Brownell Zoning - Commission request the Secretary sendthe
approved recommendations of the Planning and Zoning
Commission to Council.
Whitaker moved that we request the City Attorney to comment
on the proposal sumbitted to him in the street problems in
annexed territories and draft ordinance on the sidewalk
proposal. Seconded by Breasted. All in favor, motion carried
unanimously.
Commission requested the motion on vacations of streets and
alleys that was passed by the Planning and Zoning Commission
be sent to Council by the Secretary. (Minutes of March 31st)
Mr. Wurl explained the function of the Planning and Zoning
Commission is to assist the Council and Administration in
the establishment of policy and guidelines and priorities
as relates to growth patterns and development of the City.
For example the capital improvements program - promote and
stimulate interest in general planning process.
The Planning and Zoning Commission has not taken advantage
of the administrative people. Another problem is some of
the Council looks at the Planning and Zoning Commission as
playing the role of a second city council.
Robin Molny, James Breasted and City Administrator Wurl to
work on the list of priorities, seperating those which can
be delved into by the Planning and Zoning Commission prior
to a planner, and those items which will require a planner's
assistance.
Mr. Wurl explained when the parks and recreation plan was
prepared, it was prepared with only the city in mind. Parks
and recreation is now under the RSA, so this plan should be
looked at in the light of including the county as well,
Mr. Wurl explained another problem of the Planning and
Zoning is utilizing the city attorney in the wrong way. Do
not need to use the City Attorney in the first stage level.
Take what you have as a basic policy, outline and then leave
it up to the city attorney to put it in ordinance form for
Council. Send recommendations to Council be formal resolu-
tion. Can use the city attorney to word the resolution that
goes to Council.
