300 every week is far too many.
Why not remove time wasting things from the agenda? Reduce staff hours and make the entire process more efficient. The final outcome will be exactly the same. How?? Create a "rubber stamp" policy. Automatic approval for certain routine changes. No need to submit any paperwork for things like:
Planting shrubs, flowers, etc in any existing planting bed for any/all items on an approved list.
Replacing mulch type in any existing planting bed for any/all items on an approved list.
Painting the house for using any color pallet on an approved list.
Replacing an existing tree with any tree on an approved list.
and so on...
