Reports from Ad Hoc Committess : <br /> J. STAFF REPORTS: <br /> 1 . City Manager: <br /> a) Town Land Use Voting Policy <br /> The City Manager referred to his staff report dated 1/30/87 which <br /> noted that at an earlier meeting it had been suggested that a Town <br /> Land Use Voting Policy be established that would use the Town or- <br /> dinance standard for notices to affected property owners (those within <br /> 300 ' ) as a minimum standard to judge if a Councilmember or Commis- <br /> sioner should abstain from participating in a land use decision be- <br /> cause of the high potential for at least the appearance of a conflict <br /> of interest. If Council determined this was the action they wished to <br /> take, it was recommended that they direct staff to prepare a policy <br /> statement for consideration of approval at a later meeting. <br /> -5- <br />
