Agenda Item Text:
Adopt Resolution 11-___ supporting the Brophy Land Exchange or Resolution 11-___ not supporting the Brophy Land Exchange.
Background:
Stephen M. Brophy wrote a letter to Supervisor Richard Searle outlining the proposed land exchange with the Forest Service. This information (see attached exhibit A) was turned over to the PLAC for comment. PLAC decided against support for the land exchange as it is counter to the National Environmental Plan Act (NEPA) policies just incorporated into Cochise County Comprehensive Plan. There was agreement that this exchange would not result in a huge loss for the County but reluctance to go against the newly adopted policies the first time they were factored into a decision. Four members voted against and 1 member abstained as she was not a member when the policies were adopted.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
Communicate the decision to Mr. Brophy
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
According to the policy, a private property owner has the right to exchange his or her property as seen fit within applicable laws.
To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:
Send Resolution copy to Mr. Brophy.
