Council moves to adopt land-development code changes to comply with Senate Bill 180
Summary
Staff presented a land-development code revision to reflect legislative changes from Senate Bill 180, including subdivision procedures, accessory dwelling unit language, dissolution of a recreation board and standards for certified recovery residences; staff requested second reading and adoption.
Planning staff summarized a draft code revision to align the city’s land-development code with changes from the state legislature under Senate Bill 180 (effective July 1). The ordinance updates procedures for subdivisions, adds accessory-dwelling-unit language, and clarifies treatment of certified recovery residences as required by the state law.
Staff also explained that the city council previously dissolved a recreation board and that the ordinance includes administrative updates and a clarification requested by the water department about how water meters and services are located near rights-of-way. The item was presented for second reading and adoption, and staff requested authorization to advertise and proceed with the formal adoption process.
Council members moved and seconded adoption on second reading during the meeting record; staff indicated the ordinance would include standard conflict, severability, and effectiveness clauses. The draft ordinance number given in meeting remarks was read on the record for identification.
Next steps: staff will finalize the ordinance text for adoption and confirm the effective date and appendices relating to code enforcement.
