Executive Summary Carlsbad Municipal Code Section 2.15.020(C) requires that each board or commission provide to the City Council for its approval an annual work plan of activities to be undertaken in the coming year or years and to provide a subsequent report of its accomplishments. Attached for Historic Preservation Commission consideration is a report of the Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Work Plan accomplishments and the proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 Work Plan. Discussion In 2018, the City Council revised the Municipal Code to create uniform policies and procedures related to boards and commissions, including a requirement for annual work plans. The purpose of the work plan is to encourage increased dialogue between the city’s boards and commissions and the City Council. It is also intended to ensure that the boards and commissions are working in line with the City Council’s priorities. The Historic Preservation Commission adopted is Fiscal Year 2023-2024 Work Plan on March 13, 2023. At its March 11, 2024 meeting, Commissioners will discuss the proposed Fiscal Year 2024-25 Work Plan (Exhibit 1) and identify opportunities to assist with items on the work plan. The work plan represents top priority projects based previous work plans and/comments made by the Commission. Staff also maintains a list of “on-deck” projects (also shown in Exhibit 1) that are not included in the draft work plan as a way to keep track of projects for inclusion in future work programs. Though “on-deck” projects are not included in the draft work plan, they may be brought to the Historic Preservation Commission if the issue becomes more pressing and/or the opportunity arises to elevate the project. Furthermore, “On deck” projects (or specific aspects of projects) may be bundled with related projects for efficiency. HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION Staff Report After feedback is received, at the same meeting the Historic Preservation Commission will need to adopt the attached resolution to formally recommend that the City Council accept the priority projects listed. After the Work Plan is adopted by the City Council, the Historic Preservation Commission and staff will focus efforts on the activities listed in the approved work plan. Fiscal Analysis There is no direct fiscal impact associated with receiving this informational report. Environmental Evaluation (CEQA) Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21065, this action does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in that it has no potential to cause either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, and therefore does not require environmental review.
