I'm

so
this
portion
of
the
public

is
for
the
purpose
of
considering
and
receiving
comments
regarding
the
approval
of
the
2022
land

The

with
that
resolution.
The
hearing
has
been
duly
advertised

That
constitutes
the

of
this

today.
If
you
wish
to
provide
comment
via

please
call
toll-free
888-475-4499.
B
G
I'll
go
directly
into
the
presentation,
so
this
is
a
presentation
that
both
both
the
planning
commission
and
the
board
of
county
commissioners
have
seen
previously
the
process
and
schedule
for
this.
2022.
Land
preservation,
parks
and
recreation
plan
started
back
in
august
of
21
and
continued
on
with
work
sessions
and
this
presentation
being
provided
in
june
of
2022
to
both
the
planning,
commission
and
the
board
of
county
commissioners
for
any
further
comments.
G
G
G
G
G
So
when
the
respondents
participated
in
the
survey,
the
types
of
participation
in
activities
is
relayed
on
the
screen.
What
they
participated
in
most.
You
can
see
that
the
three
areas,
the
gray,
is
the
overall
survey
participants.
The
blue
is
the
invite
participants
and
then
the
open
link
is
in
the
orange.
G
G
So
the
importance
of
agricultural
and
land
preservation
was
a
top
priority
for
the
community,
as
you
can
see,
protecting
environmentally
sensitive
areas,
wetlands
floodplains
and
steep
slopes
from
developmental
impacts
had
a
very
high
percentage
of
four
and
five
respondents.
There
were
very
low
overall
in
the
one
and
two
responses
on
any
of
the
questions.
G
So,
with
this
survey
we
also
did-
or
with
the
the
plan
itself,
we
did
look
at
the
level
of
service
of
of
the
access
to
recreational
facilities,
so
there
were
many
maps
in
the
the
entire
plan.
This
is
one
that's
pulled
out
to
indicate
the
estimated
drive
times
to
parks
and
recreation
facility.
It's
a
little
hard
to
see
on
the
map,
but
you
can
see
in
the
different
colors,
whether
it's
greater
than
15
minutes
zero
to
five
minutes
or
five
to
15
minutes
to
a
parks,
recreation
facility,
13.
G
G
So
with
that,
when
we
worked
with
our
consultant,
we
looked
at,
they
made
recommendations
for
goals
and
objectives
on
how
to
achieve
what
the
community
is
looking
for.
As
far
as
the
next
five
years
for
the
land,
preservation
parks,
recreation
plan
and
what
we
came
up
with
with
the
assistance
of
our
consultant.
Barry
dunn
was
these
four
goals
to
improve
and
enhance
existing
calvert
county
parks
and
recreation
facilities
and
amenities
continue
and
improve
programming
and
natural
resource
opportunities
within
existing
and
future
parks.
G
Recreation
areas
continue
to
look
for
opportunities
to
develop
new
facilities
and
amenities
and
improve
and
strategize
organizational
efficiencies
and
the
next
few
slides.
I
won't
go
through
them
line
by
line
because
it's
quite
a
bit,
but
these
are
the
objectives
that
we
will
be
working
on
through
the
next
five
years
to
try
and
make
as
best
use
as
possible
of
this
land
preservation
parks
and
recreation
plan.
I
F
J
C

B

A

The
purpose
of
tonight's
public
hearing
is
to
review
and
to
discuss
the
proposed
text,
amendment
22-01
to
permit
assisted
living
facilities
within
the
d1
sub-district
of
the
solomon's
town
center.
Hopefully,
then,
we
will
follow
with
receiving
and
considering
of
public
comment
and
taking
action
on
the
proposed
text.
Amendment
the
planning
and
zoning
staff
received
a
text
amendment
request
from
the
department
of
economic
development
economic
development
staff
requested
this
text
amendment
be
pursued
to
permit
assisted
living
within
solomon
subdistrict
d-1.
L
Adopting
this
text
amendment
would
be
consistent
with
the
descriptions
of
the
types
of
uses
for
the
solomon's
talent
town
center.
Sub-Districts
d1
is
described
as
designated
primarily
for
mixed
use,
as
is
sub-district
d3
to
the
south,
to
the
north
are
subject:
districts,
d2
and
d3,
designated
primarily
for
residential
uses
and
subdistricts
d4
and
d5.
Also,
primarily
designated
for
mixed
use.
L
L
L
L
So
next
steps
include
discussion
and
or
questions
followed
by
public
comment.
Plan
commission
will
make
the
recommendation
to
the
board
and
then
the
board
of
county
commissioners,
hopefully
will
close
the
record
and
take
action
on
the
text
amendment.
So
now
I
will
open
it
up
for
for
questions
before
we
go
to
public
comment.
Thank
you.
C
C
F
Sure-
and
I
think
the
develop
the
owner
of
the
property
is
looking
to
get
some
assurance
that
they'll
be
able
to
do
this.
So
the
reason
we're
doing
this
text
amendment
they
moved
forward
in
good
faith,
thinking
that
this
was
a
permitted
use,
because
that's
how
the
use
charts
were
shown
on
the
calver
county
website.
That
was
an
error.
We
keep
the
official
copy
of
the
calver
county
zoning
ordinance
in
hard
copy
in
our
office
and
it's
not
a
permitted
use.
F
F
M
K
A
L
M
A
F
N
A
M
A
O
O
O
O
O
O
Also,
we
wanted
a
document
that
was
more
user-friendly.
Additionally,
there
have
been
changes
in
approaches
to
the
field
of
historic
preservation.
There
have
been
changes
in
materials
and
there
have
been
changes
in
technology
things
like
alternative
energy
and
how
that
could
work
with
historic
preservation.
We
wanted
a
document
that
would
capture
these
new
items.
O
As
far
as
moving
for
the
process,
the
board
of
county
commissioners
moved
to
initiate
the
planning
commission
moved
to
agency
comment.
Adequate
time
was
provided
for
legal
notice
at
the
the
board
of
county
commissioners
move
to
a
joint
session.
This
joint
session
and
the
purpose
of
this
joint
session
is
partially
to
adopt
these
as
the
historic
district
design
guidelines.
B
D
D
D
D
D
We
just
want
to
continue
to
raise
these
to
at
a
higher
profile
and
ensure
that
any
future
work
done
on
the
site
is
consistent
with
the
best
archaeological
research
and
that
is
done
appropriately
and
that
we
don't
damage
the
record
that
calvert
county
historic
district
commission
has
shown
for
these
types
of
sites
to
be
sparse,
narrow
or
non-existent.
So
I
want
to
just
bring
that
up
to
everybody's
attention
and
hope
that
that
site
is
is
really
cared
for
well
in
the
future.
Thank
you.
P
Yes,
how
you
doing
hey
jim
carver,
also
from
chew
creek
farms,
luke
did
a
great
job
on
trying
to
bring
attention
to
this
particular
piece
of
property
that
we
have
in
our
neighborhood.
But
my
big
thing
is
historical
preservation,
historical
preservation.
That
means
a
lot
to
me.
Everybody
seems
to
have
a
different
idea
of
what
it
means
to
them.
To
me.
P
It's
been
sitting
there
vacant
for
60
years,
nobody's
done
anything,
and
you
know
everybody
drove
past
it
every
day
and
then
all
of
a
sudden,
we
came
home
from
work
one
day
and
all
the
trees
were
gone
and
then
it
just
everybody's
going
what
and
then
after
the
trees
were
gone
then
they
came
in
and
they
they
did
a
survey
and
found
out
that
they
had
cut
trees
down.
They
just
came
in
and
cut
trees
down.
P
P
So
I
don't
know
what's
going
to
happen
with
this
thing,
but
but
that's
what
I'm
concerned
with
is
historical
properties,
I'm
all
for
preserving
history.
After
what
we're
witnessing
in
the
last
couple
of
years
in
this
country,
I'm
not
particularly
a
happy
camper
about
watching
american
history
disappear
and
being
rewritten,
I'm
not,
and
and
this
this
piece
of
property
in
particular
to
have
somebody
come
in
there
and
just
take
a
bulldozer
and
bulldoze
the
history.
P
P
P
P
C
E
P
E
N
O
No,
as
far
as
as
the
act
of
historic
preservation,
it
doesn't
change
it.
Those
it
will
become
the
guiding
document
that
should
plans
ever
come
through
that
are
requiring
of
a
historic
area
work
permit.
They
will
have
to
conform
with
these
guidelines,
but
these
guidelines
apply
to
every
historic
district.
The
changes
in
them
were
really
meant
to
address
the
changes
that
have
just
happened
more
broadly,
whether
they
be
materials
so
on
and
so
forth.
That
have
happened
since
the
previous
adoption
over
20
years
ago.
O
One
of
the
reasons
I
believe
that
that
was
not
done
is
because
this
was
not
changing
word
by
word.
In
other
words,
it
would
have,
it
would
have
been
a
bloodbath
if
we
had.
This
was
literally
gutted
re-put
together
a
lot
of
the
wording
updated
to
reflect
current
wording
and
a
lot
of
the
format
designed
to
be
more
usable
in
in
a
virtual
online
setting
substantively
there
there
really
weren't
any
changes.
A
O
O
F
And
commissioner
gadway,
I
do
believe
we
presented
it.
It
was
attached
to
every
agenda
that
it
was
on.
So
when
it
went
to
the
planning
commission
it
was
on
their
website
agenda.
You
could
click
on
the
document
when
it
was
on
the
county
commissioners,
when
chris
presented
it
you
could
click
on
the
document
and
review
it.
M
O
I'm
glad
you
asked
that
question
I
would
say
in
regards
to
development.
There
is
effectively
no
change
its
impact
to
historic
district
owners.
I
only
see
as
a
benefit,
because
in
the
past
21
years
there
have
been
development
of
materials
and
again
also
alternative
energies
that
were
not
addressed
under
these
under
the
previous
guidelines,
and
these
newer
materials
are
often
more
affordable,
more
durable
and
they
still
achieve
the
look
and
feel
of
historic
materials,
and
they
are
now
acceptable
that
they
just
didn't
exist
21
years
ago.
O
However,
as
far
as
the
effect
on
what
can
be
developed
and
what
can't
be
much
like
other
forms
of
preservation,
I'm
a
big
fan
of
rural
preservation
because,
in
my
mind,
world
preservation
is
historic,
preservation
and,
and
the
purpose
of
the
historic
preservation
is
to
keep
it.
And
the
purpose
of
these
guidelines
is
to
inform
historic
district
owners
of
what
changes.
If
they
do
make.
It
are
permissible
what
are
not
permissible.
O
It
informs
the
historic
district
commission
when
they're
reviewing
historic
area
work
permits
as
to
whether
or
not
it
is
in
line
not
only
with
this.
But
this
document
is
based
on
national
standards,
on
secretary
of
st
secretary
of
interior
standards
for
rehabilitation,
so
as
far
as
what
it
permits
and
what
it
doesn't
permit,
there's
no
real
changes
in
effect
that
what
it
permits
from
for
the
exterior
it
only
regulates
exterior
it
it.
That
is
a
limiting
factor.
It
limits
what
people
can
do.
M
O
O
O
Yes,
sir,
it
is,
it
is
often
the
entire
parcel.
However,
in
instances
we
have
instances
where
we
have
historic
resident
or
sorry,
we
have
historic
tobacco
barns
that
are
on
the
same
parcel
as
a
not
historic
domestic
single-family
home.
In
those
cases,
they
usually
elect
to
put
the
barn
in
preservation.
O
O
Yeah
we
would
have
to
go
through
almost
all
of
these.
All
of
these
are
would
already
have
forms
maryland
inventory
of
historic
properties
forms
on
file
with
the
maryland
historical
trust,
that's
usually
a
starting
point,
but
the
maryland
the
the
his
the
maryland
inventory
of
historic
properties
is
purely
for
informational
research
value.
It
is
not
a
regulatory
designation,
so
while
it
does
note
that
it
is
a
historic
property,
it
doesn't
place
any
restrictions.
O
O
O
Well,
in
the
instance
of
a
neighboring
property,
I
there's
not
an
authority
within
the
ordinance
that
I
know
of
overlays
in
other
jurisdictions,
where
the
overlay
extends
to
adjoining
landowners,
and
that
is
not
the
case
with
the
historic
district
ordinance.
So
what
I
would
have
is,
I
would
have
the
ability
to
review
when
it
came
through
the
permitting
process,
and
then
it
would
depend
on
things
like
if
it
were
in
a
town
center,
where
I
would
have
a
different
ability
to
either
restrict
or
request
or
require
in
most
cases
it's
a
request.
A
O
N
O
The
wording
of
the
chapter
57,
the
historic
district
order
ordinance,
is
if
they
are
significant,
historic
and
that
has
been
interpreted
by
the
historic
district
commission
to
apply
to
historic
plantings.
In
other
words,
if
there
were
a
line
of
boxwoods
that
went
along
a
driveway
or
something
like
that,
that
lent
themselves
to
the
historic
character
of
the
in
that
case,
that,
yes,
that
would
require
historic
area
work
permit.
If
that
answers
your
question.
O
N
O
Required
a
county
permit,
the
the
ordinance
does
also
provide
that
when
a
county
permit
comes
through
so
if
the
retreat
removal
would
require
a
county
permit,
then
that
would
be
also
routed
through
my
desk
for
review.
I
would
acknowledge
that
it
was
a
historic
district
and
I
would
then
require
that
prior
to
signing
off
on
their
building,
permit
a
grading
permit.
Sorry,
I
would
require
that
they
receive
a
historic
area.
Work
permit.
