SPECIAL MEETING AT LIBRARY
A formal presentation of the proposed updated comprehensive growth plan will be presented to the Planning Commission today at 5:30 in the Giddens room at the library.
Several options were considered based on a series of sometimes-contentious public meetings in 2013 and 14 -- and subsequent private meetings with "stakeholders."
Some issues raised by the public were sprawl on the east side, zoning of north Greeno Road, lack of zoning control outside of city limits, traffic, etc.
Mayor Kant has criticized city councils for failing to adopt necessary ordinances to put "teeth" in the plan (clk).
The Commission may choose to vote tonight to recommend it be adopted by the city council.
