Public CommentDiscussion

Resident Anne Bodine (Line Park) raised concerns about the recently released low-residential lot-coverage study, urging commissioners to review staff scenarios that she said could increase developable area and impervious surface instead of reducing it. She called out proposals to revise minimum buildable lot rules, raise allowable impervious-area caps, and eliminate zoning lot-coverage limits as "crazy ideas" that would harm tree canopy and stormwater goals.
