Jeff Sanders reviewed his email message, sent on June 21, 2015, to the Town and Village Clerks. The Town Planning Commission and Town Board received copies for tonight’s meeting. This email provided a meeting timetable for July through November.
At the July meeting, each municipality will have a meeting alone. We are to review chapters 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 10. We can review 1-3. The maps are to be relatively accurate.
After the July meeting we are to forward all the requested revisions to Jeff. He will revise the chapters for the joint August meeting.
August will be the last joint meeting. We should have a draft of the future land use map. This is an additional meeting from the original proposal.
Chapter 3 – Demographics – West brought up that the Village statistics is very broad regarding the trends over time and the market trade analysis. Jeff informed us that the County data list is not available at the local level.
a. Discussion with the previously reviewed Chapter 9: Current Land Use and Chapter 10: Future Land Use, and the Current and Future Land Use Mapping – If the Future Land Use Map has a conflict with the Current Land Use Map, it must be changed (page 14). The comprehensive plan must be amended. At the July meeting (page 15), we are to highlight to keep the information and ink out to delete.
b. Presentation and discussion with Chapter 11: Intergovernmental Cooperation including agreements with the Village of Black Creek and Chapter 12: Implementation –
List of Intergovernmental Agreements will need to be included with Chapter 11. Jeff recommended that we take extra time when reviewing Chapter 12. Page 3, keep or delete regarding the “we will”/”we may” statements.
