5. POLICY BOARD BUSINESS <br /> 5.01: Review of Draft Statement of Purpose and Scope of Work <br /> City Planner Anderson presented the staff report. <br /> Board Member Bentz arrived at 6:36 p.m. <br /> City Planner Anderson reviewed the Draft Statement of Purpose and provided example items <br /> that would be reviewed by the Board through the process proposed, under the existing <br /> framework. He explained that a land use application could be brought forward before the EPB <br /> prior to the review by the Planning Commission, with the recommendations from those Boards <br /> moving forward to the City Council. He stated that the intent is to move forward with this <br /> process for the review of land use applications for a one -year period, noting that a review would <br /> then be completed to determine if any amendments are necessary before formalizing this process. <br /> He advised that the EPB would also be involved with the Comprehensive Plan, education, <br /> emerging issues, and review of the Zoning Code. He stated that this process will make the Board <br /> more proactive and able to provide additional input. He explained that this Statement of Purpose <br /> and duties had been composed based on the input received at the previous meeting and asked for <br /> feedback. <br /> Board Member Hiatt questioned if the Board schedule would interfere with the 60 -day review <br /> deadline for land use applications. <br /> City Planner Anderson explained that land use applications are required 30 days before the next <br /> Planning Commission meeting, which would ensure that the Board would meet prior to the <br /> scheduled Planning Commission meeting. He noted that staff thoroughly discussed that aspect to <br /> ensure that the actions could occur within the review period. <br /> Board Member Hiatt stated that he appreciates the ability to be involved in the review process <br /> and simply wanted to ensure that this review opportunity would not interfere with the review <br /> timeline for applicants. <br /> City Planner Anderson noted that the Board would review and provide feedback on natural <br /> resource aspects of applications. <br /> Board Member Valentine commended staff for the creation of the document and also appreciated <br /> the ability to be more involved. <br /> City Planner Anderson explained that this document is meant to clarify how the Board serves the <br /> - community and to provide a framework for the intent and responsibility of the Board. He <br /> encouraged all the Board Members to attend the future City Council Work Session at which this <br /> information will be presented and discussed. <br /> Motion by Board Member Valentine and seconded by Board Member Bernard to forward the <br /> Draft Statement of Purpose to a future City Council Work Session for review with the City <br /> Council. <br /> Environmental Policy Board / January 5, 2015 <br /> Page 2 of 6 <br />
