Planning staff previews 36‑month code update; public hearing packet due Aug. 19
Summary
Planning staff told council the 36‑month code update will go to the Planning Commission in September; staff will publish the public hearing document around Aug. 19 and asked council for comments by the following Monday at noon.
Michael of the planning team presented the 36‑month code update to council and described the timeline for public review. The chair said the packet would go to Planning Commission in September, with a first reading at council's second September meeting and a second reading at the council's first October meeting; staff confirmed publication of the public hearing document around Aug. 19 and asked for council feedback within one week.
Michael described the update as a mix of technical and substantive changes that staff has iterated on since adopting the new code, noting staff has performed updates every six months since adoption and is proposing this 36‑month package while reserving the ability to process time‑sensitive one‑off amendments. "We keep a running list based on feedback and from the public," Michael said, explaining some amendments originated from public suggestions. Staff will meet with Planning Commission and hold a public 'coffee with the code' session before the hearing.
