PLANNING BOARD
After Action
June 26, 2012
Discussion - Planning Initiatives and Time Management
Charlie Urstadt initiated the discussion regarding Planning Board responsibilities, besides
applications for Conditional Use Permits. He suggested the board consider working on broader,
longer term planning initiatives on an ongoing basis and also on improving the way meetings
are run. The Board agreed that it should work on matters that would benefit the whole city, and
also, work on how the board can reduce its work load and better budget its time during
meetings, to improve its efficiency and effectiveness. Board members discussed what past
Boards have done and how they have done it, and agreed that the focus should be on the how.
To that end, actions on which there was consensus include:
Shifting applications for boat docks to the Board of Adjustment, or other alternative
modes of approval (passed a motion)
Holding half day or full day workshops, or special meetings, on different dates
Working with staff and the City Attorney’s office to resolve technical and legal issues
relative to applications ahead of the meeting
Having attorneys leave the podium after they’ve made their case for their clients.
Continuing to use common sense to limit the time that applicants and board members
speak, on a case by case basis, at the Chair’s discretion
Each member developing a list of planning issues for discussion and forwarding it to
staff before the July meeting for distribution to all other members
Motion: Stolar/Beloff. Vote 6-0. (Tobin’s seat vacant). Recommend to the Land Use and
Development Committee the transfer of the responsibility to hear boat dock applications to the
Board of Adjustment, the Marine Board, or another alternative.
