May 8, 1978 Page 6 <br />reviews it and a report is prepared for the City Council. <br />Mayor Pickar suggested that the Task Force could review the Planning Commission <br />recommendations and add their own comments at that time. <br />Councilmember Rowley asked the City Attorney if he felt the Task Force should review <br />items before the Planning Commission. Attorney Meyers replied that according to <br />Resolution #892, the policy applies to all development proposals as referred to in <br />Chapter 59.07, and the way the resolution reads, he does not interpret it that <br />the Task Force should review each application. <br />Councilmember Rowley stated she felt the Task Force should review the items before <br />the Planning Commission does as they may contradict what the Planning Commission <br />recommends. She added that she feels the applications should go from Staff, to the <br />Task Force, to the Planning Commission, and then to the City Council. <br />Mr. Loeding stated that he could agree with that order and asked if the Planning <br />Commission reviews all items. Councilmember Baumgartner replied that they see <br />everything except building permits other than commercial or industrial. <br />Mr. Loeding stated that he would prefer the Task Force reviewing all permits. <br />Engineer Hubbard replied that that would present a problem if the Task Force were <br />to review all building permits as there is a 24 hour wait from the time a permit <br />is applied for, and if the Task Force reviews them, there could be a time problem. <br />Mr. McCarty stated that he felt the Task Force has more manpower to get out and look <br />at developments overall and that he would like to prevent problems before they start. <br />Attorney Meyers stated that the City could refuse to issue a building permit if the <br />applicant was going to contribute to the problem but that the Court could order a <br />permit issued. <br />Mr. McCarty stated he would like to know where the Task Force fits in. Attorney Meyers <br />replied that the Task Force will be involved in anything under Chapter 59.07. Mayor <br />Pickar added that it could be pinpointed even better at the next Task Force meeting. <br />Councilmember Rowley asked if the Task Force could go out at look at the City and <br />indicate on a map the lots they feel are not buildable and check back with Staff so <br />Staff could notify them when those particular lots were going to be built upon. <br />Mr. Loeding stated that he would be willing to look at the building permits after they <br />were issued. <br />Administrator Achen asked the Council to clarify what is going to be required of Staff <br />since the policy was adopted in the resolution covering more than two single family <br />homes and the Task Force is saying that that may be a major part of the problem. He <br />asked how far Staff is to go and what will be required of them in helping the Task <br />Force. Mayor Pickar replied that the Task Force should be able to review the building <br />permits. <br />Administrator Achen stated that he presumes the Task Force will want to review the <br />permits in accordance with storm drainage and pointed out that the file will not <br />indicate what they are looking for. He added that he does not want the Task Force <br />frustrated with the Staff because the building permits will not give them the <br />information they are looking for. <br />
