Chair Blank stated that he thinks it would be a good thing to agendize it because he has some questions. He asked staff if it is within the Commission's purview to get rid of the LEED program if it so chooses. Mr. Dolan said no. He added that the Commission can make the recommendation, but ultimately the Council would make the decision because it is embedded in an ordinance. Chair Blank stated that he wanted to make sure that this would not be a significant workload from staff's perspective. Mr. Dolan replied that preparing for the discussion would not be. Commissioner Narum moved to agendize the item. Commissioner Posson seconded the motion. Commissioner Olson stated that he thinks Commissioner Posson's review at the beginning of the discussion is a good preamble to what the Commission wants to try to do with this. Chair Blank agreed. Commissioner Narum withdrew her motion. Commissioner Posson moved that the Planning Commission agendize a discussion on applicability of renewable energy and water supply conservation for projects that come before the Planning Commission. Commissioner Olson seconded the motion. ROLL CALL VOTE: AYES: Commissioners Blank, Narum, O'Connor, Olson, and Posson. NOES: None. ABSTAIN: None. RECUSED: None. ABSENT: Commissioner Pearce. Chair Blank stated for the record that every time Commissioner Posson brings matters up, he is learning some really good things that he did not know before. He indicated that he was initially skeptical, but after hearing what Commissioner Posson said, he realized that it is a really good idea. He expressed appreciation to Commissioner Posson for feeding this information to the Commission because it is clearly an area where the Commission, or at least he, needs to become better educated. Commissioner Posson thanked Chair Blank. PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, April 24, 2013 Page 9 of 11
