| 1 | | | Discussion Item | Schedule Special Meetings to Review Marijuana Business License Applications.
The Town has received many applications for the new Marijuana Business Licensing Ordinance. Due to the enormity of reviewing the applications the task has been broken into components. The first two areas to be reviewed for compliance will be
a. Adult-Use (7 Applications - 2 Licenses available)
b. Medical Retail Store (9 Applications - 9 Licenses grandfathered)
These will be reviewed for submission compliance, with notices to applicants for any requested data or clarifications. The anticipated review date is September 15th , at a Special Council Meeting. All submissions (applications) would be available to the Council by August 28th for your review. Councilors would return scoring by September 11th, and the summary by applicants and tallies would be discussed by the Council at the meeting of September 15th.
The remainder of the applications could be addressed at a regular council meeting, potentially later in September or early October. | | |

| 1 | | | Discussion Item | Modifying the Elected Officials Compensation Ordinance.
Currently the Town budgets $1,400/Councilor for meeting. After reviewing this ordinance, I am recommending that §2-4 Compensation be amended. “Elected officials shall be compensated from the approved budgetary allocation on a quarterly basis (every three months).” From the Manager’s perspective, Councilors work basically 24/7 with calls, meetings, events regional commitments, etc., so budgeted compensation should be paid out quarterly, not just on meetings attended. Currently staff tracks meeting and attendance for a quarterly payment. This is an inefficient use of staff time. | | |
