Historic Preservation Commission Meeting Minutes September 28, 2016 Page 3 of 4 Keany says the Task Force discussion is about the Museum Campus. There should be an outside issues committee formed to support and promote the continuation of the HPF tax next year. The issues committee has to be separate from the City government once the ballot language is set due to campaign laws. CC will rely on these two Boards to submit a proposal suggesting the requested percentage from the HPF. Elrod says no more than two members from each Commission meeting can attend before it must be publicly noticed. Fahey says if a Commission member attends a meeting as a "resident" and not as a Board Member, there should not be an issue. A Board Member cannot discuss Board issues. Trice says there was a discussion about forming a Task Force regarding the HPF tax extension similar to what was done for the Rec Center issue. We need a group to work on the ballot language. Fahey says this meeting of the two Commissions basically is the Task Force. Keany says two members from each Board can work together to develop the language, go back to their Boards to get approval, and then submit to CC with support of Staff. I don't think anything should be formally done until after the November 2016 election. Mellish says if the HPF extension tax is approved and the suggested 20% allotment is used for the Museum O&M, will this be an annual exercise for the two Boards to meet and submit to CC? Keany says the "up to 20%" will probably remain on an ongoing basis if that is the recommendation. Mellish says as the Museum Campus starts to develop, we will need more resources. Are these resources going to increase as the Campus is more developed? I can see an annual review meeting. Chuck Thomas says I don't think the "u 0%" will be an issue for the HPC. Any percentage less will mean more funds for HPC projects. o se a motio approve the 20%?
