Summary

Two draft resolutions that would have appointed Cassius Lee as architectural consultant and Tachi Engineering as engineering consultant were tabled so the board can fix language about billing applicants and third‑party review triggers.

The board reviewed two draft resolutions that would name Cassius Lee as an architectural consultant and Tachi Engineering as the engineering consultant available for third‑party building permit reviews, but members agreed to delay the appointments until the resolution language is clarified.

Chair described the items as separate resolutions (referred to in discussion as items 102 and 103). Several board members questioned whether the draft text allows direct billing of applicants and said the resolution as written conflicts with current practice of embedding review costs in permit fees. The board asked staff to revise the draft language and return the items to the Aug. 3 agenda.
