results of the goal Community Appearance and Design # 1. It formulates a program of themes and
elements that could be incorporated into design guidelines. His interest has to do with upgrades to
streetscapes and buildings with newer and better quality buildings replacing aging properties when they
deteriorate. He also thinks the board should review projects for compliance with the South College
Corridor Plan and make sure the Plan is fully implemented.
Schumm said in reviewing the agenda, he saw the board had sought feedback to the Addition of
Permitted Use (APU) at their June 20 hearing. He said his family home was impacted by the APU
process on the southeast corner of Drake and Lemay. He thinks the process puts citizens at a huge
disadvantage. He said he would rate the APU process at a 'C'.
Schumm said his last comment has to do with citizen participation process. He thinks it's
disadvantageous to citizens who oppose a development proposal. He thinks they are not given time for
a coherent argument or time for rebuttal whereas staff and applicants are allowed time to respond to
citizen comments. He thinks the board needs to give citizens the last word — a few extra minutes to
overcome the advantages a developer has in being able to say whatever they want thinking there would
be no rebuttal.
Chair Smith said Mr. Schumm's comments have been duly noted. The board would have an interest in
reviewing the South College Corridor Plan implementation at a work session. He said the board is in the
process of reviewing both APU and citizen participation.

Chair Smith provided background on the board's role and what the audience could expect as to the order
of business. He described the following processes:
• Citizen Participation is an opportunity for citizens to address the board on non agenda related
topics.
• Consent agenda items are considered items which have no known opposition. They are
approved collectively at the beginning of the meeting unless a board member, staff or audience
member requests an item is pulled and moved to the discussion agenda.
• Discussion agenda items will include an applicant presentation, a staff presentation, and public
comment.
• At the time of public comment, he asked that you come to the podium, state your name and
address for the record, and sign -in. He asked that the speaker clearly state their position. He
encouraged speakers to share comments relevant to the topic under discussion.
• Responses by applicant and staff will follow public comment.
• The board will deliberate and reach a decision once a motion has been made and a vote taken.
• He will begin each new item with a description of the development type being considered. The
board will do their best not to use acronyms or jargon.
Agenda Review
Director Laurie Kadrich reviewed the agenda. She noted Magnum Motors of Loveland Final Plan is a
consent item. If anyone in the audience is here to speak to that item, she recommended they make their
interest known to the Chair when asked otherwise the consent item will move forward without a staff
presentation or any public comment.

update on the implementation status (where we are and where we need to go). He'd like to know the
