Letter 4 — A Different Topic

In reading the staff report for item D5 “Revising the Fee Schedule”, I’m questioning the use of the term “Administrative Agricultural Use Permit.”

If you follow the language used in Town Code section 10-15D-9, it seems that using the term “Administrative Agricultural Review Process” is more consistent with this section. The table in this section currently uses the term Review Process for the requested use and zone. The Review Process is charged a $75.00 fee, while the Use Permit is charged a $200 fee. To me, using the term 'Use Permit' twice, for both Agricultural Use Permit and Administrative Agricultural Use Permit, is confusing.

Thanks for taking the time to consider my comments.
