Council adopts design-review change for Blaze Ridge development
Summary
On second reading the council approved Ordinance 30-2026 to allow a major change to a design review district for the Blaze Ridge development; council asked staff to evaluate whether developers can be required to bond promised community amenities in future approvals.
On second and final reading the council approved Ordinance 30-2026, which permits a major change to a design review district (DRD) for the Blaze Ridge development.
Councilman Boles said he had no new material to add but stood for questions. One council member raised concerns that amenities promised to residents in other developments had not materialized and asked staff to investigate whether developers can be required to bond community amenities or otherwise secure them at the time of planning. The member said, “we had brought up, possibly looking at having developers bond community amenities,” and asked staff to research best practices used by other municipalities.
Staff committed to follow up with the city attorney and return information. After discussion the council took a roll-call vote and approved the ordinance on second reading.
