STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION:
The work session with the Planning and Zoning Commission is required as a "Citizen Review Session" in compliance with Section 10-20.50.040 (Procedures) of the Zoning Code and applicable state law. The purpose of the work session is for staff to present an overview of the proposed amendments, to allow interested residents to provide their ideas, suggestions, and concerns, and for the Commission to ask questions, seek clarification, and discuss the amendments, as well as offer alternate suggestions and ideas. The Commission will take no action at this work session. After the work session, staff will revise the proposed amendments as necessary. The amendments will then be presented to the Commission at a public hearing for consideration and action. Once a recommendation is received, a public hearing will be scheduled with the City Council. The anticipated timeline for the amendments is as follows:
May 14, 2025 – Planning and Zoning Commission Work Session
May 28, 2025 – Potential Planning and Zoning Commission Public Hearing
June 17, 2025 – Potential City Council Public Hearing (1st Reading of Ordinance)
