Title
AMENDED ALTERNATE - Amending Section 16.04 of the Madison General Ordinances to reflect the reorganization of the Department of Planning and Development as the Department of Planning, Community and Economic Development and to update existing references in various Chapters to reflect the changes in Department and Unit names.
Body
DRAFTER'S ANALYSIS: This is part of the reorganization of the Department of Planning and Development. It renames the Department and the Director, and renames and moves several sections into an Economic and Community Development Division. This Alternate is based on amendments of the Plan Commission from February 5, 2007. This Alternate does not include the language in the BOE motion regarding neighborhoods, which the Plan Commission asked be referred to it. The name for the Department proposed in this Alternate is not, in the drafter's view, correct grammatically. As amended by the Plan Commission, the word “Development” would be modified by all these preceding words, “Planning, Community and Economic.” I do not believe this was intended. The correct name grammatically would be “Department of Planning and Community and Economic Development” or “Department of Planning, Community Development and Economic Development.” These names may not, however, be as pleasing to the ear.
