He stated that staff is in the process of designing the outreach program, which is anticipated to occur during the month of September, and the Code text will be simple and brought forward for consideration as soon as October or shortly thereafter. View Easements in the City Chair Blank noted the question of view easements often comes up. He stated that they are relatively rare in the City and inquired if the Planning Division would know which developments have view easements in the City, or would it be something that could be mapped. Commissioner Olson stated that they are recorded, and Ms. Decker confirmed that view easements that have come to the Planning Commission with other projects are recorded on Tract Maps. She explained that because each PUD has a tract map, research can certainly be done, but it would be a fairly broad task for staff to do for all subdivisions within the City. 8.
