STAFF REPORT
DATE: December 30, 1997
TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
FROM: Abra E. Home, AICP, Senior Planner �JPL
THROUGH: Russell B. Wagner, AICP, Director of Planning /
SUBJECT: Appointing Advisory Group to Review the Evaluation and Appraisal Report
ISSUE:
Who should the Mayor and City Commission select to comprise the new "representative
advisory group"?
BACKGROUND:
Each city and county in Florida is required to provide opportunities for public participation during
the preparation of its Evaluation and Appraisal Report. The purpose of the public participation
procedures is to outline how citizens and business owners will be involved in the reviewing the
Comprehensive Plan. On December 16, 1997, the City Commission adopted the revised public
participation procedures (Resolution 97-16). These procedures brought into existence the
"representative advisory group" whose members will be selected by the City Commission on
January 6, 1998.
Members of the "representative advisory group"will be expected to attend and prepare for each
Planning and Zoning Commission meeting regarding the Evaluation and Appraisal Report.
Staff anticipates a maximum of two Planning and Zoning Commission meetings per month
between January 1998 and June 1998. Each member will be given copies of draft reports for
review and will participate in all workshops and public hearings regarding the Evaluation and
Appraisal Report.

DISCUSSION:
While the City Commission is responsible for selecting the final members of the "representative
advisory group", nominations have been supplied by the Local Planning Agency and individual
City Commissioners. Staff has contacted these people to confirm their interest in participating.
Those persons who could not be contacted or who were not interested in participating have not
been listed in the attached table. The attached table indicates those persons who have agreed
to participate as members of the "representative advisory group" and they have been told that
they may not be appointed. Staff will notify the selected members of the "representative
advisory group" once they have been chosen from the attached list.
This group should be small enough to encourage participation from each member of the
"representative advisory group" and large enough to be considered representative of the entire
City. For instance, if the City appointed 15 members and we assumed that each person might
speak for ten minutes, then the public participation portion of the meeting would last for two and
a half hours. Accordingly, staff is recommending that the City Commission select between five
and seven members.
PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
On December 9, 1997, the Planning and Zoning Commission, acting as the Local Planning
Agency, suggested a list of people to serve on the "representative advisory group." Staff has
confirmed that four of the people nominated by the Planning and Zoning Commission are
interested in serving on the "representative advisory group" and their names are included on
the attached Table of Nominees.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff respectfully requests that the City Commission select between five and seven members to
comprise the new"representative advisory group".
