Commissioner Keith Harvey raised a question about a sewer line on 800 West. Council Member Vance Brown asked the commission to review and consider changes to the animal ordinance and asked that ATV/OTV and bicycle ordinances be reviewed; he also encouraged recruitment for Planning and Zoning Commission vacancies and asked about offering Zoom participation for future meetings.

The commission’s next steps were not specified in the minutes beyond the request to hold further discussion and possibly schedule a work session on Ordinance 2026-6.10.
