For the betterment of the DRB -
Discussion followed on the future of the DRB with the change in the zoning and planning
jurisdictions and the need for clear PUD guidelines from the applicant.
Chairperson Walker moved that Mr. Sorenson draft a letter to the Commission on the need for
the DRB. In response to Mr. Sorenson's request for ideas, Mr. Glenn suggested listing the
positives moves the Board has made and what would have happened if the Board hadn't reviewed
certain projects. Other ideas were the improvements to the corridors brought about by DRB
review, a professional Board that gives advice that would have to be paid for if done by
consultants, the education of the public, and larger projects are so big that consultants may not
have a handle on the design issues. Planner Skelton noted the DRB also is a protection for the
established neighborhoods. Mr. Sorenson noted that the Board is a help to architects who have
been bullied by a developer into presenting a bad design. Chairperson Walker noted there are
better open space and trails through projects than what were proposed. Discussion followed on
the loopholes in the code and the City's PUD guidelines.
ITEM 5. ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
