Meeting opened as a work session; commissioners will not take public comment tonight and will focus on three zoning-code topics: active depth, build-to/setbacks, and nonconforming structures (referred to as 'bill 2' in the packet). Staff provided a one‑page memo summarizing prior subcommittee work.

Speakers:

Work session of the Charlottesville Planning Commission focused on proposed edits to the development code: limiting active-depth requirements, clarifying what counts as active space (excluding residential unit interiors and halls), and easing rules so new primary buildings or additions can be built behind existing nonconforming structures. Staff will draft language and return for further review and public engagement.
