Yeas: Bullock, Kepple, Litten, O'Malley, Neff, Shachner, Rader <br /> Nays: none <br /> Motion passed. Resolution amended. <br /> Council and the administration discussed the potential of having an administrative review of <br /> applications in lieu of Planning Commission review. Ms. Swallow remarked that this would not <br /> be recommended but that it would be appropriate to have an administrative review in lieu of <br /> Architecture Board of Review, as was suggested by Planning Commission. <br /> Council and the administration discussed what kinds of projects would need approval. Ms. <br /> Swallow clarified that sliding doors opening to the outside must be approved through the outdoor <br /> dining regulations because they potentially impact the surrounding area. She stated that Planning <br /> Commission may feel comfortable approving such projects without ABR review if given the <br /> authority by Council to do so. <br /> Motion by Councilmember Shachner, seconded by Councilmember Bullock to add a new <br /> Section 10 and renumber everything accordingly to read: <br /> "All plans shall be reviewed administratively unless the Planning Commission specifies that the plan <br /> should be reviewed by the Architectural Board of Review." <br /> Discussion: Acting Director Milius mentioned that the Planning Commission recommended the <br /> above language with also a reference to the existing Outdoor Dining Guidelines in order to <br /> provide some direction and standards. She clarified that ARB would review designs and <br /> materials. <br /> A roll call vote was taken as follows: <br /> Yeas: Bullock, Kepple, Litten, O'Malley, Neff, Shachner, Rader <br /> Nays: none <br /> Motion passed. <br /> President O'Malley expressed his preference to not include parklets in the resolution at this time <br /> without having fully considered all the implications. He expressed commitment to finding a way <br /> to include parklets after more research and discussion. He stated that Council should not hand off <br /> the resolution with parklets included and make Planning Commission grapple with the <br /> ramifications. <br /> Councilmember Kepple expressed interest in parklets and keeping them in the resolution as a <br /> signal that they are something Council is interested in. She expressed doubt that including them <br /> in the resolution will result in a"free for all." <br /> 5 <br />
