Advisory board names representative and alternate to Skyway Design Review Committee
Summary
The RAB appointed a primary representative and an alternate to the Skyway Design Review Committee after a staff presentation describing the committee's advisory role and limited time commitment.
An assistant director from development services asked the advisory board to appoint one primary and one alternate member to the Skyway Design Review Committee, a body the city ordinance requires for any proposed skyway project. The assistant director described the committee's role as advisory: members provide feedback, not votes, and should expect a small time commitment for application review.
"Your input is not a yes or no vote. It's just feedback," the assistant director said while explaining the committee's process and the expected two-hour time commitment for review. Member Jay Kenny moved to appoint the primary representative (named in the transcript with variant spellings) and Mike Van Houten as the alternate; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote with ayes and no recorded opposition.
Staff said they anticipate scheduling a meeting later this month to review a current application and will circulate materials in advance. The board will provide feedback to planning commission and city council as part of the review chain required by the ordinance.
