Summary

Staff recommended updating the nearly 10‑year‑old comprehensive land‑use plan, flagged an ADA transition plan requirement for city‑owned facilities and highlighted sidewalk improvements for Lee Street near the high school.

Staff told council the city's comprehensive land‑use plan is nearly 10 years old and recommended beginning an update to guide future development decisions. "That plan right now is about 10 years old, so we're almost a decade out," the staff member said, and proposed budgeting for a land‑use update in year two at approximately $60,000.

Staff also reminded council that the ADA transition plan is a requirement covering city‑owned facilities and said they had previously discussed the status with the city manager. Staff identified Lee Street around the high school as a candidate for future sidewalk work and said the department will pursue matching funds where available.
