Items for Committee Recommendation to Board a. Review draft Position Paper regarding August 3, 2017 hearing to consider Mr. Charles Burkhardt's appeal of staff decision to deny reimbursement of fees for 2 Hilferd Way, Danville. This item was taken out of order immediately following Item 2. Mr. Brightbill, referring to the information in the agenda materials, reviewed the history and current situation that lead to the decision to deny Mr. Burkhardt a reimbursement for that property. He stated that staff had no option but to deny the request, adding that District Counsel advised him the Board has the final decision on the appeal. Mr. Burkhardt answered Chair Nejedly's questions regarding the properties relating to this matter. Mr. Burkhardt, referring to the letters and map establishing the properties eligible for reimbursements included in the agenda materials, explained that he believes changes made in the District Code after 1998 do not null his entitlement to reimbursement. Mr. Burkhardt referred to sections 1. 04.030 and 6.20 of the District Code, stating he believes those sections protect his right to receive reimbursements even if a reimbursement fee was not collected on the property. Chair Nejedly thanked Mr. Burkhardt for presenting the information and advised that his appeal will be taken to the full Board on August 3, 2017. Mr. Burkhardt thanked staff and the Committee for hearing his request and left the meeting. Member Pilecki commented that perhaps the Board may want to consider assigning ministerial authority to the General Manager to handle issues of this type in the future to some agreed upon limit.
