CCI / MSC Minutes

Feb.14, 2007

Peter Howison called the meeting together at 7:03 .

Those in attendance were Linda Ash, Darlene and Marv Beckman, Clare Brien, Mark Chandler, Ian Chun, Gary Darnielle, Dave Davis, Audrey and Ralph Farnsworth, Fuzzy Gates, Richard Koehler, Judy and Norman Martin, Marilyn Miller, Susie Navetta, Gerald Reavis, Gordon and Lori Robertson, Theresa and William Sathe, Troy Sathe, John Stead, Josie Ward, and Jerry Wasserburg,

Peter Howison read a statement from the May 11, 2006 Dunes City Council meeting concerning the formation of the CCI.  Gary Darnielle said, “The state recognizes the CCI” and “the CCI process should be looked at by the Council in March for balance”.  Jerry Wasserburg reminded everyone that the committee did their job in writing the new ordinances as directed by the City Council.  Meetings must go forward to complete the process of delivering the new ordinances to the Council by June 2007.  The Ordinances are the Erosion and Sediment Control, Phosphorus Reduction and the Stormwater Reduction. 

William Sathe and Norman Martin objected and said that the committee was not following the CCI rules.  Richard Koehler said the web site would be used to make the process more transparent and legal notice would come at least 24 hours in advance.  John Stead said, “A definite process should be designed to inform the citizens”.   Norman Martin wanted to work on the CIP.  The CCI was adjourned at 7:47 pm .

The MSC meeting was opened immediately after the adjournment.  

Peter Howison opened the meeting at 7:53 pm .

MSC members in attendance were Darlene and Marv Beckman, Mark Chandler, Ralph Farnsworth, Peter Howison, Richard Koehler, Marilyn Miller, Susie Navetta, John Stead, and Jerry Wasserburg.  Absent were Dave Bellemore, Johan Hogervorst, Sheldon Meyer and Karen Peck.

A motion was made to form a new sub-committee to finish the Erosion and Sediment Control Committee because the process had been slowed down by having the full CCI committee.  Those named were Dave Bellemore, Mark Chandler, Rick Cox, Gordon Robertson, and Jerry Wasserburg.  Jerry Wasserburg will chair the committee.  Ralph Farnsworth made a motion to accept the proposed committee and Marilyn Miller seconded the motion.  Motion passed.

Theresa Sathe, not a member of the MSC, objected to not being allowed to nominate someone.

Peter read from the Comprehensive Plan (Introduction):   Developers should be able to put the proper type of construction in the right place with the least damage to the environment.  New citizens maybe attracted by having some assurance of what their future surroundings will look like.  Residents who are already here should gain confidence that their city will not deteriorate as has been the case in so many unplanned communities.

Mark Chandler reported we still needed $4400 to finish the Stormwater Ordinance.  A new committee will be formed to go over this ordinance during the March City Council meeting.

Meeting Adjourned at 8:25 pm .

Respectfully submitted,

Susie Navetta,  CCI/MSC Secretary
