Minutes of November 6, 1980 A.S.A.C. (continued) ASAC-268
IIEL-1 BUSINESS:
�5. Forthcoming City Council meeting to assess various City committees/commissions.
The Committee was advised of this forthcoming meeting. The role of ASLC
Committee's value to the City was reaffirmed: In the interests of efficiency, it
was suggested that ASAC should have a design -related voice at a very early stage
of the application process. It was felt that the Planning Commission sometimes
extends beyond the conceptual land use issues, and that this causes conflict with
ASAC. The Committee wishes to review plans before they are "cast in concrete" at
the use permit stage - it was noted that several applicants have, in the past,
expressed a similar desire.
