memorandum
to: Mayor and Town Council
from: Michael Sudol, Planner II
subject: Recommendation for the Community Design Commission vacancy(s)
date: August 28, 2018
Recommendation: The Community Design Commission met on Tuesday, August 28, 2018, and by a Unanimous vote have made the following recommendation(s) to the Town Council for consideration:
• Megan Patnaik, Appointment, Chapel Hill Resident
• Victor R Lancaster, Appointment, Chapel Hill Resident
• Susan L Lyons, Appointment, Chapel Hill Historic District Resident
Special Request(s): The applicant for the Historic District seat is technically ineligible, as she does not live within the Historic District. However, the Commission has requested that a special exception be made due to the fact that the seat has been vacant for many months, that the applicant has previously lived within the Historic District, and that she was President of both Preservation Chapel Hill and the Chapel Hill Historical Society.
Background: The Community Design Commission noted the following strengths of the applicants that were recommended:
Megan Patnaik: Architect with 10 years of experience working locally;
Victor R Lancaster: Retired Engineer with a unique perspective and demonstrated commitment to the position, having appeared multiple times before the Commission;
Susan L Lyons: Previously lived within the Historic District, and was President of both Preservation Chapel Hill and the Chapel Hill Historical Society.
Note: Communications and Public Affairs notes that the Community Design Commission reviewed the following applications: Bennett T Dansby, Victor R Lancaster, Susan L Lyons, Megan Patnaik, and Marci Vaughn. No additional applications have been received between August 28, 2018 and August 29, 2018 for the Community Design Commission.
