City Administrator Patricia Diduch presented the 2025 Comprehensive Plan and explained to the Zoning Board of Appeals that zoning boards frequently carry planning-commission responsibilities in practice. Diduch told the board the draft includes several revisions and said staff will confirm whether the City’s code explicitly grants the ZBA the planning-commission duties being discussed.
Chairman pro tem Scott Jeffrey asked whether the plan reflected earlier meetings convened by a mayoral long-term planning committee; Diduch said, to the best of her knowledge, that information is reflected in the draft. No formal vote was taken; Diduch said a final draft will be provided and staff will complete a review of the code to verify the ZBA’s authorities before any change in titles or workload is implemented.
