Ely City planning commission backs steering‑committee application as council approves rezoning on N 3rd Ave W
Summary
Councilor Roose told the Planning and Zoning Commission the Ely City Council approved rezoning for 15 and 25 N 3rd Ave W and that a public hearing will be held next month; the commission recommended a steering‑committee application to council outlining committee composition and a scoring process.
Councilor Roose reported that the Ely City Council approved rezoning for properties at 15 and 25 N 3rd Ave W and said a public hearing will be held next month.
The commission spent most of its council‑report segment on a proposed City of Ely Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee application and selection procedure Roose presented. Roose described a recommended committee made up of one at‑large member (preferred low income), a downtown business representative, a council member, and a planning and zoning commission member, with applications ranked by the planning and zoning administrator, a PZ member and a council member using an application scoring process. Roose also clarified the planning and zoning administrator would serve on the steering committee as a non‑voting member.
Commissioner Heil moved to recommend the steering‑committee application form as presented to the City Council; Commissioner Anderson seconded and the motion carried. The transcript does not include a vote tally or further procedural details about the council’s rezoning action beyond Roose’s report.
The commission did not vote on the rezoning itself; it limited formal action to recommending the steering‑committee application to council. The commission also noted the council’s planned public hearing on the rezoning for next month.
