Board discusses joint work session with planning commission to set expectations, milestones
Summary
Supervisors and staff proposed a joint work session with the planning commission to clarify the advisory board's role, set milestones for small projects and major ordinances (sign ordinance) and ensure planning commission agendas produce timely recommendations.
Supervisors discussed convening a joint work session with the planning commission to give the advisory body clearer direction, set milestones and avoid a string of stalled items. Board members said they want the planning commission to be empowered to deliberate and vote, while also receiving adequate staff support and clear calendars.
One supervisor said the planning commission should be able to "vote it up, vote it down" and produce actionable recommendations. Staff said they would prepare suggested topics, timelines and potential plan B agenda items so the commission's calendar remains productive even if a developer-driven item is postponed.
The board agreed to pursue a joint session and asked staff to propose dates and an agenda that would focus on the sign ordinance, small projects and benchmarks for land-development reviews.
