Mr. Trudgeon advised that the limited number of meetings in the recent past is due to the current economy and construction level in the City, and not based on staff’s administrative deviations. Mr. Trudgeon opined that the spring construction season may see more variance requests being brought forward. Commissioner Gottfried advised that, while he had not been tapped for a long time as an alternate, it was difficult for him to make a 5:30 meeting during the legislation session; and would prefer to remain an alternate and not to serve on a regular basis.
