The meeting was recessed to a Study Session regarding the role of the
Recreation Commission as it dovetails with the rst of the Commissions and the
Council. Somel•of the. comments were:
The Council requested that staff make note of Recreation Commission
recommendations when preparing staff reports on subjects coming to the City
Council so that the Council will know that they re from the Recreation
Commission .
The Recreation Commission also was asked to look at the placement of
potential Bike Paths and make recommendations to the Council as the stewards
of the City's recreation facilities . These facilities would include recreational
use of the. River and reporting to the Council or to the City Manager when
they feel something appears to require the City's attention.
It was the feeling of the Council that if a particular project will be a
permanent part of Peftaluma, the Recreation Commission should have an
opportunity to make their recommendations on it.
The Council asked for a member of the Recreation Commission to participate
on the Council's River-Walk and on the Corona-Ely Specific Plan
subcommittees. The Council also felt that the Recreation Commission should
be working more closely and directly with the Site Plan Architectural Review
Committee Members in connection with subjects within the scope of Recreation
Commission's responsibilities .
