The meeting <br />was commenced with a quorum of four members, and progressed steadily until the last agenda <br />• item, the Baywind Church application, commenced at 9:15. Gaffron indicated one of the <br />commissioners at the beginning of that item indicated that she would need to leave at 10:00 <br />o'clock, which left 45 minutes for the Planning Commission to review this item. Acting Chair <br />Smith indicated to the Applicants that once their quorum was' ost, they would be unable to take <br />any action on the application and attempted to review the app ":ration completely in the time <br />allowed. <br />�J <br />Gaffron stated the Planning Commission was unable to comp'.:te their review in the time allowed <br />and the item was declared effectively tabled once their quoru-- was lost. The Applicants <br />indicated to Staff and to the Planning Commission that it was a problem to have their application <br />tabled for a month, and it was suggested that the Council revi :-.v this item on June 11`h, which is <br />the request before the Council tonight. <br />Gaffron stated this is an issue that the Planning Commission r ad discussed for approximately 45 <br />minutes without coming to a decision, and it is up to the Cou=1 whether any additional review is <br />necessary by the Planning Commission. <br />Mayor Peterson apologized to the Baywind Christian Church for what happened at the Planning <br />Commission meeting. Peterson inquired whether a special Planning Commission meeting could <br />be held to discuss this item prior to the upcoming City Counci' meeting. <br />Gaffron stated it has been difficult to have a quorum on the Planning Commission this year, and <br />in his view he is doubtful whether a quorum could be reached on a day other than the designated <br />Planning Commission meeting day. <br />PAGE 13 <br />
