Commissioner Ritter stated that he would be the same. <br />Chair Pearce asked Commissioner Ritter if he wanted all of Mr. MacDonald's suggestions <br />too. <br />Commissioner Ritter replied that he would like Policy #8 changed to have the FAR match <br />that of the rest of the City. <br />Chair Pearce clarified that what she was asking Commissioner Olson is whether he wants <br />all of Mr. MacDonald's suggestions incorporated in the motion and not just the FAR <br />because she was going to entertain a discussion about a FAR if it would get him to a "yes, <br />but if it is all of Mr. MacDonald's suggestions, then she would recommend that the <br />Commission move for a vote. <br />Commissioner Posson inquired if the Commission can discuss that a little more. <br />Chair Pearce said yes. <br />Commissioner Posson stated that frankly, that is the area where he got some heartburn. <br />He noted that the City is going to go out and do a survey, and he is wondering whether or <br />not it makes sense to reconsider the FAR language once the City gets a firm understanding <br />of how many properties and what specific properties are affected by this. He indicated that <br />he is very concerned about restricting the residents' ability to modernize their homes. He <br />added that he understands the compatibility issue and providing certainty, but he just does <br />not want to put a numerical limit or any restrictions in there. He suggested that this may be <br />something the Commission wants to consider recommending to the Council, that the <br />Council take a look at that 25- percent limit after the survey is completed. <br />Mr. Dolan stated that he just wants to clarify as the Commission considers that suggestion, <br />that this does apply to all the properties in the Specific Plan Area and so that is what the <br />concept issue is now. <br />Chair Pearce added that it is not just the ones in the Historic area, but it is the compatibility <br />issue with regard to Downtown. She asked the Commissioners if that clarification helps. <br />Commissioner Posson stated that it confounds his decision. <br />Chair Pearce asked Commissioner Posson if he wants to have more discussion on the <br />FAR as he seconded her motion. <br />Commissioner Posson stated that he is ready to vote. He added that when this does go to <br />Council, he hopes that the Council will look long and hard at that 25- percent and whether <br />that is equitable. He stated that if there are any residents that have heartburn with that <br />limit, they should speak out loud and clear to the Council. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, November 13, 2013 Page 39 of 50 <br />
