Neither CDAC nor a PAC decides what happens. Council does. So the choice is to have a citizen review committee make a recommendation, or not. I would argue that a well designed PAC or DRC has more actual design knowledge than Council, really, most of us have no planning background.
I don't understand the CDAC hate - they did good work, the regional plan draft now is much better than 2006 and much better than staffs 1st draft.
