Dauber reported that Jim Abraham, Marjorie Evans and Ken Schroeder had agreed to serve on an airport noise task force committee with Jim serving as the chairman. This committee would keep the Council advised on airport noise issues and recommend actions that the Council should take. 7.2 Report from subcommittee (Casey and Dauber) on review of design guidelines (continued from the July 1, 1999 Council Meeting) Dauber reported that she and Councilmember Casey,the Design Guidelines Subcommittee,had met and while in agreement on some issues,needed Council direction on what architectural features were limited by the fast track ordinance. The fast track ordinance referred to four specific design elements that the site development authority was no longer authorized to regulate: architectural style, chimneys, window treatment and skylights. The question under discussion was what other architectural design features should be on the list. Casey believed the issue was how the design guidelines fit in with the fast track ordinance. She recommended a joint meeting of the Council and Planning Commission in September to discuss this issue. She believed it would help to have another month of experience in dealing with the implementation of the fast track ordinance. Siegel and Johnson believed that they should see how this fast track ordinance works for a while. They noted that rewriting the design guidelines would be a major task. Finn did not believe design guidelines should be used at all. MOTION SECONDED AND CARRIED: Moved by Dauber, seconded by Siegel and passed by the following roll call vote to schedule a joint meeting of the Council and Commission in September to discuss this issue and in the meantime to limit the design guidelines to those specifically stated in the ordinance.
