Executive Summary:
On May 19, 2026, the matter was heard before the Board of Supervisors. No final determination was made, and the matter was continued with instructions to property owner Michael Burns (Burns) to submit an application for a pre-app consultation with the Planning Division within fifteen (15) days and for Staff to work on a compliance agreement within forty-five (45) days.

Staff requests a continuance to a future meeting.
