1. Meeting called to order at 4: 12 P.M. by Chairman Simpson.
2 . Minutes of 23 September 1991 were approved. Minutes of 30
September 1991 were tabled until a time later in the meeting.
Mr. Simpson conveyed that he thought that Mr. Addison had a
correction and the Chair would like to await Mr. Addison's
arrival before taking action. The Board concurred.
3 . Majorie Student, Assistant County Attorney, presented an
overview of the County' s legal position on the DCA and the
inability of the County to meet all of the stipulated deadlines
in the Conservation and Coastal Management Element (CCME) of the
Growth Management Plan. A discussion followed.
4 . Based on the above discussion David Land suggested that a
letter be sent to the BCC requesting that BCC staff provide a
schedule for completing the mandates in the CCME under the
following conditions: (1) utilizing current in-house resources;
(2) having access to unlimited resources. The EPTAB recommended
that the letter also suggest that the County meet with DCA to
gather information on County options and liabilities in light of
the potential lawsuit which may be brought against the County by
the DCA. Mike Saadeh moved that the letter be forwarded to the
BCC. The motion was seconded by Mike Davis. During further
discussion, Mr. Beardsley proposed an amendment to the original
motion. The amendment did not receive a second and the original
motion passed by a vote of 9-1 with Mr. Beardsley dissenting.
5. Mike Davis brought up the issue of the frequency of the EPTAB
meetings. He stated that he was having trouble balancing all of
his responsibilities. Other members agreed that the frequency
was having a deleterious effect on their operations also. Glenn
Simpson stated that after the BCC meeting of 8 October 1991, the
land acquisition issue should be clearer and he hoped that the
frequency of meetings could be lessened.
