Mr. Schwartz requested a summary of the Commissioners’ comments and noted a split on east versus west as well as style to some extent. Commissioner Blank noted that it was rare for the Planning Commission to vote unanimously on all items in a workshop and noted that minutes were very detailed and would contain the necessary information. He encouraged the applicant to work with staff, who are very good at summarizing the Commissioners’ comments. Ms. Hyde expressed concern about delivery trucks for the businesses, generating congestion and blocking the street. Otherwise, she liked the idea. No action was taken. 2. APPROVAL OF MINUTES a. November 29, 2006 Chairperson Fox noted that the first sentence of paragraph 2 on page 3 should be modified to read as follows: “In response to With respect to an inquiry by Acting Chairperson Fox regarding a request from a resident who was unable to attend the meeting to videotape this hearing, Acting Chairperson Fox requested that Ms. Decker clarify Mr. Iserson’s response that had been made prior to the meeting that the meeting could not be videotaped.” Chairperson Fox wished to clarify that it was not her request to videotape the meeting. She would like the following language to be placed at the end of the paragraph: “Ms. Decker indicated that the neighbors could request to listen to the audiotapes.” Chairperson Fox believed there were some questions after Mr. Otto presented the staff report and requested that the following language be added after the staff presentation on page 3: “Acting Chairperson Fox noted that the 1998 Master Plan approved by Council had the addition of two parking lots to accompany the gym and meeting room building. She asked whether staff had actually visited St. Elizabeth Seton to determine the parking situation during the Sunday afternoon services and observed it themselves. She indicated that she had information that the parking lot was filled during services and that parking in the surrounding commercial properties was currently done. Mr. Otto indicated that staff had not actually visited the site during peak usage.” Chairperson Fox requested that the following language be added after the staff presentation on page 3: “Acting Chairperson Fox asked a question to clarify the approval process regarding Stoneridge Drive modifications. She indicated that it was her understanding that proposing that a street be changed from no parking to restricted parking requires a change to the Municipal Code, thus requiring a resolution from the City Council. She indicated that in the past, staff had indicated that this was the case, including a recent hearing where staff had proposed to increase speed limits on various roads in town several years ago.” She believed that it was Mr. Iserson, not Mr. Otto, who replied that the parking status of roads did not require City Council action.
