Staff proposes joint work session with City Council to refine owner-occupied deed-restriction policy
Summary
City staff asked the Planning Commission May 8 to schedule a joint work session with City Council to develop specifics for owner-occupied deed restrictions called for in the general plan; staff asked commissioners to flag scheduling conflicts and said more technical detail is needed before formal code changes.
City staff told the Planning Commission on May 8 that owner-occupied deed restrictions are a general-plan objective and that staff would like a joint work session with City Council to develop practical implementation details.
Staff said the item requires technical policy work—defining where and how deed restrictions would be applied, how the city would verify owner occupancy, and how the restrictions would be enforced or phased. The planner asked commissioners to identify scheduling conflicts for a late-May evening meeting so the two bodies could review technical options together before drafting code language.
Staff will confirm a final date with City Council and return to the commission with materials for the joint session.
