Council schedules follow‑up on STR compliance, infill policy and façade grant funding
Summary
Council members asked staff to return with clarification and potential policy changes on short‑term rental enforcement, a definition and exception policy for infill projects, and a revisit of façade grant funding tied to a partially evaluated 203 North Main application.
Council members used the future‑agenda slot to request staff return with additional information on several topics raised during the meeting.
A council member asked that the city clarify the definition of "infill projects" in policy and code, including whether the council can grant exceptions to the 75‑foot requirement in specific cases. Another request asked staff to prioritize tourist projects according to available funding. Councilwoman Heidi Wilder asked the council to revisit funding for the façade grant program to cover a second portion of an application that had been combined earlier and may require additional funds for completion at 203 North Main. "Because it it goes over the 40,000 that are there," Wilder said, describing why additional funds would be needed for the second part of the application.
Council and staff also confirmed a short‑term‑rental compliance item will be scheduled for a future meeting; scheduling clarification during the meeting noted that the item is expected at the second council meeting in January. The requests were recorded as future agenda items rather than actions taken during this meeting.
