PUBLIC
HEARING: Request from the Fire Department to
conduct a Public Hearing for Fire Hazard Abatement Cost Recovery. Confirm the
accounting as modified. Order that the costs as confirmed be recorded in the
office of the Tulare County Recorder. Order that the Tulare County
Auditor-Controller/Treasurer-Tax Collector place such costs on the County tax

4.
PUBLIC
HEARING: Request from the Resource Management
Agency to hold a Public Hearing to certify that the Board has reviewed and
considered the information contained in the Mitigated Negative Declaration and
Mitigated Monitoring Plan prepared for the project, together with any comments
received during the public review process, consistent with the California
Environmental Quality Act and the State CEQA Guidelines, prior to taking action
on the Change of Zone. Find that although there may be significant
environmental impacts as a result of this project, there will be none in this
case because mitigation measures have been incorporated that reduce any
potentially significant impacts to less than significant. Adopt the findings of
approval for the Mitigated Negative Declaration and Mitigation Monitoring Plan
as set forth in the Planning Commission Resolution No. 8884. Direct the
Environmental Assessment Officer of the Tulare Resource Management Agency to
file a Notice of Determination with the Tulare County Clerk. Adopt the findings
of approval for Change of Zone No. PZ 11-001, as set forth in the Planning
Commission Resolution No. 8885. Waive the final reading and adopt the amendment
to Ordinance No. 352, the Tulare County Zoning Ordinance for Change of Zone No.
PZ 11-001, to change the zoning designation on a 20-acre parcel from MR-217
(Mountain Residential-217,000 sq. ft. minimum) to CO (Commercial Recreation) on
property located on the north side of Goman Road, approximately 400 feet west
of Kennedy Meadows Road, in Kennedy Meadows. Direct the Clerk of the Board to
publish the adopted Ordinance and Amended Zoning Map.
