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 />
