Review of Planning Commission Meeting:
Sandy will report at the next meeting.
Review of site development/ fast track meetings:
Liz attended the meeting on December 30 which was an addition of a basement and pool
but when she visited the site there was no house yet constructed. Staff reported that the
permit on the house had expired but the house approval did not have to be redone. This
is unclear and will be investigated as to the current policy.
Old Business:
Size limitations and or increased setbacks will be discussed again at the next meeting
with Mayor Pro-tem O’Malley.
Job descriptions between the Environmental Design committee and the Open Space
committee are not overlapping.
New Business: We would like to meet with the Purissima Hills Water Board to discuss
water conservation ordinances.
We would like to discuss with the town to replace the Arastradero median with native
plantings.
Pat and Liz will represent the committee at the Brown Act meeting Jan 29.
We have received a new member application from Neela Shulka. She is to be appointed
at the next Council meeting January 15, 2004. We will wait one quarter before placing
another ad in the town newsletter. We were disappointed that the last ad was not printed
as written and will ask that in the future we be advised of editorial changes before
publication.
Meeting adjourned at 6:45 PM
