Council approves code cleanup clarifying Planning Commission pay process

The council approved Ordinance No. 26-16 (first reading) on Aug. 19 to correct where Planning Commission language appears in the municipal code and to clarify the Commission’s statutory placement. Planning Director Jennifer Woods told the council the amendment moves authorizing language into Chapter 16 and that the Planning Commission reviewed and unanimously approved the change. Town Attorney Nicholas Hartman explained the revision is a technical cleanup and that any future pay adjustments for Planning Commissioners would be adopted by separate Resolution rather than as part of the ordinance.
