Commission members in attendance included Hope Brogunier, Cindy DeBeck, George Elliott, Shep Harris, Jackie Hewett, Jim Hinds, Lucy Quimby, and Marion Rudnicki, and Jim Parker sat in representing Mark Conley. Staff members included David Gould and Jim Ring. Chair Shep Harris called the meeting to order at 1:03. First order of business was approval of the December 16 meeting minutes. Jim Ring indicated that the City Council recently approved the appointment of George Elliott and Jackie Hewett to fill the vacated seats of Sandi Duchesne and Carol Epstein, and reminded the membership of the need to apply for reappointment. Discussion of the Draft Ordinance continued from the prior meeting, and staff went over some additional revisions based on Commission discussion at the last meeting. Some of the topics of discussion included liability associated with open space (adequately covered by current law), possible tax implications of open space dedication, and whether “cash in lieu” provision should be applicable to clustered development, which the group agree should not be. Chair Harris expressed a desire to move forward with a recommendation for approving the Draft Ordinance at the next meeting that incorporates the revisions developed through Commission review to date. The group agreed it was important to move forward so that an Ordinance would be in place for pending development projects. It is also recognized that amendments over time will also be likely as experience is gained through actual applications. rd The next meeting was scheduled for Friday, February 3 at 1:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers. The meeting was adjourned at approximately 2:50 p.m. REMINDER: NEW APPLICATIONS FOR COMMISSION REAPPOINTMENT NEED TO BE SUBMITTED.
