Summary

Staff handed commissioners a near-final draft of the city comprehensive plan at the meeting, asked for marked-up comments and said staff will reformat and return a revised draft, including a new downtown chapter required under recent statutes.

Chair opened the meeting and staff distributed a draft of the comprehensive plan that arrived shortly before the session. A staff member told commissioners: "We've gone through it. We've already established a list of things that are missing," and asked they mark up corrections and maps for staff to fold into a revised draft.

Staff described next steps: collect commissioners' comments, reformat the document for clarity and return the plan chapter-by-chapter for more detailed review. The staff member said a downtown chapter will be added to satisfy "the final element section ... required under the new statutes," and that staff will bring a rewritten draft and begin breaking the plan into chapters at upcoming meetings. Commissioners agreed to submit edits and requested Word documents or links to make markup easier.
