The County finds the matter to be of some intermunicipal or regional concern, but its effects will be minimal on a county level. The board is asked to take these comments into consideration when making its decision. The County finds that the matter is of significant concern, namely that some aspect of a proposal will have a substantial adverse effect. The County advocates conditions that must be met before the request can be granted. It recommends that the board not grant approval.
Many boards use the County's recommendations to help achieve project improvements.
The County has 30 days from the time a complete application is received from the local board to make a recommendation. 30 days have passed since the County received the application. If the County fails to respond within 30 days, the local board may proceed with its action. If it is determined that the nature or scale of the proposal requires a more time-consumingreview, the 30 day period may be extended until two days prior to a final action by the referring body. The local board is required to send to the County a record of its decision within 30 days of the final action.
