FUTURE COMMISSION/COUNCIL REPORTS <br /> Barnhart asked whether the Planning Commission would like to keep the council reports on future <br /> agendas. Barnhart noted the information is typically provided at the end of a long meeting and that <br /> perhaps that information could be shared through the minutes. Barnhart indicated Staff can either remove <br /> it from the agenda or keep it on. <br /> Landgraver stated a simple score card of the actions taken by the City Council on the planning items <br /> would be easy to follow. Landgraver stated another option would be to simply highlight the items that <br /> were not approved by the Planning Commission and the rationale. <br /> Barnhart indicated he can forward that request on to the City Administrator. Barnhart stated the purpose <br /> of the Council representative is to provide a basic background on the reasons for approval or denial and <br /> that Staff could perhaps condense the planning commission comments into a short memorandum. <br /> Barnhart stated if that is done, it might not be necessary for someone from the Planning Commission to <br /> attend the council meeting. <br /> Lemke stated he would like that but that in his view it is good to have a representative there. <br /> Landgraver indicated in his view it is good for the commissioners to be there to answer questions. <br /> Schoenzeit stated a summary on the decision discrepancies between the Planning Commission and <br /> Council would be very valuable to have. <br /> Barnhart asked if the Commissioners would like the mayor to call on them to offer any report they might <br /> want to give. <br /> It was the consensus of the Planning Commission to have the mayor call on them. <br /> 14.
