If the side yard setbacks are included then it is hard to meet the 75% <br />25 <br />requirement. Will be submitting written testimony for the next meeting <br />26 <br />ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS <br />27 <br />Minutes of the Meeting of January 26, 2011 were circulated. Marni Herkes motioned to approve <br />28 <br />and Bob Ward seconded. Minor corrections requested and then unanimous approval given. <br />29 <br />The Planning Department has had to limit the Action Committee to meet every other month due <br />30 <br />to staff shortages and budget constraints. With the April meeting the meetings will be held on the <br />31 <br />“even” months for the rest of the year (April, June, August, October, December). The Sub- <br />32 <br />Committees are allowed to continue to meet as often as necessary to continue to work on projects <br />33 <br />and programs. There was discussion for the December Meeting to be held in November and for <br />34 <br />the possibility of longer meetings (and the hours of start and end). Both of those requests have <br />35 <br />been given approval by the Planning Department however the Action Committee chose to “table” <br />36 <br />the discussion for future action. <br />37 <br />NEW BUSINESS <br />38 <br />1.
