Comprehensive Plan Update—Community Development Director Grochala <br /> 50 reviewed his written report outlining the outcome of the council's joint meeting with the <br /> 51 Comprehensive Plan Advisory Panel At that meeting,the panel reviewed the Plan <br /> 52 changes proposed by the council and accepted those changes with some modification <br /> 53 relative to residential density and affordability. When the period for outside jurisdictional <br /> 54 comment ends,the comments and those from individuals will be reviewed and addressed <br /> 55 accordingly. The Plan,as amended,will then be presented at a public hearing held before <br /> 56 the Planning and Zoning Board tentatively scheduled for mid-May.
