Council backs annual master‑plan progress reporting and public map of easements
Summary
After discussion about enforcement discretion and 'good faith' compliance, staff agreed to draft a requirement for phased developments to file master‑plan progress reports and to make a regularly updated map of recorded and pending conservation easements publicly available.
Councilmembers asked for more than paper commitments: they want a way to track whether developments are actually meeting preservation and phasing promises.
Staff said they support requiring a master plan progress report for phased developments and will draft ordinance language specifying what the report must contain and how often it is due. “We are in support of requiring a master plan progress report where there is a legitimate public purpose and requiring it for phased developments again to help you all keep track of how much land is being disturbed,” staff said. Council also asked that the map of recorded conservation easements be published on the city website so council and citizens can view both permanently recorded easements and areas in progress.
