  6. 6 STANDING TO APPEAL AND ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE FOR VARIANCE REQUESTS AND APPEALS OF ADMINISTRATIVE DECISIONS
  7. 7 The Land Use Hearing Officer Public Hearing for Variance Requests and Appeals of Administrative Decisions is the time for all interested citizens to present evidence and testimony. This evidence and testimony will be the only evidence subject to review by the appeal board if an appeal is filed. This means that, at the end of today’s Public Hearing, the record closes and no new evidence may be submitted as part of the record. Any decision of the Land Use Hearing Officer may be appealed to the Land Use Appeals Board, except Appeals of Administrative Decisions. The Appeals Board will only consider the Land Use Hearing Officer’s decision and the record of the public hearing in making a final decision on petitions. The hearing shall be limited to the record on appeal and shall consist of oral argument by the Administrator, the party appealing the decision, and any interveners, each of whom may be represented by legal counsel. The following shall have standing to appeal a decision of the Land Use Hearing Officer or to intervene in an appeal: 1. The Applicant 2. Any person or entity which appeared before the Land Use Hearing Officer, presented testimony or other evidence, and is adversely affected by the decision of the Land Use Hearing Officer. It is the County Attorney Office’s role to assure that no new evidence or testimony is allowed before the Appeals Board or the Land Use Hearing Officer. The County Attorney will recommend that the Appeals Board or the Land Use Hearing Officer disregard evidence or testimony which is not contained in the record. Any evidence presented which is outside the record made at today’s public hearing could jeopardize the legality of the Appeals Board’s decision and the presenter of that evidence could hurt his/her own cause. The requirements and limitations listed above shall apply to all appeals of Administrative Decisions being reviewed by the Land Use Hearing Officer during today’s hearing. The safest course of action is for you to write down your comments today and repeat those to the Appeals Board. Therefore, please be sure that all information which you wish to be heard by the Appeals Board is contained in the record today.
