committee formed for a specific project could be helpful to
them, and they would like to see more public involvement and
awareness. The Commission unanimously agreed that
Commissioners Crockatt and Arambula will work with staff in
forming guidelines for an advisory committee.

this item. Staff felt Commission should recommend to City
Council a concrete identification sign for Peach Hill Park
