The City Council on May 29 included on its consent agenda an ordinance to amend the City Code (Title 12, Streets and Other Public Ways and Places) to require sidewalks for any new development along newly constructed public roads and along dedicated permanent roadway easements in all zoning districts, with exceptions for M‑2 and M‑3 industrial districts.

The consent‑agenda item was read aloud during the meeting and no separate debate on the floor was recorded in the transcript. The ordinance was listed as second reading in the consent materials circulated to council members.
