Commission forwards development-agreement policy into code (Ordinance 26D)
Summary
Perry City Planning Commission recommended approval of an ordinance that folds the city's development-agreement policy and multifamily density guidance into the land-use code; commissioners said the move makes policy easier to find and enforce.
The commission voted to recommend that city council adopt Ordinance 26D, which moves the development-agreement policy and multifamily density guidance from nonbinding policy documents into the city’s land-use code. Staff said the change is primarily formal — it does not change policy substance but codifies priorities to make them easier to reference in applications and staff reports.
Commissioners asked whether cross-references and section numbers should be inserted to reduce future confusion; staff agreed to clarify references if necessary. The motion to recommend the ordinance passed by roll call.
