After settling on a set of near‑term, scoped edits, commissioners directed staff to prepare an ordinance redline and a short justification memo for public release and additional review cycles. Staff said the drafting will focus on unit‑level residential exemptions, removing 'hall' from the nonactive list, and the permissibility of detached new primary buildings behind existing facades.
Staff noted timing constraints and that some of the numeric depth questions would likely remain for a later, broader review. A staff member said they would return with drafts and that the next relevant commission meeting on this topic would likely occur in the fall; commissioners also flagged an upcoming work session on food‑truck policy and potential review of the city's mobility plan. At the session end a commissioner moved to adjourn. "I move to adjourn," the commissioner said, and the meeting closed.
No votes on code language occurred at the session; the commission treated the meeting as a direction‑to‑staff work session rather than a formal decision point. Staff will circulate draft language and schedule public engagement as required by the code amendment process.
