Summary

Council approved second/third readings and adopted Ordinance 49‑69, which implements a prior decision to rezone approximately 704 parcels to several residential and commercial zones and amend the official zoning map.

Council waived additional reading requirements, moved to second and third readings in a single action, and adopted Ordinance 49‑69 to implement the council's earlier zoning decision (Z and C 24‑5). The ordinance rezones roughly 704 parcels on and around 21st Street between Main Street and Nez Perce Drive and updates the official zoning map to reflect the changes.

The adoption followed a motion to approve the ordinance and the associated ordinance summary; council recorded an affirmative roll call and the clerk read the summary language describing rezoning from low‑density R2 and medium‑density R3 to a mixture of R3, R4, C4 and C6 zones. Staff noted the ordinance provides clarity and aligns zoning with the council's prior direction on land‑use planning.
