Boulder planning commission approves bylaw updates and elects Elena Hughes as vice chair
Summary
The commission unanimously approved two bylaw changes (updated state-code references and a liaison role acknowledgment) and elected Elena Hughes vice chair after Colleen's resignation. Minutes and procedural edits were also approved.
The Boulder Planning Commission voted unanimously Feb. 17 to approve amendments to its bylaws and elected Elena Hughes as vice chair following Colleen’s resignation.
The bylaw changes include updated statutory references to reflect renumbered state code sections and a new acknowledgement of the town council liaison role in the commission’s procedures. The commission also changed attendance language so that a commissioner who misses more than three regularly scheduled meetings in a 12-month period without notifying the chair is subject to the attendance rule in the bylaws.
Nick Vincent moved to nominate Elena Hughes for vice chair; Phoenix seconded the nomination and commissioners approved it by voice vote. The commission also approved edits to the Jan. 20 meeting minutes to correct name formatting.
Chair Nancy Tosta summarized the roll-call outcome: "So we have a unanimous vote to approve these bylaws, pass this on." The commission instructed staff to transmit the approved bylaws to the town council and to post corrected minutes to the record.
What’s next: Staff will transmit the bylaw changes to the town council and will post the corrected minutes. The commission will continue work on the general plan and zoning code at subsequent meetings.
