Minutes May 12, 2000CITY OF DENTON CITY COUNCIL MINUTES May 12, 2000 The Denton City Council held an Informational Briefing Session on Friday, May 12, 2000 at 11:30 a.m. in the Council Work Session Room at City Hall. PRESENT: Mayor Brock; Mayor Pro Tem Beasley; Council Members Durrance, and Kristoferson. ABSENT: Council Members Burroughs, Cochran, and Young. 1. The Council received a report and held a discussion regarding the progress of the Development Code Rewrite. Doug Powell, Director of Planning and Development, reviewed the progress of the Code Committee. He stated that there had not been a quorum of members at the last meeting and no formal business could be done. That would have an effect on the progress of the rewrite. Council discussed ways to get the members back to the committee. It was felt that there might be a need to revise the resolution that created the Committee in order to reduce the number of members needed for a quorum. Powell stated that it was not a legal requirement that the Committee review the Code and Council and the Planning and Zoning Commission could still proceed with the review. John Fregonese stated that the code was ready for initial review by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Other areas of public involvement could include a newsletter, an open house with information from staff, a drop-in center for information and the use of the Internet. Council requested a list of committee members, who appointed each member, attendance of the members and the schedule of future meetings. It was felt that the Council might be able to call the members who were not attending the meetings and urge them to complete the work of the Committee. With no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 12:45 p.m. ___________________________ EULINE BROCK, MAYOR CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS _______________________ JENNIFER WALTERS CITY SECRETARY CITY OF DENTON, TEXAS
