Spencer,

In the interest of City staff time and resources, I hope you can convey to Mike Robinson that pre-app meetings are not intended to be the place to question staff’s interpretation of code or whether an application is required.

Instead, pre-apps are intended to be the place where city staff:

• * Guides an applicant through the process; and
• * Conveys how an applicant can be successful in completing the process in a timely way; and
• * Sets expectations,
• * Highlights specific code requirements that apply specifically to this particular property.

If Mike Robinson and Mr. Rogers are still questioning staff’s interpretation of code, we should tell them that the pre-app process isn’t the right venue for that. The applicant needs to follow Section 17-1.5.010 below:

City staff has already gathered with the applicant twice about code interpretation issues. We would prefer Mr. Robinson to discern if they are planning to proceed with a real pre-app or whether they are still questioning staff’s code interpretation.

Thanks for helping us convey this,

Alice

Hi Spencer:

As we just discussed by phone, you will reach out to attorney Mike Robinson to explain that the City believes the property needs to go through Site Design Review, as described in Chapter 17-4.2. More specifically, Section 17-4.2.020.A applies because we have no evidence that previous uses ever went through a Site Design Review land use process in the past.

Please let me know the result of your conversation with Mr. Robinson.

Thanks for all your help,

Alice Cannon

Alice,

I received a couple of emails from Mike Robinson this morning, and responded to both in one reply. I’m attaching all of three just to keep you in the loop heading into the pre-app. I’ll let you know if I hear anything else.
