To prevent Planning Staff <br /> review of Sketch Plans from being considered a permanent <br /> approval , a revision of the regulations is proposed . <br /> The proposed revision places a time limit of one ( 1 ) year on <br /> the validity of the Planning Staff Sketch Plan comments and <br /> clarifies language in the regulations regarding the <br /> significance of the comments. <br /> A public hearing on the proposed amendment was held on June <br /> 1 , 1987 . No comments were received on the proposal . <br /> The Planning Board met on June 15, 1987 to make its recom- <br /> mendation on the proposal . <br /> The Planning Staff recommends approval of the proposed <br /> amendment. <br /> RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends approval of the amendment as recom- <br /> mended by the Planning Board with the additional requirement <br /> that the effective date of the amendment be July 6, 1987 . <br />
