Commission members may, at any point during the hearing, direct questions germane to the hearing to the Chairman, other ex-officio members, the applicant, and citizens, but must refrain from debate until close of public comments.
Commission members will declare conflicts-of-interest, if any, at this time.
THE HEARING PROCEDURES
The purpose of a public hearing is to give everyone an opportunity to offer their views and provide evidence in support of their views. This body of opinion and evidence creates the record upon which the Lewis County Planning and Zoning Commission rely on for their findings and conclusions. Opinions expressed and evidence offered “off the record” cannot be accepted because they may impair the fairness of the decision-making process. Your cooperation in keeping this process fair and orderly will be appreciated.
- PRIOR TO OFFERING TESTIMONY: Persons wishing to offer written and/or oral testimony on any item discussed at the public hearing must provide their name, address and telephone number on the attendance record provided on the table by the door.
- TO OFFER WRITTEN AND/OR ORAL TESTIMONY: Stand to be recognized by the Commission Chairman, give your name, mailing address and, if applicable, the organization you are representing. Then present your testimony. The Commission reserves the right to set a time limit of three minutes on testimony and to prohibit repetitive testimony.
- TO ASK A QUESTION: Time will be allotted for the public to ask questions. Signal the Commission Chairman by raising your hand and wait to be recognized. Members of the Commission may ask questions at all times and after each witness.
- Members of the Lewis County staff will pass out an INFORMATIONAL PACKET ON THE PROPOSED REQUESTS.
- Once written and oral testimony has been accepted into the record by the Commission Chairman and a final call for questions and testimony from members of the audience have been received, the Commission Chairman will announce the next steps in the decision-making process and close the hearing.
