Commissioner Kuyper (Mr. Kuyper arrived at 7:30 p.m.)
Ensued on various aspects of the functions of the Planning Commission
which is an advisory body to the City Council. Concerns were ex-
pressed about the appeals of developers to the Council when the
Commission denies an application and developers alter their plans
when a project is presented to Counci1...this usually means that
the City Council considers something different than was before
the Commission.
Various aspects were discussed... Appeals before the City Council
on projects which had been denied by the Commission...the possibility
of requiring pad elevations, drainage, etc., before it goes to
Council...ARA projects and whether or not a Planning Commissioner
should act as liaison to the Redevelopment Agency in which events the
Commission could be advised on projects which Council is consideriug..
text amendments which are presen~ed to the Commission for discussion
only and end up as public heari~gs before the Council and the use
of the zoning regulations instead of the conditional use permit process.
Alternate procedures from those now followed were explored. Some
discussion held by the Council Liaison to the Planning Commission
briefing the Council on items considered by the Commission.
It was the consensus that this meeting has been productive and thought
will be given to the expressed concerns.
The meeting recessed at 7:30 p.m.
The City Council reconvened at 7:45 p.m.
