Summary

The board voted to (1) recommend the zoning text amendment with a change that the planning board be the C2 special‑permit approver, (2) circulate a notice of intent to declare lead agency (and direct staff to prepare EAF Part 2 if no objections), (3) recommend renewal of the Jan Peek House special permit with average 28 / maximum 38 bed language, and (4) accept December minutes.

At the meeting the planning board recorded several formal actions by voice vote:

• Recommendation to common council on zoning text amendment: The board moved and approved a recommendation supporting the proposed amendments that would allow health clubs as‑of‑right in C1 and by special permit in C2, with the board adding that the planning board should be the approving authority for C2 special permits to streamline the local process.

• Notice of intent to declare lead agency: The board approved circulating a notice of intent to declare the planning board lead agency for the coordinated environmental review; staff were directed that if no objections are received, to prepare a draft EAF Part 2 for the February meeting.

• Jan Peek House special permit renewal: The board approved a positive recommendation to the common council to renew the Jan Peek House special permit with clarifying language specifying an average daily bed occupancy of 28 and a maximum bed capacity of 38; CHOP will return for site‑plan review.
