At the City Council Meeting of April 17, 2000, the Council directed the Planning Commission to defer discussion of the 2020 Urban Development Line until further notice. The Planning Commission considered a memo from Council Member Barnes providing background information on the properties involved. Puleo stated the boundary change request was not initiated by any member of the Planning Commission but was placed on the Planning Commission Agenda by the previous City Administrator as a result of issues raised while preparing the land use plan.
