<br />Roseville City Council <br />Minutes of 1/29/07 Pg 35 of 38 <br /> <br />Councilmembers Pust and Roe spoke to staff's recommendation for the <br />Planning Commission to serve as the facilitator of the study for public dis- <br />cussIOn. <br /> <br />Councilmember Roe suggested additional members to the study group (i.e., <br />four at-large members) in addition to the core Planning Commission. <br /> <br />Councilmember Kough spoke to the need to obtain substantial public input <br />in various forums, such as town hall meetings, or by using the HRA <br />neighborhood meetings as a model. <br /> <br />Councilmember Pust concurred, but noted the need to get the meetings <br />started, and the need to have someone to organize the meetings in the most <br />effective manner. <br /> <br />Councilmember Roe suggested a brief application process to achieve a bal- <br />anced group to assist the Planning Commission as a core group; suggesting <br />four (4) additional members. <br /> <br />Councilmember Ihlan expressed her discomfort in limiting the size of the <br />group; the need for the Council, not the Planning Commission, to drive the <br />process and review sample ordinances for ideas, in addition to previous <br />study scopes discussed by Ms. Ihlan and Mr. Stark; and the need to advertise <br />for public participation on a CAG dealing with subdivisions, in addition to <br />those addressed in the staff report. <br /> <br />Planning Commission Chair Mary Bakeman offered a perspective from the <br />Commission's viewpoint, of having this process jump start the Comprehen- <br />sive Plan Update, through extensive marketing and advertising, recognizing <br />the timeframe; and promoting the study to encourage open public participa- <br />tion, without the need for a formal application process. <br /> <br />Additional discussion included study group composition; and how formal of <br />an application process to follow. <br /> <br />Pust moved, Roe seconded, establishment and appointment of a Citizens <br />Advisory Group (CAG) consisting of the City's Planning Commission, in <br />addition to four additional at-large citizens to serve as the core study group; <br />directing staff to advertise for the four positions with a written application <br />
