F, <br />BOOK M PAGE 77 <br />13.C.2. COMMISSIONER MRCHT - CULTURAL ELEMENT FOR <br />COMPREHENSIVE PLAN <br />Commissioner Macht asked for the Board's concurrence to direct staff to work on a <br />Cultural Element for inclusion in the Comprehensive Plan which the late Commissioner <br />Carolyn Eggert had moved toward a few years ago. Specifics are needed by staff. <br />Community Development Director Robert M. Keating stated that several years ago <br />Commissioner Eggert had indicated that she wanted staff to address cultural activities in the <br />Comprehensive Plan and, at that time, there were several policies that were added to the <br />Recreation/Open Space Element. Commissioner Macht had suggested it might be more <br />appropriate if the County had a separate Cultural Element. He asked the Board to give staff <br />direction to research and initiate drafting of that element. Staff would then initiate an <br />amendment of the Comprehensive Plan during the July window for Comprehensive Plan <br />amendments. <br />Commissioner Macht recounted some of the benefits brought to the community <br />because of cultural activities and Vice Chairman Grin concurred that cultural activities <br />definitely enhance our community. <br />The Chairman stated there was CONSENSUS to direct staff to work on a Cultural <br />Element for the Comprehensive Plan. <br />M.A. EMERGENCY SERVICES DISTRICT <br />The Chairman announced that following the meeting, the Commissioners would sit <br />as the Board of Commissioners of the Emergency Services District. Those Minutes are being <br />prepared separately. <br />April 11, 2000 <br />68 <br />
