Commission plans lawyer-led briefing as it shifts from ordinance review toward city planning
Summary
Members agreed to ask the city lawyer for a planning presentation and to move beyond occasional ordinance edits toward a proactive city-planning effort; new member will review bylaws before the next meeting.
Commission leadership told the new member the group will shift from mostly reviewing ordinances to taking on broader planning duties for Gholson and requested legal guidance on how to proceed.
The chair, who identified professional experience as a real-estate appraiser, said he wants the city attorney to return with a presentation on what professional city planning entails and how the commission should approach zoning, subdivision standards and mixed-use areas. "We need guidance," he said, and the commission agreed to invite the attorney to the next meeting rather than attempting to draft ordinance text without counsel.
