out and then there's this big rush to just let's throw it at the wall and see what sticks kind of…”

“Your thoughts go with the industry. I'm a huge proponent of property rights, and I look at property owners, and I do, I look at the process and I think about, you just said it, somebody might have thought that they had a longer time horizon to make this decision. They thought they could hold out a little bit longer. And now this is coming down the pipe and I don't think it's fair to put somebody in a position where they're now having to negotiate and review contracts with an industry that's got a substantial amount of money, have time to work with their legal representation to get the right…”

“your justice the original motion because we already passed it's the original motion that includes the amendment I thought we just voted on the amended motion right now we're voting on the main motion which now includes the friendly emotion okay so we just voted to amend and now we've got the motion plus the amendment That's my understanding. Somebody can correct me.”
