The City Manager gave a brief presentation on the timeframe for Council to adopt, by November 1,
1998, the Comprehensive Plan that was returned from Department of Community Affairs with
recommended amendments, and then to adopt within one year from that date the revised Land
Development regulations. He explained that, as a result ofdiscnssions with Les Solin, Solin and
Associates, and meetings with staff, this draft of the proposed Land Development Code may require
amendment to meet certain criteria, and may not include certain Land Planning Agency
recommendations or ordinances passed by Council last year. He recommended that the City Council
utilize the services of Solin and Associates, Inc. to review the document, recommend on what
approach to follow, and if Council agrees, to modify the document in accordance with their input and
required criteria. He distributed a fax proposal from Mr. Solin received this afternoon.
Following a lengthy discussion on the proper procedure to follow, and agreement that Mr. Solin meet
with Council as a group rather than individually, it was the consensus of City Council to authorize
the City Manager to negotiate an agreement with Mr. Solin and bring it back to them at the August
12, 1998 regular meeting if possible. It was decided to review any additional LPA recommendations
during the review &the proposed Land Development Code. The City Manager said it will be
important to have an attorney present during these workshops.
