Carl Rhode, member of Lake Oswego Planning Commission and a professional engineer, described Lake Oswego's experience with planned unit development and use of engineers and non-professional people as co-ordinators. Mr. McNutt moved seconded by Dr. Purdy that the paragraph immediately following Section 18.05(c) be changed to read: "One of the professional consultants chosen by the applicant from either (a), (b), or (c) above shall be designated to be responsible for conferring with the planning staff with respect to the concept and details of the plan." Mr. Frank Bonson, designer, said this section is more restrictive than State laws and that other very well qualified people besides engineers are being left out. e Mr. Marx said the Horne Builders, Designers, Board of Realtors, Rental Properties Association, Resi- dential Appraisers, Associated General Contractors all oppose the section as it is now written, and are in favor of deletion of the requirement for a design team. Don Smith, architect, said the requirements for a design team better serves the community since it assures better neighborhoods, and the Planning Director said the planned unit development concept is for tracts of land of sufficient size to allow comprehensive planning which would require the services of the professional people provided for in the design team.
