Several items were companion land‑use pairs (comp‑plan amendment + rezoning/PUD amendment) and were discussed as linked actions; the Ravella items generated the longest public comment period and council debate. Any approved item that involves development site work will still be subject to site‑plan review, SPRC comments, third‑party technical review and state permitting where required.
