TO: The Honorable City Council 11%
FROM: Mary K. Lindley, Director of Community Services irC
DATE: April 30, 1998
SUBJECT: Consider Ordinance No. , Amending Chapter 2.32, Parks and
Recreation Commission, and Chapter 2.36, Planning Commission
Background
On April 1, 1998, the City Council reviewed recommendations from the Parks and Recreation
Commission and Planning Commission regarding amendments to section of the City's Municipal
Code that address the commissions. The Council directed staff to draft an ordinance (Attachment
A) implementing its desired Code amendments to the Parks and Recreation Commissions duties
and responsibilities. Additionally, the Council directed that the appropriate Code sections
concerning the Parks and Recreation Commission and the Planning Commission be amended to
incorporate applicable provisions of Resolution No. 98- 1454, Council Policies.
Since the Council last discussed this item, staff identified an additional change for consideration.
Upon a second review, the April 1, 1998, approved language change for the Parks and Recreation
Commission's Duties and Responsibilities (2.32.090) proved to be duplicative of another existing
provision. The language approved by Council for provision "F" was " when directed by the City
Council, aid in coordinating the City's recreation and park services with the programs of the
governmental agencies and voluntary organizations ". Provision "A" on Attachment A holds the
same meaning. For this reason, staff proposes that language of provision "F ", as presented the
Council on April 1, be deleted.
Attachment B has been provided to illustrate the changes made to the Municipal Code in
legislative format.
Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council introduce Ordinance No. , amending Chapter 2.32,
Parks and Recreation Commission, and Chapter 2.36, Planning Commission for first reading.
