- Focus for training:
• Rules that govern the Commission. Including by laws and Robert’s Rules of order
• Zoning. This year we would like to focus on:
1. Zoning code (possibly use some of the training material put together by the city)
2. University Area overlay
3. New maps that include all the over lays in the district
4. We would also like to review the new zoning check list being worked on by Commissioner Serantes
5. Commissioner Graver will also ask Commissioner Grado to put together a small pamphlet regarding zoning.
- All Commissioners are encouraged to attend the training, but it is mandatory for all new Commissioners.
- Commissioner Uhas-Sauer may be able to do a tour of the area as part of this training. Details still need to be worked out
6. The Committee will not meet in July.
