Summary

Commissioners approved the consent agenda; they approved BP Engineers Amendment No. 6 ($22,966), Tourist Park change order (+$2,283), approved a trail license, tabled the Fourth of July license for additional attendance and scheduled a second reading/public hearing on a zoning amendment for greenhouse garden centers.

At the meeting the commission approved the consent agenda and several routine items.

Key actions: the commission approved Amendment No. 6 to the BP Engineers services agreement for an additional $22,966 to cover observation and project management hours tied to the wellhouse and Barnum Street work; it approved Tourist Park change order No. 1 (an increase of $2,283 to accommodate a larger partition door and finishes); and it tabled the 2025 Fourth of July license agreement until the March 17 meeting at the request of the Fourth of July committee chair so the chair and city attorney can attend.

Staff also introduced (first reading) an amendment to the zoning ordinance to allow Greenhouse Garden Centers as an accessory use in certain downtown and commercial districts (example: Denmans hardware). The ordinance will proceed to second reading and a public hearing, with notice timing governed by the 5–15 day publication rule; staff said the public hearing would be scheduled for April 2 with notice published March 21.

Why it matters: These approvals advance construction closeout and park improvements, while the zoning amendment could affect allowed uses for downtown properties pending public notice and a second reading.
