• <br />MEMORANDUM <br />To: Members of the Planning Commission <br />CC: Justin Miller, City Administrator; <br />Laura Kuettel, Council Liaison <br />From: Deb Jones, Staff Liaison <br />Subject: Planning Commission Meeting on January 22, 2008 <br />Date: January 18, 2008 <br />Welcome to our two new commissioners, Meredith Anderson of 2280 Folwell and <br />Duane Hasegawa of 1750 Albert! <br />The regular meeting of the Commission will be held this coming Tuesday evening at <br />7:00 p.m. in the City Council Chambers. Please notify staff as soon as possible if you are <br />unable to attend because we do require a quorum. There are two items of business. <br />. 1) Elect a commission chair for the year <br />2) Review the Commission standing rules. <br />The primary responsibility of the commission chair is to preside over the meetings. <br />Generally the chair is someone who has already been serving on the Planning <br />Commission, not one of the new commissioners. The term is for one year. Please be <br />thinking about whom you might wish to nominate or if you would be willing to accept a <br />nomination to serve as chair this year. <br />We have not reviewed the standing rules in several years. Most of you probably do not <br />even have a copy! But since the city administrative manual is in the process of being <br />thoroughly updated, this is a good opportunity to take a look at this document and see if <br />any changes need to be made. You will notice that actual practice has been a bit simpler <br />than the written rules in some areas. Do we need to change the practice or adapt the <br />rules? The general planning commission policy document is mostly established by state <br />statute and city code, but it is a good idea to review it as well and point out anything <br />that catches your attention. <br />As of today we are still assembling the comp plan draft's many maps and figures so it is <br />not quite ready to post on the website. I will notify you as soon as it is available. <br />Please call or email me if you have any questions about the meeting or any of the <br />materials in the packet. <br />Have a good week! See you Tuesday! <br />
