Abstract
Introduction & Background: The purpose of the Planning Board is to advise the County Board of Commissioners on planning, zoning, and subdivision issues. Specific powers and duties include monitoring trends related to land use, proposing needed amendments to the land use plan, establishing development principles and guidelines; proposing ordinances for orderly development in accordance with the land use plan; determining whether proposed developments conform to the land use plan and development principles; and keeping the Board of Commissioners and the public informed on planning issues and reasons for board recommendations.

Discussion & Analysis: Members are appointed by the County Board of Commissioners. Each commissioner has two appointments, including one residing in the commissioner's district. The terms expire when the appointing commissioner's term expires. The full County Board of Commissioners also makes one at-large appointment to the Planning Board.
