Franklin County needs members for Planning and Zoning Board

Franklin county Commissioners are still having a hard time finding members for the County Planning and Zoning Board.

The planning and zoning board was unable to get enough members to this month’s meeting.

That leaves a number of local projects waiting another month until the P and Z can consider them and make a recommendation to the county commission.

County Coordinator Michael Moron said the problem is the two newest appointments to the board have said they will be unable to serve because of unforeseen scheduling issues.

So now the commission needs to find two new members – specifically someone for the seafood dealer’s seat and for the realtor’s seat.

The Planning and zoning board has 9 members; a number of those seats require people with a particular skill set.

At least one member has to be from the construction industry; there are also seats for seafood workers, seafood dealers, and even foresters.

If you are interested in serving on the P and Z, you can get more information about the requirements by contacting County Coordinator Michael Moron at 653-9783.
