Brief title for your suggestion

A process for better-informed and less capricious recommendations to the City

What is the problem you'd like the Committee to address?

I decision making process that can be ill informed and capricious

What general or specific changes do you propose?

Among other things, the revisions to the bylaws of the CPA, DPR etc. should do the following:
1. Require that the agenda for a meeting include attachments for or links to presentations, comments etc.
2. Clarify the process for pulling an item from the consent agenda.
3. Strengthen the language concerning the content of the minutes of CPA, DPR etc. meetings so there is no question that the minutes will include summaries of the comments by all who speak at a meeting.
4. Ensure the minutes or the CPA, DPR etc. identify and have links to the documents, which were used in making recommendations to the City.
5. Require that the minutes for a meeting include attachments for or links to presentations, comments, recording etc.
6. Require or at least facilitate the posting of information from the applicants and commenters to the LJCPA website at least X days before a scheduled CPA, DPR etc. meeting.
7. Require that presentations prepared for a meeting be available on the LJCPA website no later than X days after the meeting.
8. Allow no more than X individuals from the development sector as CPA trustees or on the DPR etc. where that sector includes developers, architects and their employees.
9. Require the CPA, DPR etc. to each prepare and use a checklist of what it is supposed to do and not do when reviewing a development permit, where the checklist: 1) makes it explicit that the principal role of each committee is to determine whether a proposed development complies with the current LJPDO and other relevant current parts of the SDMC, 2) includes at least references to the relevant parts of both, 3) prohibits a recommendation to approve a project if there is insufficient information to determine the project complies with the fundamental elements of either the LJPDO and other relevant parts of the SDMC, and 4) prohibits ignoring such fundamental elements because that had been done previously.
The CPA should consider some of these proposed elements for a checklist for inclusion in the bylaws if the checklist is not included in the bylaws.
10. Require at least minimal internet (e.g., Zoom) access to the meetings.
11. Ensure consistency among the bylaws of the CPA, DPR etc.
12. Ensure there is an open process for revising the bylaws, which provides adequate time for CPA trustees and members and the public to understand and comment on any proposed changes before the CPA acts on them.
13. Ensure there are recordings (audio or audio and visual) of all meetings and that there is a link to each recording on the LJCPA website.
14. Address conflicts of interest with policies, not just projects.
15. With respect to LJPDO compliance issues, ensure the CPA defers to the PDO Committee, not the DPR Committee.
16. Ensure that the CPA, DPR etc. have the info required to make a well-informed recommendation to the City before making a recommendation.

How do your proposed changes address the problem?

My proposed changes address the problems very well by getting to the root of the problems.

Brief title for your suggestion

Update Election and Nominating Process; Term limits for joint committees term limits

What is the problem you'd like the Committee to address?

President can assign a Nominating Committee but the committee should rotate to create diversity and reach to new community members. Having the same committee leaders does not create a diverse pool of candidates. Allow for mid-year vacancies to be filled via a self nomination process (allow self nomination forms to be sent to nominating chair on an ongoing basis.)

What general or specific changes do you propose?

Term limits for committee chairs/members that follow the same term limit guidelines as CPA's term limits. Update voting methods; allow for electronic voting.

How do your proposed changes address the problem?

Term limits allow for greater participation from the community.

Brief title for your suggestion

Trustee & Subcommittee Meeting Times

What is the problem you'd like the Committee to address?

Meeting times and length

What general or specific changes do you propose?

To increase participation and access to meetings I would encourage all LJCPA meetings (Trustee and subcommittee) to be no earlier than 6pm so as to allow for working persons to attend. Also I would highly recommend having an end time to each meeting allowing for better time management during a meeting and also enabling people to plan better.

How do your proposed changes address the problem?

Allows for greater participation perhaps from a demographic that we are not currently reaching, working folks!
