In March of this year, after several months of review with Mr. Schwartz of the Annexation Committee, the Board adopted and recommended your adoption of "Interim Platting and Annexation Procedures". Subsequent to this recommendation, your body by motion did approve the procedure. The pro- cedure did specify the time required for review by the Planning Board. At this time, it would appear that the time period available for the Board, Annexation Committee, and City Council to review and to art on proposals is the point of contention. In light of the discussion, the Planning Board passed the following motion: "That the Kalispell City -County Planning Board increase their regular meeting dates by one meeting a month, thereby meeting on the second and fourth Tuesday's of the month; and that we recommend to the City Council that consideration be given by them to a possible change in their meeting date from the -first and second Monday of the month to the first and third Monday." This recommendation for your consideration could possibly lead to improved Mayor and City Council -2 December 4�7 1972--_ ' coordination of activities between the Kalispell City Council and the Kalispell City -County Planning Board.
