The applicant, Jay Core, was not present. Staff reported that the applicant would not be

proof of ownership. Debra Weldon noted that the applicant must be present.

postponed until the applicant can be present. Commissioner Newbem seconded this.

possible use of a cell phone during the Public Hearing. Staff was asked to research the
possibility of cell phone use.
