Commission reviews miscellaneous code housekeeping: renumbering, minor-subdivision definition and accessory-structure cleanups
Summary
Staff walked commissioners through a bundle of clerical and structural code edits — renumbering sections, adding a definition for minor subdivisions, clarifying accessory-structure language and updating pool/related sections — most of which commissioners supported with small edits.
As part of ongoing maintenance, staff presented a mixed package of clerical and substantive code changes: renumbering parts of the accessory-dwelling section, inserting a definition for 'minor subdivision' (three lots or fewer), removing outdated references to city-council final-plat approval, and tightening language around accessory-structure terms.
Caden explained the changes were a mixture of clerical fixes and substantive edits where the code had gaps (for example, a missing definition for accessory structure). Commissioners asked clarifying questions about placement of the new definition and accepted staff’s approach to consolidate and renumber sections for clarity.
Several minor typographical and flow edits were proposed (e.g., changing 'than' to 'that' in one sentence). Staff said additional housekeeping items will likely surface and be added in subsequent drafts.
