Planning Commission <br />Meeting Minutes <br />April 8, 2021 <br />Page 7 of 7 <br /> <br />dark-sky situation for existing lights but they may not be perfect. He explained the <br />details of the lighting options available through Excel. <br /> <br />Diehl stated that whatever they could do as a Commission he would support, such as <br />sending a letter up to Council or engaging with other commissions. <br /> <br />Rice asked about in-person meetings. <br /> <br />Council was contemplating discussing that in July. <br /> <br />Brauneis asked how to blow the top off the McCaslin Redevelopment project. <br /> <br />Zuccaro shared that the Comp Plan Update was usually a 1-2 year process and the <br />next one could change policy. He emphasized the importance of aligning balancing <br />community desire with economic reality. <br /> <br />Williams shared that when the town of Superior was trying to get the downtown up-and- <br />running they chose to create their own preliminary PUD and that attracted a developer <br />within a year with huge community input. <br /> <br />Ritchie added more context to the Superior example, sharing that the land was not <br />owned by the City and that it was a greenfield project, which was easier than <br />redevelopment. She agree with Director Zuccaro that the community’s expectations <br />would need to adjust to the market or there needed to be a balance between community <br />and market, and she noted that excluding some land uses made redevelopment even <br />harder. <br /> <br />ITEMS TENTATIVELY SCHEDULED FOR THE MEETING ON MAY 13, 2021 <br />Ritchie stated that the May meeting would likely be quite full and May 20th would be the <br />likely overflow date. <br />Zuccaro and Planner Ritchie reminded the Commission that the first to apply was the <br />first to go on the agenda and shared potential approaches to cutoff times for the May <br />meetings. <br />Dan Mellish stated that he was on the Sustainability Advisory Board and was interested <br />in getting ahead of some of the Redtail Ridge with the public outcry and in observing the <br />Planning Commission. <br />Brauneis thanked Board Member Mellish for attending the meeting. <br /> <br />ADJOURN <br />Rice moved to adjourn. Williams seconded. Meeting adjourned at 8:11 PM.
