2A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, APRIL 1, 2015 “I suppose they can be pretty funny, but some people can take it too far.” “I have always anticipated April Fools’ Day, and have always thought up great things on April 2. Now I’ve been remind- ed. I’ve got all day to think about it.” Beau Peterson, Astoria Cameron Brister, Astoria “I see it happen to everyone every day, whether it’s April 1 or Christmas. Some- times it happens to me. It’s OK as long as you can get a laugh out of it.” “As long as they’re reasonable.

The city’s planning staff did not make a recommendation on the Supple’s application, which frustrated several commission- ers. Mike Morgan, the city’s interim planner, told the com- mission that the proposed design and recess for vinyl windows on the house, in particular, were a policy call. %XWIRU&RPPLVVLRQHUV3DXO Caruana and Michelle Dief- fenbach, who voted against the Supple’s application, the issue was not windows, but the over- all design.
