Planning Commission recap of the Jan. 5 meeting
The Master Plan amendment drafting process will be worked on by the full Planning Commission. The draft is expected to be completed by July, and sent to City Council for distribution to neighboring communities.
The Planning Commission reviewed and discussed two documents provided by Planning Consultant Sally Elmiger. One corrects ordinance language regarding a defunct building height overlay (footnote 18), and the second addresses the new trend for residential rooftop uses. A public hearing will be held for the footnote correction when other public hearings are scheduled (to be announced).
For the 2021 term, Donna Tinberg was elected chair while Steve Kirk will serve as vice chair.
Of note: At the December meeting, it was determined that the Subcommittee on Public Engagement will be disbanded after results are reviewed from survey #2, which closes on Jan. 31. At that point, the subcommittee will have concluded its task of getting community input for updates to three subarea plans in the Master Plan.
