Applicants/Agents are expected to be present to represent their items when they come up on the agenda. In the absence of

Development Services at (530) 538-6571 at least 72 hours prior to the hearing. Conduct of Public Hearings – the public is encouraged to participate in the hearing process. An agenda item is first introduced
by the Zoning Administrator and then presented by a staff member. The Administrator then opens the public hearing and provides an opportunity for the proponent to address the item. Following the proponents statement, if any, the Zoning Administrator will
invite any other interested party in support of the item to address the matter. Following the testimony of the proponent and
supporters, opponents are given an opportunity to present testimony regarding the item. After the opponents have completed
testifying, the proponent is given time to offer rebuttal. At the conclusion of testimony, the Administrator will close the hearing.
In the interest of everyone concerned, we request that you do not repeat what has already been discussed by someone prior to
your turn. After a speaker has presented his/her views, if you are in agreement and wish to go on record, state your name and
address and acknowledge your agreement with the speaker. This will enter your name into the record. Please limit presentations
to a maximum of 3 minutes or other time limit as determined by the Zoning Administrator so that all interested parties will have
opportunity to speak. Following your presentation, please print your name and address on the speaker’s sheet, in order to obtain
correct spelling and maintain accurate records.
Any person or persons dissatisfied with a Zoning Administrator’s decision may appeal that decision to the Planning Commission
within 10 calendar days along with a fee of $400 filed with Development Services (unless otherwise noted in the agenda item).
