G. NEW BUSINESS:

 Commissioner Urda raised concern regarding the current appeal process for COA
 applications questioning whether the decision made by the HPC is being heard by
 the City Council during a request for appeal. Commission Urda discussed the idea of
 amending the current Ordinance to allow an HPC representative to attend the City
 Council meeting and provide an opening statement and rebuttal during discussion
 of any appeal request of a COA. Commissioner Urda also raised concern with a
 recently approved text amendment to Chapter 11 (Historic Preservation -
 requirements for a COA application for demolition), stating that an additional
 amendment should be made to the Code that requires the historical and
 architectural analysis be performed by an independent contractor versus by the
 applicant as currently required.


 Chairman Peterson agreed with Commissioner Urda, but also clarified that the City
 Council is provided with the Historic Preservation Commission meeting minutes.


 Staff clarified that in addition to the meeting minutes, the Commission's responses
 to the Factors for Consideration of the COA are included for any appeal request to
 the City Council.


 Howard stated the City Council representative present at the HPC meetings is the
 spokesperson for the HPC at the City Council meetings.


 Commissioner Fessler stated the Commission has the ability to discuss any
 concerns with the City Council directly.
