Sponsor requested council public hearing be deferred to October. - Item 9 — EV charging facility text amendment: Commission approved a two‑meeting deferral; staff recommended approval with clarifications and additional definitions. - Item 10 — RN/RL middle‑housing districts (from housing & infrastructure study): Staff recommended approval of draft text; commission approved a two‑meeting deferral to allow further refinement and outreach. - Item 18 — Rezoning at 510 Neely’s Bend Road (RS10 to R10): Commission approved staff recommendation to rezone, regularizing an existing accessory dwelling unit on a 1.72‑acre parcel.
Procedural notes: several items required two‑meeting deferrals to comply with commission rules; for three text‑amendment items the applicant/sponsor indicated they would ask council to move their public‑hearing dates to October so the commission recommendation can be received in advance.
