You know what I mean? Uh
Good evening, everyone. The February eighth, twenty twenty-four Loudoun County Planning Commission work session will now come to order. As is our custom, please s let us stand for the Pledge of Allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Got a lot of reading to do tonight. Pursuant to the code of Virginia section two dot two dash three seven zero eight dot three and the planning commission remote participation policy, Commissioner Banks has requested to pers participate in this meeting by electronic communication from a remote location that is not open to the public. Commissioner Banks. has stated that he cannot attend this meeting due to a personal matter and will be joining this meeting from Steamboat Springs, Colorado, which is not open to the public. As required by law, a physical quorum of the planning commission is present in the boardroom and the commission has made arrangements for the voice of Of Commissioner Banks to be heard by all persons in the room.
Commissioner Banks made this request within the timeframe required by policy, and the county attorney has determined that Commissioner Banks meets the qualifications to participate remotely. The Commission will record in its minutes the specific nature of the personal matter and the location from which Commissioner Banks participated remotely. We are here for our work session, but we do have public comment tonight. Man members of the public who wish to comment on any item on the agenda may do so at the beginning of the meeting.
