He noted that new federal legislation (AB 3636) concerning telecommunication in infrastructure, because of the superhighway concept, will allow all information systems companies to cut into city streets without city review or franchise.

Asked for clarification on the Brown Act definition of a meeting. City Attorney, Bobak, noted that the new conditions of the Brown Act become effective April 1, 1994 and since the Act states that the Commission may take no action on items not included on the agenda she reminded the Commissioners to contact the Planning Secretary with items for the Commissioner comment section so that they may be added to the next agenda. With respect to discussions between various members, she stated that it is not considered a meeting where one member speaks with another, unless several members are involved and collective decisions are made.

Attorney Bobak stated that a copy of the conditions of the Brown Act will be distributed to each of the Commissioners.
