Dates and wording are the source's own. Sources publish late and amend; the official record is the authority.

What this case is

Rezoning. A rezoning asks the local government to change the zoning district on a piece of land, which changes what can be built there and how much of it. It is decided by the elected board after a public hearing, usually with a recommendation from a planning board first, and takes effect by ordinance. Approval sets the entitlement. The owner still needs a site plan and building permits before construction starts, and each of those is its own step on the record.

Who decides what on this record:

• Introduced. The item was formally placed before this body for the first time. It marks the start of that body's review, not a decision. A public hearing and a vote follow at a later meeting.
• Board of County Commissioners (BOCC). The county's elected board. It is the final word on county land use decisions. Nothing further is needed. This vote is the county's decision.
