PL Minutes <br />October 27, 2011 <br />Due to concerns expressed by the stakeholders, the City Council directed staff to reduce the scope of the <br />project and revise the draft plan that was in place. The current plan consists of Book I, the Vision Statement; <br />Book II, Development Regulations; and Book III, Implementing Actions and Investments. <br />Nora Gierloff, Deputy Director, Department of Community Development, suggested that the Commissioners <br />start fresh on the review process for the revised document. She also suggested that public outreach and the <br />public hearing takes place the first quarter in 2012. The Commission vvas asked to think about whether they <br />will be interested in taking public continents during Nvorksess ions. Commissioner Alford and McLeod both <br />expressed their preference to wait and hear public comments during the public hearing. Commissioner <br />Hundtofte agreed, although he vvas open to hearing public comments during vvorksess ions if it would prevent <br />a lot of changes to the plan later. <br />Commissioner McLeod shared his experience on the American Planning Association (APA) Conference he <br />attended in Portland. He talked about several of the sessions he attended, one of which was the Washington <br />Planning Short Course. He said the conference ivas fascinating and he thanked the City allowing him the <br />chance to attend. <br />Nora Gierloff commented that the City would support other Commissioners if they interested in attending <br />the next time there is an APA Conference. <br />An updated copy of the Planning Commission Rules and Procedures were provided to the Commissioners. <br />Submitted By: Wynetta Bivens <br />Planning Commission Secretai <br />Adjourned: 8:10 PM <br />Adopted: 11 /1(_) /11 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />
