The Town Manager recommended a three to four month extension to deal with paperwork necessary to secure the building permit.

The Town Manager gave background advising that the change provides consistency in the Code and makes it easier for the public to understand the provisions.
Mr. MacNeill moved to find Ordinance No. 06-09 consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Objective 1, Policy 1.1, Future Land Use Element. Mr. Sullivan seconded. Motion carried unanimously.
B. Review of the Recreation and Open Space Element of the Comprehensive Plan with respect to Orlando Park (requested by Mr. Greer)
Mr. Greer brought up how the Comp Plan language was being interpreted by some residents to designate Orlando Park as a neighborhood park for those living south of SR 192.
The Town Planner advised that the binding language in the Comp Plan is found in the Goals, Policies and Objectives. Mr. Washburn also explained that the data and analysis can change over time.
Mr. Washburn said that the language concerning the park is correct and that the exclusivity argument has no validity. He indicated the plan could be changed up to two times a year but that it is a costly procedure.
The Town Manager advised that Comp Plan modifications are due in November 2007.
