The Brentwood Planning Commission held a briefing on July 2, 2025, to discuss upcoming elections and appointments within the commission. The meeting began with a reminder that the election of officers would take place on the following Monday night, despite the absence of one member due to vacation.

The commission will be electing a new chair and vice chair, as the long-serving chair, Janet, has transitioned to the city commission. Members were encouraged to express their interest in these positions. A significant point of discussion was the potential impact of two members being on the list for the city commission, raising questions about how this might affect the election process. However, it was decided that there was no need to defer the elections, as the commission could handle any necessary adjustments later if required.

The city commission is expected to make announcements regarding its decisions on July 14, with a follow-up meeting scheduled for July 28 if needed. The Planning Commission agreed to proceed with the election as planned, with the understanding that any changes could be addressed in future meetings.

Additionally, the commission discussed the appointment of a member to the historic commission, with Preston expressing his desire to continue in that role. The meeting concluded with a consensus to maintain the current agenda and proceed with the planned elections and appointments.
