The Pacific Planning & Zoning Commission approved final plat P&Z 2024‑9 for a 20‑lot subdivision on Old Gray Summit Road, a 53.15‑acre site, by a recorded roll‑call vote of 9–0. The commission’s approval included a stipulation that homeowners‑association (HOA) indentures and regulations be provided to the city and placed on file before final recording.
