The changes are based on the discussion held at the 22 February meeting. Staff noticed a public hearing for the March Planning Commission meeting 23 to formally consider the proposed language, and make any final edits or recommendations, 24 prior to sending the material onto City Council for consideration. 25 26 The table includes the original language in black, the previously proposed changes in redline, 27 and new additions/changes in blue. Text that is proposed to carryover from the existing code 28 is referenced in the second column. The third column provides some commentary explaining 29 the purpose of the changes (or in a few cases, why no change is proposed). New information 30 in this section is bolded for clarity. 31 32 Mr. Grittman noted as before, the Commission is not expected to address the boundaries of 33 the districts. The Comprehensive Plan’s recommendations are to retain the existing zoning 34 pattern, with the primary change being a consideration of integrating more residential 35 development into the commercial zones. 36 37 Mr. Grittman provided the relevant Comprehensive Plan language, and the two zoning 38 districts for review, along with the table-form amendments as noted above. The Planning 39 Commission is asked to provide comments and thoughts on the proposals at the meeting and 40 public hearing, after which staff will prepare formal ordinances amendments for City Council 41 consideration. 42 43 Staff recommends approval of the proposed amendments to the Commercial and Light 44 Industrial zoning districts as reflected in the provided ordinance redline version, with final 45 comments and edits from the Commission following the public hearing. 46
