Commissioner Tuner

asked if 4 review average.

Mr. Osborne

Commissioner Turner

so that would cause someone to go over the timeline.

Commissioner DeAnda

asked if there is a limit for the extensions?

Mr. Osborne

stated no, but this is for a new CUP. Tony Celeste representing the applicant, stated they have had some setbacks they are in the final stages and are just subject to one more review of public works. They do all agree to the conditions of approval. Public comment opened at 6:17 pm Debra Strickland stated she hopes they extend this, it is a large endeavor for the company.

Commissioner Lee

asked staff if the purpose of this ZC is so the property can then be exchanged with the Floyds.

Mrs. Medici

stated yes, Community Facilities is essentially for County or Town owned properties. The conforming ZC does allow for other uses.

Commissioner Koenig

stated the first back up said to expand the Nye County Animal Shelter, then it was changed to future expansion needs for the county.

Mrs. Medici

stated that is a better suited question to the applicant.

Commissioner Lee

asked who to ask if they have read and understood the conditions of approval. Debra Strickland stated what they are hoping for is to obtain the 10 acres that adjoin the property and others, EMS and the Animal Shelter. They don’t know what they will do with the property they will acquire in the exchange. The immediate need is an impound yard, we currently have code compliance on the eye property for the vehicles that aren’t fenced and will be sold and auctioned off.

Commissioner Lee

asked the applicant if they have read, understood and agree to the conditions of approval. Is that to be answered by the County or the Floyds.

Mrs. Strickland

stated she talked with Nick Moore stated that she would be attending the meeting to represent both parties and he stated they have no concerns on the conditions as outlined.

Commissioner Hayden

asked Mrs. Strickland what the process is, what the value of the land is, what is the timeframe they are looking for. Staff did state it was submitted to the legal department.

Mrs. Strickland

stated they started with a letter of intent and approved by the BOCC to present to the family. Once it was considered they had the county properties appraised and gave them the opportunity to exchange 6 different properties. They determined what properties they were interested in. The appraisals expired, and the Calvada properties were reappraised, and the Floyd Family paid for their own appraisal, and it was determined it was an equal value. The family would like the zone changed before purchase, and they are obtaining a soil analysis.

Commissioner Turner

asked if there is a precedence for zone change without building plans? For county use or all use.

Mrs. Medici

stated that is for all use. They want to make sure everything conforms with the Masterplan.

Commissioner Turner

asked if we have approved any zone changes without any building plans. Page 3 of 4
