Town Council requests joint meeting; commissioners discuss likely agenda on parking and transportation
Summary
Town Council has asked for a joint session with the Planning Commission; commissioners discussed possible formats (tour, listening session, brainstorm) and potential agenda items including parking regulations and the transportation element, but no date was set.
Planning staff told the commission that Town Council has requested a joint meeting or combined session with the Planning Commission and that the format can vary from a town tour to a community listening session or a joint briefing.
"I have not seen a lot of direction from Town Council about what their goals are for this joint meeting, but they've requested it," a planning staff member said. Commissioners said they expect the meeting could include parking questions and the transportation element, and they clarified the division of authority: Town Council handles revenue-related decisions such as paid parking while the Planning Commission would advise on regulatory items such as parking requirements for new development.
Commissioners were told the transportation element will come before the planning commission again this year, and staff offered to consult with Town Council on recommended formats and goals once council expresses its priorities. No joint-meeting date was set during the Jan. 20 meeting.
