MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS Amendments to Plan Commission policies and meeting schedules. Mayor Slocomb addressed the Commission stating that due to balancing the budget and not raising the City portion of the tax rate, it has been necessary to get rid of two positions in the Plan Department. There will be no intern hired next year and the Assistant Plan Director position has been eliminated. Plan Director Turk is looking for direction from the Commission on several items that he feels need to be addressed to continue running the Plan Department in an efficient manner while also expanding duties to include economic development. Currently the Engineering and Planning Departments have general service agreements with consulting engineering firms to review engineering plans. Director Turk is proposing to obtain general service agreements with several consulting firms to have them review items being submitted to the Plan Commission. Under Mr. Turk’s direction the consulting engineers will review proposals, draft supplements and resolutions. Smaller items, such as accessory structures and certified survey maps will be reviewed by staff. Mr. Turk is also proposing to have one Plan Commission meeting per month, but keep the third Tuesday open should the agenda become too large or for special need cases. This will give Mr. Turk the opportunity to work on the goals set for him for economic development. Discussion ensued regarding a number of items including the cost for reviewing the larger submittals, the benefit for farming out submittals, and having a time limit on the meeting. The consensus of the Commission was to have two shorter meetings per month and secure general service agreements for the reviews. Mr. Turk also requested input regarding consent items for new signs for businesses. Again, looking for direction as to whether approval for these items could be done administratively. The complex signs would be brought to the Plan Commission. Consensus of Commission was to have the signs brought to Plan Commission. PAGE 4 Plan Commission Minutes, continued October 7, 2003 Mr. Hulbert addressed the Commission as a representative of the Park Board to discuss the recreation / horse trails.
