ACTION ITEMS
1. Action: Climate Action and Resiliency Plan Planning Commissioner Representative Selection
Planner Braudrick walked the Planning Commission through the history of the Climate
Resiliency Plan effort and updates related to the recently selected project consultant. Manager
Bolin introduced the efforts of Kick-off meeting and the recommendation that the Planning
Commission select a representative to attend any meetings with the consultant and stakeholder
groups directly, with the intention that the representative would relay the projects progress to the
Commission. She directed the Commission to the Tasks assigned to the consultant and the
number of touchpoints that the Planning Commission will have to review and provide input for
the task’s deliverables.
Chair Schwab asked if any Commissioners were interested in nominating a representative;
discussion followed with the Planning Commission and staff. Commissioners agreed that having
more than one representative would allow for a back-up if there are any scheduling conflicts
related to many of the meetings taking place during daytime work hours. Chair Schwab made a
motion to approve Commissioners Stanley and Ahuja as representatives of the Planning
Commission during the Climate Resiliency Plan process. Commissioner Young seconded, all
