There was direction given at this meeting and afterwards from staff. This direction included the following:
* The tentative timeline targeting Planning Commission action by October 2017 seemed reasonable to the Planning Commission.
* The applicant noted that FEMA approved the conditional letter of map revision (CLOMR). This CLOMR has been reviewed by the Town Engineer. A copy of this FEMA review has been attached under New - Updated Material.

This material has not been submitted. It will be reviewed...
