The Director of Public Works stated that these were not considered to be controversial applications and had been heard by the Planning Commission sitting as the Site Development Committee. For these meetings staff reports were not prepared. Council did not concur and believed major remodels should be heard by the full Planning Commission. May 15, 1991 2
