Comprehensive Plan Amendment Meeting Descriptions
The Comprehensive Plan amendment process includes a series of meetings. Descriptions of these meetings are below.
Public Open House – This open house occurs soon after the application deadline. The primary purpose of this meeting is to inform the public of the applications received and provide an opportunity for preliminary comments.
Local Planning Agency Workshop – The intent of this workshop is to allow Local Planning Agency (LPA), also known as the Planning Commission, and Tallahassee-Leon County Planning Department (TLCPD) staff to have an in-depth discussion of each of the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendments. The workshop is open to the public; however, no public comments are taken.
Local Planning Agency Public Hearing – This is a statutorily required public hearing with the Local Planning Agency. At this hearing, the LPA receives TLCPD staff recommendations on each of the proposed amendments and moves their own recommendations for the Joint City-County Commission. Each interested citizen has up to three minutes to speak.
Joint City-County Commission Workshop – Similar to the LPA Workshop, the intent of this workshop is to allow Joint City-County Commission and TLCPD staff to have an in-depth discussion of each of the proposed Comprehensive Plan amendments. The workshop is open to the public; however, no public comments are taken.
Joint City-County Transmittal Public Hearing – This is a statutorily mandated public hearing with the Joint City-County Commission. The Commissions receive TLCPD and LPA recommendations on each of the proposed amendments and votes on whether to transmit the proposed amendments to State agencies for review. Each interested citizen has up to three minutes to speak.
Joint City-County Adoption Public Hearing – This is a statutorily mandated public hearing with the Joint City-County Commission. The Commissions review comments received from State agencies regarding each of the proposed amendments and votes on whether to adopt the proposed amendments. Each interested citizen has up to three minutes to speak.
Rezoning Public Hearings – For approved map amendments that require rezoning, Public Hearings occur at the respective City Commission or County Commission meetings following the Joint City-County Adoption Public Hearing. Each interested citizen has up to three minutes to speak.
