Item 3

Items for Discussion:

A.     

Discuss Town Center Review Commission Bylaws

Discussion about the draft TCRC By-laws.  Mr. Nicholas informed the TCRC that the Town Attorney’s Office reviewed the draft and recommended minor revisions to the sections concerning membership, attendance and rules of procedure.  Mr. Nicholas noted that the revisions will be added to the final version.  

Mr. Harned suggested adding text from the LDO regarding the purpose/responsibility of the TCRC and the review procedure.  The Commission agreed to have the text incorporated into the final version.

Discussion about what the intent of the TCRC is with respect to taking public comment on applications being reviewed.  Question raised as to whether or not taking input expands the authority of TCRC.  

TCRC members asked staff if possible to notify members of projects further in advance of the timeframe currently followed.  

Members agreed to meet on December 13 and asked staff to prepare a revised draft of the By-laws for review at that time.

 B.

Select a Town Center Review Commission Representative to participate in Downtown Art Project 

The PAAB liaison forwarded a request to the TCRC for a representative to serve on a sub-committee of the PAAB that will review proposals pertaining to the public art aspect of the Downtown Cary Streetscape Project.
