Summary

Council liaison Murphy told the Planning Commission that City Council confirmed Andrea Leonard as city administrator and that council referred a memo about data centers to the Planning Commission for further review; no council decisions were made on data centers at that meeting.

Council liaison Murphy reported that City Council confirmed Andrea Leonard as the city's new administrator, who is expected to join the city in early July.

Murphy summarized several informational items the council received (a potential dog park at Stellar Park, a street-tree replacement program and a Department of Corrections work crew program) and said the council had first-reading ordinances on covered loads and revisions to animal-cruelty code. He said the council had a "pretty robust discussion" about data centers and referred a detailed staff memo on data-center policy options to the Planning Commission for further consideration.

Murphy told commissioners the council chose not to adopt a moratorium on data centers at that time, noting that a moratorium would require a public hearing within 60 days and a work plan. He encouraged commissioners to read the council packet and the data-center memo ahead of future commission work on the topic.
