® L~,oos 13 562 by the Planning Board. Commissioner Reives asked if a request to extend a carnival longer than ten days was made, what the proper procedure would be. Mr. Barefoot stated that a public hearing would have to be held for the special use. Commissioner Reives stated that this process would involve too much time. Mr. Barefoot stated that the wording could be changed to reflect that approval from the Planning Board would need to be obtained for any need beyond ten days. Commissioner Hall stated that the amendment could reflect that for additional time, the Planning Director could be authorized by the Planning Board to issue a permit to extend the time in ten day increments. Ms. Dickerson stated that a time limit should be specified and suggested renewal for an additional ten day period. Commissioner Hall suggested changing the proposed amendment to allow renewing the special use permit in ten day periods. Mr. Barefoot stated that making a request for a special use permit is not a cumbersome procedure. Mr. Barefoot stated that if some limitations are not set, the County will not have the control that it needs in this situation. Chairman Stafford stated that the Board wants to be able to serve the public and not to be restrictive. He stated that the Board of Commissioners would probably consider allowing Mr. Barefoot authority to consider an additional ten day period and any subsequent periods would have to be reviewed by the Planning Board. Chairman Stafford directed the County Attorney to arrange the wording for the amendment so that the Board may take action later during the meeting. The Chairman opened the floor to all persons wishing to speak in favor of or in opposition to the request. There being no one present to speak, Commissioner Wicker moved that the public hearing be closed. Commissioner Cox seconded the motion, and upon a vote, the results were as follows: Aye: Cox, Hall, Matthews, Paschal, Reives, Stafford, and Wicker Nay: None The Chairman ruled the motion adopted unanimously.
