Commission postpones permit for house that would encroach into resource-protection buffer

A commissioner asked the Planning Commission to accept the applicant's request to table case number 2609CBAE01, a proposal by Mr. Dimitian True to build a single-family dwelling in a resource-protection area that would encroach into the 50-foot seaward buffer.

"I was speaking to the applicant yesterday of Mr. Dimitian True who was requesting case number 2609CBAE01, to build a single family dwelling in the resource protection area with encroachments into the 50 foot seaward buffer," the commissioner said, explaining the applicant was updating engineering and site plans and the materials were not available for packet distribution.

The commission moved to postpone the case until the applicant provides the revised documents; a roll call vote carried the motion. Staff said the delay was recommended because the amended plans were not received in time to re-advertise and include in the commission packet.

The postponement means the county will not take final action on the permit until the applicant re-submits updated engineering documents and the matter is re-noticed for public hearing.
