There will be a Commission training session, given by Marcel Quimby, on Thursday, October 20 to discuss “site plan and infill review”. More information will be forthcoming. A Subcommittee meeting will be held during the next week to discuss the new Library and the final revisions needed for that review. Please let Ms. Rowe know if you are interested in serving on that subcommittee. Copies of the Commission’s Bylaws were included in the packet. Commissioners were asked to review the attendance policy shown in Section 4.4. To remain in good standing on the Commission, attendance is required at 75% of the meetings, and based on excused absences. No more than four meetings in a year are to be missed. This applies to regular appointed members, not alternates. A list of City Planning Staff was given. If a Commissioner is to be absent, they should contact Karen Frost. If a Commissioner has a problem with receiving information packets, they should contact Jim Babcock. All HARC review issues should be directed to Rebecca Rowe. Ms. Rowe ensured that all Commissioners have a copy of the Design Guidelines and the Downtown Master Plan. She also suggested that the HARC review sections of the UDC that apply to their approvals and review. She will be bringing those sections to each meeting for discussion. Ms. Rowe discussed Subcommittees and Administrative Approval of certain Certificates of Design Compliance. Section 2.50.050 Delegation of Authority, of the bylaws states “The HARC shall have the express authority to delegate review of minor projects (as defined by majority vote of the HARC) to either: 1.) A subcommittee of the HARC composed of at least three members; or 2.) City staff as designated by the City Manager.” Ms. Rowe stated she is the City Manager’s delegate at this time. She wanted to define the “minor projects”. Ms. Rowe proposed signage, amendments to approved CDC’s, landscaping that does not require a site plan, not parking spaces or added impervious coverage, and temporary banners which are only allowed for 45 days a year be reviewed for administrative approval. Items to be considered by subcommittee would be such things as permanent signage, and structural amendments to approved CDC’s – brick to stone for example. If the subcommittee is not comfortable making a recommendation, the item is referred to the full Commission. If an item is denied approval by the subcommittee, the appeal is to the full Commission. She is proposing bringing forth language in the future to amend the Unified Development Code, codifying these changes. Clarification was made that there is not a standing subcommittee, it is based on availability of Commissioners. This has been discussed by the Commission before but this needs a definition and amendments to be codified. Commissioners agreed that they were amenable to this and Ms . Rowe should come forth with specific language. Ms. Rowe asked for a subcommittee to review the Library revisions. Siding, windows, fountains and roofline gables were changed. Would this be a subcommittee review? The Commission proposed a subcommittee review these new changes. Chair Sparks asked for volunteers. Commissioners Gray, Chapman, Easley and O’Donnell volunteered and were to be contacted to meet regarding this review. 14.Comments, questions and general discussion from Commission and/or staff. A. Reminder of the next meeting, October 27. Chair Sparks stated that a new alternate has been appointed, Nancy Knight, and that she is unavailable for the next couple of meetings and the training session coming up on October 20, 2005.
