Summary

Planning staff asked the commission to forward proposed amendments to the Camas Municipal Code definitions (Section 15.02.0.010) to the City Council; the commission moved, seconded and gave a positive recommendation to send the changes forward.

The Planning Commission heard a staff recommendation to forward proposed revisions to the Camas Municipal Code definitions to the City Council. "The staff is recommending that the Planning Commission forward a positive recommendation of approval to the City Council for the proposed amendments of the definitions as outlined in Exhibit A," a staff member said.

The chair led a page‑by‑page review and invited comments on two definitions on page one, two definitions on page two (one of which staff recommended removing), and several on subsequent pages including three proposed removals and one minor edit. After brief clarification the chair asked for a motion to recommend the definitions positively to the council. A committee member moved to forward the proposed definitions (referencing Section 15.02.0.010), the motion was seconded and the commission voted in favor.

The action moves the proposed definition changes to the City Council for final consideration. The commission did not record a roll‑call tally in the transcript; the motion was made, seconded and the chair announced assent. The staff said completing the definitions would likely trigger follow‑on changes to the allowed‑use table and parking standards later in the process.

The commission then moved to the next agenda item.
