RCA Attachment D Bryan Lloyd From: Sent:Tuesday, July 26, 2022 3:53 PM To:Dan Roe; Jason Etten; Wayne Groff; Julie Strahan; Robert Willmus; Bryan Lloyd Subject:Mea Culpa re. Brama Replat Supplemental Notes Caution: This email originated outside our organization; please use caution. To Roseville City Council members, Please forward this email to Mark Gaughan and Patrick Trudgeon whose emails are not readily apparent After the meeting last night I learned that the link in my notes to the Urban Forest Master Plan is for Roseville, CA not Roseville, MN. Can I blame Google? Actually, the document is a worthy read and uses many, evidently common terms like DBH (Diameter Breast Height) but for providing misinformation I apologize. I appreciated the Council's decision to table the Brama replat resolution until August 8 for more study. But who is going to be involved in that study and can we, as the citizens most affected, be included? I have a serious gripe about the city's lip service re. pre-development community engagement. A 1.5 hr virtual zoom open house with Tom Brama came across as a gripe session, not a pre-development rewarding, give&take conversation/debate. Not only was this session less than satisfactory, the Planning Commission meeting and subsequent conversation with Janice Grundlach, left me with the impression that a developer need only craft a proposal that stays within the lines of zoning codes to get preliminary approval and that the Planning Commission has no choice but to forward a recommendation to the City Council for adoption. We were free to provide commentary, but such commentary would bear no weight for the Planning Commission who is bound by zoning regs to approve proposals that are in compliance. Last night we were given a wholly inadequate three minutes of "community engagement". So much for public-private partnership. This is reflected in the planning commission meeting notes of July 25 1 Page 8 of 50
