change the Planning and Zoning Commission meeting dates from 1st and 3rd
Thursdays to 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month
Motion to discuss: Lovell
Second: Neel
Nell said she was okay with moving the meeting dates from Thursday to Monday.
O’Farrell explained the change was intended to cluster Planning and Zoning meetings on
Mondays whether it be for joint public hearings or just regular meetings.
Lovell suggested waiting for Commissioners Branson and Sasson to vote on such a
change. Harbin stated Branson and Sasson were both in agreement to change the meeting
day. She said a Resolution for the change is on Council’s agenda for December 5th.
Annan asked what the benefit was to changing meeting days. Harbin explained it should
be easier for Commissioners to schedule if meetings always fell on a Monday. She said
changing meeting days is just a first step and it was being discussed to hold separate
public hearings instead of joint public hearings.
Lovell said the changing days and joint public hearings were confusing for applicants. He
suggested scaling back agendas in which joint public hearings would be held. Harbin
agreed but mentioned some agenda items had time frames, such as final plats, and would
need to be placed on agendas accordingly.
Motion to approve: Neel
Second: Lovell
Vote: 3 to 2 (Annan and Borghese against) Motion Failed
6. Consideration and possible action regarding future Planning and Zoning Commission
meeting dates
Harbin said the next meeting would be a joint public hearing with City Council for a zone
change on December 5, 2016.
7. Communications from the Commission
O’Farrell said he had Harbin forward an email regarding parking plans for the Montrose
area he thought the Commission would enjoy.
