The first order of business is a staff review, followed by a presentation by the petitioner, then by opponents to the case, then discussion by the Commission and finally a formal vote on the petition. Cases should produce written findings of fact and written reasons for a decision to be made. Any rejected petition must not be reheard for a six-month period. At the new hearing new information, and a new or substantially new request must be offered. Subdivision plats must be approved if all of the subdivision requirements are met. The President may set reasonable time limits on speakers who wish to address the Commission.
