we intended to. So there's probably going to be a check at some point to see if it's actually accomplishing the goal. Commissioner Balch: So on that note, if you find that it's catching too many or not catching enough, how do you amend this given you're asking for a zoning amendment, right? Is there flexibility in how you've written it that you can exclude more? Beaudin: We'll come back. It'll be a public hearing process and we'll probably call it "Zoning Ordinance Cleanup Number 1" and that's just what happens when you take something 30+ years old that really hasn't been comprehensively looked at in a period of time. I was telling staff that when I've done this in other communities that that is the process, and you probably pick a date frankly as staff from the day it's adopted and you say six months from now we're going to evaluate what we've seen so far and then you'll do it again in six months and probably again in another six months. And we may be back with you in six months or 12, but I can guarantee you that within the first year we'll be back with a list of things we need to make further adjustments to. Commissioner Brown: What was the justification for the 10 days for minors given that it sounds like you're shortening something that could say take a month or two months? You've shortened it down to 10 days, is that enough? My concern is people go away for a week and it takes three days to get the mail, etc., etc. So 10 days to me is a little short. I mean you're drastically improving it for people. You lower the cost of the fee which is great and you're going from months down to 10 days which seems a little short. Was there a justification for the 10 days or is that up for discussion? Bonn: It's certainly up for discussion. The thought process there is that it's sort of a middle point. So we have some administrative processes that require a seven day noticing period so it's even shorter than the 10 -day, and the other factor is the appeal period on the tail end and on the front end, the time it takes for staff to be able to send out the notices. We typically have to work with applicants a little bit before we're prepared to send out the notice to surrounding neighbors so it's not necessarily day one. I mean, if it's a great, clean, perfect application and it has everything we need then we can send the notices out on day one, but what happens more often than not is that there's something that needs to get clarified or we have to work through some topics of discussion and it's a little bit of time before that notice can go out. So like I said, it's certainly up for discussion. It was sort of maybe the middle ground. The minor modification process that we have now is a 10 day noticing process. Commissioner Brown: Okay. Commissioner Balch: Could you repeat that? The zoning administrator actions are a 10 day process right now, right? The intended notice period? Bonn: So for a PUD where's somebody is proposing to modify the PUD, we call it a PUD Minor Modification. The notification for that is a 10 day noticing. Commissioner Balch: Sorry. I misheard, but thank you PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, August 31, 2016 Page 34 of 58
