CONSIDERATIONS: This 7-member quasi-judicial committee was created by authority of Chapter 67-1246,
Laws of FL. Ordinance 13-50 amended Ordinance 09-29, thus changing membership to represent five planning
commissioners selected by commission district and two members with environmental expertise. The CCPC assists
in the formulation and review of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan, Land Development Code, and amendments to
both, and then submits their recommendations to the Board for final decision. Members are required to file a Form

"Appointment. The Planning Commission shall be composed of 7 members to be appointed by the BCC, together
with the representative of the school district. Of these seven members, there shall be one member from each of
the five County Commission Districts, and two at -large environmental members. Planning Commission
Candidates for the five County Commission District seats must be nominated by the Commissioner of the
District in which the candidate resides for both initial and subsequent terms and receive a simple majority vote of
the Board of County Commissioners. The two at large members can be nominated by any Commissioner, but

Commissioner McDaniel has requested that this appointment be on the Board's first meeting of September. I
intend to bring the remaining two seats to the Board on the second meeting of September.

developers.
