F. DIRECTOR'S ITEMS (ITEM 1)
1. Potential electronic Community Development Board Packet
Planning Manager Ella Crandall provided a PowerPoint presentation on accessing
CDB (Community Development Board) agendas and case file materials including
applications, site plans, staff reports, etc.
Planning & Development Director Gina Clayton said creation of a new application
and document submittal process was underway. The new procedure will be
implemented at some point the future and will reduce work for staff and applicants
who currently provide 10 full sets of documents.
Administrative Assistant Sherry Watkins said when the January agenda is finalized
she will forward a link for members to review case materials before document
packets arrive.
Consensus was to support a paperless agenda packet. Information was requested
on how to attach personal notes to downloaded PDFs and mark sections of interest.
It was questioned if notes made on personal devices were public records and if
members could access case materials on dais computers. Concern was expressed
that it was difficult to cross reference and compare documents on a computer. It was
noted members could print out sections of interest.
In response to questions, Ms. Clayton said the City did not want notes uploaded into
its case files. There will be no courier service once the new procedure is established.
