In the Race
Now, here, you see, it takes all the blogging I can do to keep in the same place.
If I want to get somewhere else, I must blog twice as fast as that!
You see, I'm in

Common Council President Steve Taylor brought forward Item G8 Ordinance to amend the Unified Development Ordinance to provide for Plan Commission review and recommendation and Common Council review and approval of site plans.
During Citizen Comment Period, two citizens, Jon Zawacki and Ed Holpfer, commented on this item. Zawacki was in favor and Holpfer was against.
I have included their comments in the first Podcasts.
These are followed by Council President Taylor introducing Item G8 to amend the UDO and his concern that the Plan Commission does not understand the quality of development that should be coming into Franklin and possibly the Council should be more responsible and then Alderman Olson with a comment regarding architecture.
Next, Mayor Taylor's comment on the issue where he voices opposition and believes this would be a disservice to the Plan Commission and closing with Council President Taylor withdrawing his motion, with some additional comment by Alderman Olson.
As you may have heard, there are plans in the works for a policy review meeting with the Plan Commission to discuss improving the current situation.
