Virtual participation in this public hearing is available through communications media technology, as described below.
Copies of the applications, department reports and legal descriptions are available for public inspection in a master file maintained by the Development Services Department, the Board of County Commissioners and the Clerk of the Board of County Commissioners. All interested persons wishing to submit testimony or other evidence in this matter must submit same to the Hearing Master at the public hearing before him/her. The recommendation of the Zoning Hearing Master will be filed with the Clerk within fifteen (15) working days after the conclusion of the public hearing.
Virtual Participation Option: In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Hillsborough County is making it possible for interested parties to participate in this public hearing by means of communications media technology. In order to participate virtually, you must have access to a communications media device (such as a tablet or a computer equipped with a camera and microphone) that will enable you to be seen (video) and heard (audio) by the Zoning Hearing Master during the public hearing. Additionally, should you opt to participate virtually in this public hearing, you will be able to provide oral testimony to the Zoning Hearing Master, but you will be unable to submit documentary evidence during the public hearing. Therefore, if you opt to participate virtually in this public hearing, you must submit any documentary evidence you wish to be considered by the Zoning Hearing Master to the staff of the Development Services Department at least two business days prior to the Zoning Hearing Master hearing.
Anyone who wishes to participate virtually in this public hearing will be able to do so by completing the online Public Comment Signup Form found at: HillsboroughCounty.org/SpeakUp. You will be required to provide your name and telephone number on the online form. This information is being requested to facilitate the audio conferencing process. The Zoning Hearing Master will call on speakers by name in the order in which they have completed the online Public Comment Signup Form, depending on the application(s) to which each speaker signed up to speak. An audio call-in number will be provided to participants that have completed the form after it is received by the County. All callers will be muted upon calling and will be unmuted in the submission order after being recognized by the Zoning Hearing Master by name. Call submissions for the public hearing will close 30 minutes prior to the start of the hearing. Public comments offered using communications media technology will be afforded equal consideration as if the public comments were offered in person.
In Person Participation: While virtual participation is encouraged, standard in-person participation is still available. The format and procedures for in-person participation may differ from a traditional hearing. For the safety of participants and staff, social distancing will be properly adhered to at all times.
