Regular City Council Meeting Monday, January 09, 2017 Page 7 Mayor Roe suggested an annotated version, referencing the schedule as outlined in the presentation and as various iterations come before the City Council, there would be the usual opportunity for public comment. Therefore, from the point of view to solicit comments, Mayor Roe suggested noticing residents that have brought forward a subdivision request in the immediate past, and seeking their in- put from that perspective. Since the process used by the Lalce McCarron's neigh- borhood has the involvement of the surrounding neighborhood, Mayor Roe opined that an open house format made more sense as done in the past by the city and prior to the formal public hearing at the Planning Commission or subsequent to the next City Council discussion scheduled for February 13, 2017. Mayor Roe aslced staff and Mr. Lamb to consider that in developing the schedule. Councilmeinber McGehee agreed with Mayor Roe's suggestion; and yielded to staff, opining they'd done a good job in the past of noticing interested parties. However, with not seeing that option in the proposed schedule, Councilinember McGehee wanted to ensure public comment was made available when and where appropriate, and allowing sufficient time for the City Council to get advance feedback before it fonnally goes to the Planning Coinmission. Mayor Roe agreed with Councilmember Willmus on the need to continue involv- ing the leadership of the Parks & Recreation Commission early on to help the City Council in their decision-making for land or cash respective to park dedication; or at least to inform policy discussions. Mayor Roe sought future input from Mr. Lamb based on his perspective during those upcoining policy and city code dis- cussions. 12. Public Hearings and Action Consideration 13. Budget Items 14.
