Council accepts grant-funded RFQ to update zoning and residential-infill code
Summary
Council accepted a recommended consultant, Dynamic Planning (Ethan Mobley), to help Isleton update zoning and residential-infill code using a grant (cap referenced around $60,000); council discussed scope and whether consultant templates could reduce staff time.
The council accepted a proposal to update Isleton’s zoning code and residential-infill development rules using grant funds. Staff said the city issued a Request for Qualifications and received a single responsive firm: Dynamic Planning (Ethan Mobley). The engagement is structured as an RFQ with a stated cap; staff estimated the grant covers roughly $60,000 in consultant work.
Council members asked whether $60,000 would be sufficient to cover needed zoning updates and whether the consultant could provide ordinance templates or other time-saving tools. Staff said they would triage priorities with SACOG and focus on the most critical compliance items first.
Council moved and voted to accept the proposal and to proceed with consultant engagement under the grant. Staff will return with a scope and schedule for prioritized code updates.
Provenance: Topic introduced SEG 661; funding cap and Q&A SEG 703–716; motion and vote SEG 811–822.
