e. Selection of one Commissioner to replace Commissioner Blank on the <br />Historic Preservation Task Force <br />f. Selection of one Commissioner to replace Commissioner Narum on the <br />East Pleasanton Specific Plan Task Force <br />g. Selection of two Commissioners to replace Commissioners Blank and <br />Narum on the Heritage Tree Board of Appeals for 2013 -2014 <br />With respect to Items 8.e., 8.f., and 8.g., the appointment of Commissioners to the <br />Historic Preservation and East Pleasanton Specific Plan Task Forces and the Heritage <br />Tree Board of Appeals, Commissioner Pearce noted that the Commission will have two <br />new Planning Commissioners shortly, following today's interviews of Planning <br />Commission applicants, and she was contemplating whether or not it would be wise for <br />the Commission to wait for the two additional Planning Commissioners to be on board <br />before have conversations on the appointments to the Task Forces and the Board of <br />Appeals. She further noted that there are no Historic Preservation Task Force or <br />Heritage Tree Board of Appeals meetings scheduled in the coming weeks, and the East <br />Pleasanton Specific Plan Task Force meeting is scheduled for June 6, 2013. <br />Chair Blank inquired if staff knew when the selection of the new Commissioners will be <br />made and when they will be appointed. <br />Mr. Dolan replied that he did not have a precise date but that there is a decent chance <br />that they will be appointed by the next Planning Commission meeting. He noted that <br />this is not a process in which staff participates in any way but that he would let the <br />Commission know as soon as he finds out. <br />Chair Blank inquired when the next City Council meeting was <br />Mr. Dolan replied that it would be on June 4, 2013. <br />Chair Blank noted that the next Planning Commission is on June 12, 2013, and <br />assuming the appointment to the Commission makes the Council agenda on June 4th <br />then it would make sense that the new Commissioners would be on board at the <br />June 12th meeting. <br />Mr. Dolan replied that staff would know by the time the Council Agenda goes out for the <br />June 4th meeting. <br />Chair Blank stated that, just to be clear, there is no ego to bruise here and that he would <br />not be offended if his replacement on the Historic Preservation Task Force or the <br />Heritage Tree Board of Appeals were selected. He asked Commissioners Olson, <br />O'Connor, and Posson if these were something that they would be interested in <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, May 22, 2013 Page 40 of 41 <br />
