Building Permit and Business License procedures and will be
checking with the Commissioners to determine when those
should be scheduled.
COMMISSION CONCERNS
Thompson Requested that at a future meeting the Commission could get an
overview of the residential architectural guidelines in Old Town
Tustin to assist in understanding what type of action or request of
the City Council could be made for developing the commercial
guidelines in a similar venue.
Director Indicated that staff could report back on that issue.
Thompson Indicated he would be attending the Mayor's Inaugural Dinner
and looks forward to that event at the Tustin Golf Course and to
seeing everyone there.
Kozak Stated that he, too, would like to make a similar request to
Commissioner Thompson's for staff to bring information that
would assist the Commission in making a request or
recommendation to the City Council so that the issue could be
considered in the budget process.
Noted he is looking forward to the Groundbreaking for the new
Tustin Library on February 12, 2008.
Thanked the Recording Secretary for providing the Commission
with the City 2008 calendar.
Murray Commended staff for their continued hard work; the amount of
information, research, and documentation that is provided has
been very helpful in the Commission's decisions.
Noted that Commissioner Nielsen was being missed this evening
and suggested he take a look at the meeting upon his return.

Murray continued Added that he is also looking forward to the Library Ground-
breaking and the Mayor's Inaugural Dinner.
Puckett Assured everyone that the Mayor's Inaugural Dinner will be quite
an event; those who were there last year may remember the
thorough roasting of Mayor Bone; there will be some
repercussions from that and Mayor Amante will receive his due;
the menu is always great, the entertainment is great--the
orchestra from Beckman High School; the event is sponsored by
the Tustin Community Foundation.
Thanked Linda Jennings again for the Carol Jordan book that
was presented to each of the Planning Commissioners at the last
meeting; he and his wife are enjoying the book very much and
intend to purchase copies as gifts.
Noted there was a ribbon-cutting last week for The Cravery in
The District; he was not able to attend, but he did have lunch
there on Saturday; the concept came from South Africa and he
also observed it when he was in Australia--pot pies; this is a
great restaurant; he encouraged everyone to visit.
Stated the meeting should be adjourned in the memory of Dr.
Martin Luther King, whose birthday was observed yesterday.
Murray Added that he would like to also recognize George Stewart, a
very important member of the Tustin community.
In Memory Of
Dr. Martin Luther King
