Title
Supervisor Briggs, on behalf of Britt Porter, recommending the Board provide direction to the Community Development Agency, Development Services Division staff to:
1) Process requests to modify Certificates of Compliance for twelve (12) parcels in the Georgetown area: APN's 061-042-22, -23, -25, -26 and -31 through -38; and,

3) Return to the Board with the revised Conditional Certificates of Compliance for action.
