satisfactory performance evaluation from the City Council.

agreement issues. Based on this meeting, the committee decided to approve

Filling the Economic Development Committee’s vacancy

The committee will nominate B.J. Johnson for the Corona del Mar Chamber

of Commerce position on the committee. The group voted unanimously for

Johnson at its Feb. 16 meeting

Mar Chamber of Commerce.

Revising the General Plan

What to expect:

At the study session, the City Council will talk about coming up with a

community survey, which will ask questions about revising the General

Plan. Council would like to get community input on land use and planning

concerns in order to provide guidance as to which areas of the General

Plan need to be changed.
