[PUBLIC HEARING]
THANK YOU. THE NEXT ORDER OF BUSINESS IS HEARING THE PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA ITEMS. THE FIRS AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 5 IS HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER ORDINANCE A-MINDING THE TEXT OF THE COMPREHENSIVE SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE CSO TO AMEND ADD OR DELETE CONTENT[00:05:02]
INCLUDING AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLE 3, PROCEDURES FOR PLAT APPROVAL, SECTION A.PROCEDURE 4 AND 5 ARTICLE 6. FINAL PLAT SECTION B GENERAL PROVISIONS. 2, PROCEDURE AND 4, CONTENT ARTICLE 7, REPLAT SECTION B GENERAL PROVISIONS 4, CONTENT G, AND ARTICLE 8 MISCELLANEOUS PLATS AND ABANTENMENTS SECTION E CONVEYANCE PLATS 1, 2 AND 3.
THIS IS CASE PLST2025-207 TEXT AMENDMENT UTILITY SIGNATURES.
OUR CASE CORD NAIRTD TONIGHT IS MR. LAUREN SHAPIRO.
>> DEVELOPMENT SERVICE, WHAT WE ARE PROPOSING TO DO IS MAKE MODIFICATIONS TO THE SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE. WE HAD CONTACT WITH ALL THE UTILITY COMPANIES WE PARTNER WITH THAT ARE INVOLVED IN THE PLATTING PROCESS TO INSURE THAT THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE IS PUT IN THE GROUND PROPERPLY AND THE EASEMENTS ARE PROVIDED.
SO, WITH THAT, IN SUMMARY WHAT WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO DO IS FIRST, REVISE THE PROCEDURES AND CONTENT ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE UTILITY COMPANIES AFTER OUR FOUR MONTHS OF COORDINATION WITH THOSE ENTITIES AS PART OF THE AUTHORIZATION OF RECORDING A PLAT.
THIS IS THE CHECKS AND BALANCES. I HAVE ECHO HERE DON'T I? THE OTHER THING THAT IT DOES, IT AMENDMENTS ARE DOING IS ALLOWING CONVEYANCE PLATS TO BE PART OF OR WITH FINAL PLATS AND REPLATS.
RIGHT NOW THE WAY WE HAVE IT IS CONVEYANCE PLATS, THAT IS FOR THE PURPOSES OF CREATING LOTS OF RECORDS FOR THE PURPOSE OF SALE.
THIS ALLOWS A DEVELOPER FOR EXAMPLE TO DIVIDE A PROPERTY AND MAYBE THEY WANT TO DEVELOP ONE LOT OUT OF THE OTHERS THEY WANT TO SPLIT.
THE ONES THEY ARE NOT READY TO DEVELOP YET THEY CAN CONVEY AS A FINAL PLAT OR REPLAT.
FINALLY, WE ARE REQUIRED NOTES ON THE FINAL PLATS AND REPLATS BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY IF THEY ARE NOT GOING TO DEVELOP A PROPERTY IMMEDIATELY, THE ONE THEY ARE SUBDIVIDING OFF, WE NEED TO ADD A NOTE TO INDICATE THEY HAVE TO COME BACK AT A FUTURE MEETING OR FUTURE SUBDIVISION TO ESTABLISH THE EASEMENTS AS PART OF IT DEVELOPMENT WHEN IT COMES ONLINE.
THAT NOTE WOULD BE ADDED. FINALLY, WE MADE MINER MODIFICATIONS TO THE HOME OWNER AGREEMENT NOTES.
I THINK IT SAID, YOU WILL BUT NOW WE ARE SAYING YOU SHALL IN THE LANGUAGE, SO THAT IS REALLY IT. SO, IN SUMMARY, LIKE I SAID, THE EXISTING ORDINANCE NOW, APPROVE WITH STIPULATION LIKE THE PLATS YOU SAW BEFORE YOU.
UTILITY DON'T HAVE TO BE INSTALLED.
THAT IS NOT REQUIRED AT THIS POINT IN TIME, BUT STAFF STILL-STAFF REVIEWS THE PLAT INSURING THE STIPULATIONS ARE MET BUT NOT CLEARLY WRITTEN IN THE SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE.
APPLICANTS ACQUIRE THE SIGNATURES FOR UTILITY COMPANIES, WHICH IS PART OF THEM HAVING THEIR SIGNATURES FROM OWNERSHIP AND THEN FROM THE UTILITY COMPANIES THEMSELVES, WHICH IS A VERY LONG PROCESS BY THE WAY.
WE ARE ONE OF THE FEW CITIES IN THE METRO PLEX THAT HAS THAT STEP.
I WILL GET OVER A MOMENT WHAT WE ARE PROPOSING.
THE CITY SIGNS THE PLAT AFTER THE SIGNATURES ARE THERE.
WHAT WE ARE PROPOSING TO DO IS P & Z APPROVE WITH STIPULATION, UTILITIES NOW ARE REQUIREMENTS TO BE INSTALLED BUT IF THEY ARE CONVEYING IT AND INSTALL IT LATER.
THE UTILITY COMPANIES AND STAFF REVIEW THOSE PLATS TOGETHER AFTER ALL THE INFRASTRUCTURE IS PUT IN, BUT BEFORE FILED AND WHAT UTILITY COMPANIES WANT ARE LETTERS.
REQUIRE DEVELOPERS TO HAVE UTILITY LETTERS WHETHER [INAUDIBLE] THEY ACQUIRE THE LETTER PROVIDE TO US VERIFYING THE COMPANIES REVIEWED THE PLAT AND OKAY WITH WHERE EVERYTHING IS SET AND AT THAT TIME, THE CITY WILL SIGN THE PLAT AND RECORD IT.
WHAT YOU NOTICE HERE, UTILITY COMPANYERIZE NO LONGER REQUIRED TO SIGN THE PLAT, WHICH SOMETIMES TAKES DEVELOPERS MONTHS TO GET THE SIGNATURES.
NOW IT IS EASY. THE DEVELOPER HAS THE LETTERS IN HAND. THEY HAVE FROM THE UTILITY COMPANIES WHICH ARE REQUIRED ANYWAY.
THAT IS WHAT THE PROPOSED PROCESS WILL BE.
SO, NOW IF YOU LOOK AT A TYPICAL PLAT RIGHT NOW, THIS IS WHERE I'M TALKING ABOUT.
IT IS HARD TO SEE THE ONES YOU JUST APPROVED BEFORE, BUT ESSENTIALLY ALL OF THEM HAVE A UTILITY SIGNATURE BLOCK. THAT'S WHAT IS CURRENTLY REQUIRED ON THE PLAT. WHAT WE ARE PROPOSING THAT IS REMOVED FROM THE PLAT AND INSTEAD THE APPLICANT HAS THE AUTHORIZATION LETTER FROM EACH OF THE UTILITY COMPANIES. THAT'S ESSENTIALLY WHAT WE ARE
[00:10:02]
PROPOSING AS FAR AS CHANGES GO IN THE SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE.>> COMMISSIONERS, ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF?
YES COMMISSIONER DOYLE. >> THANK YOU.
WILL THE LETTERS THAT ARE ISSUED TO THE-
>> DEVELOPERS! >> DEVELOPERS BE ENFORCEABLE AS MATTER OF LAW AS STRONGLY AS THE SIGNATURES ON THERE?
>> YES. IT DOES THE SAME THING.
WHERE THE PROBLEM LIES IS THE DEVELOPER HAS TO PHYSICALLY TAKE THE HARD COPY OF THE PLAT, TAKE TO EACH OF THE UTILITY COMPANIES AND IT IS NOT A PRACTICE UTILITY COMPANIES DO ANYMORE. THE SOLUTION IS UTILITY COMPANIES PROVIDE THE LETTERS OF AUTHORIZATION, THE PLAT YOU HAVE IS OKAY, THE CIVIL ENGINEERING PLANS YOU HAVE ARE FINE.
WE ARE SATISFIED WITH WHERE THEY ARE.
THEY GET AN AUTHORIZATION LETTER.
THIS SKIPS THE STEP OF ADDING MORE TIME TO GET THE SIGNATURES.
THE LETTER IS FROM THE UTILITY COMPANIES.
>> THE CITY HAS ALL THE RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES IT WOULD HAVE BEEN AFFORDED BY THE SIGNATURE?
>> RIGHT. THAT'S THE CHECKS AND BALANCES ARE LITERALLY GETTING A LETTER FROM THE UTILITY COMPANIES.
>> THANK YOU. >> YES, COMMISSIONER KRAMER.
>> THANK YOU MR. CHAIRMAN. IS THERE SOME WAY TO VERIFY THAT WHEN THEY GET THE LETTERS WHEN THE UTILITY COMPANY ISSUES THE LETTERS THAT IT IS THE SAME PLAT FROM THAT ALL THE UTILITY COMPANIES ARE LOOKING AT AND THERE'S-
>> YES- >> VERSION 1 OF THE PLAT AND
VERSION 2 OF THE PLAT. >> GOOD POINT.
IN THE STEP WHERE THE UTILITY COMPANIES AND STAFF REVIEW THE PLAT, ONE OTHER REQUIREMENT IS THEY PROVIDE A BLACK LINE E-MAIL TO US.
WE FORWARD TO THE BLACK LINE OF THE PLAT TO THE UTILITY COMPANIES AND THAT IS THE TIME TO REVIEW IT AND PROVIDE THE LETTER.
THE SAME VERSION WE ARE VIEWING ONE LAST TIME BEFORE WE GET ALL THE SIGNATURES IS WHAT THE UTILITY COMPANIES REVIEW. WE MET WITH ALL THE COMPANIES OVER THE PAST 4 MONTHS SO NOW FINALLY ALL ON THE SAME PAGE.
THE UTILITY COMPANIES ARE VERY HAPPY WITH WHAT WE ARE DOING.
IT IS ANTIQUATED FOR DEVELOPERS TO TAKE PLATS TO THEM TO HAVE IT SIGNED.
IT IS FAR EASIER TO HAVE AN AUTHORIZATION LETTER.
>> COMMISSIONERS, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? NO? THANK YOU MR. SHAPIRO.
THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING. ANYONE WHO WANT TO COMMENT OR OPINION KNOWN MAY COME FORWARD AND DO SO AT THIS TIME.
ANYONE ON THE COMMISSION HAVE ANY FINAL QUESTIONS FOR THE STAFF OR WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION FOR ITEM NUMBER 5? YES COMMISSIONER FOSTER.
>> YES, I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND VOTE TO APPROVE CASE NUMBER WLST2025-2027, CSO TEXT AMENDMENT UTILITY SIGNATURES.
I DIDN'T SEE STAFF STIPULATIONS.
NECESSARY. >> YES, VICE CHAIR PENDLETON.
>> THANK YOU MR. CHAIRMAN. I SECOND THAT MOTION.
>> THANK YOU VICE CHAIR PENDLETON.
COMMISSIONER FOSTER, THE ORIGINAL MOTION WAS MADE BY COMMISSIONER FOSTER AND SECONDED BY VICE CHAIR PENDLETON FOR CASE PLST2025-207 CSO TEXT AMENDMENT UTILITY SIGNATURES. ANY DISCUSSION ON THE MOTION BEFORE WE MOVE TO A VOTE? NOT SEEING, SO MOVE TO START THE VOTE. THE MOTION PASSES UNANIMOUSLY WITH COMMISSIONER SORTER BEING ABSENT.
SINCE THE MOTION WAS PASSES THE CASE WILL BE FORWARDED TO CITY COUNCIL MEETING FOR APRIL 7, 2026. THANK YOU.
THE NEXT ITEM IS NUMBER 6. HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER ORDINANCE AMENDING THE TEXT OF THE COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE TO AMEND ADD OR DELETE CONTENT RELATED TO IMPROVING ORGANIZATION BY RENUMBERING CHAPTER ARTICLES AND MODIFYING CROSS REFERENCES CONTAINED WITHIN THE TABLE OF CONTENTS.
ARTICLE 2, ZONING DISTRICT, ARTICLE 8 NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES DISTRICT, ARTICLE 17 RESERVE
[00:15:02]
FOR FUTURE USE, ARTICLE 20, TRANSIT CENTER DISTRICTS.ARTICLE 20.1, CORPORATE COMMERCIAL DISTRICT.
ARTICLE 25, LANDSCAPE AND SCREENING MODIFYING ARTICLE 26 RESERVED FOR FUTURE USE AND MODIFYING THE ARTICLE 17 TO CONSOLIDATE ARTICLES 16.1 INTERSTATE POFERBP LAY DISTRICT, 20.2 GATEWAY OVERLAY DISTRICT.
20.3 HISTORIC PRESERVATION, OVERLAY DISTRICT AND 20.4 KWROSEY-BELT LINE REDEVELOPMENT OVERLAY DISTRICT. THIS IS CASE PLZT2026-006 CZO TEXT AMENDMENT ARTICLES RESTRUCTURE.
THE CASE COORDINATOR IS MR. SHAD RHOTEN.
>> THANK YOU AND GOOD EVENING CHAIRMAN, PLANNING ZONING COMMISSION, SHAD RHOTEN DEVELOPMENT SERVICE. AS YOU STATED, THIS IS A CITY INITIATED REQUEST TO AMEND OUR ZONING ORDINANCE AND ARTICLE RESTRUCTURE IS A GOOD TERM FOR IT. WHAT I WILL SAY THAT IS WHAT WE ARE DOING IS SIMPLY MOVING ARTICLES AROUND MODIFYING NUMBERS AND MODIFYING THE CROSS REFERENCE TO MATCH THAT. I THINK IMPORTANT TO NOTE, THERE IS NO REGULATORY CONTENT THAT WILL BE ADDED OR DELETED OR MODIFIED.
IT IS SIMPLY MOVING ARTICLES AROUND.
I WILL GET INTO THAT WITH MY NEXT SLIDE AND VISUALIZE THAT FOR YOU.
BEFORE I DO, LET'S GO THROUGH THE MAIN POINTS OF WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO ACHIEVE HERE TONIGHT.
SIMPLY, WE ARE GOING TO REPLACE THE ARTICLE STRUCTURE THE WAY IT IS LISTED.
IT IS DONE BY ROMAN NUMERALS AND REPLACE WITH ARABIC NUMERALS FOR EASE OF REFERENCE AND RECOGNITION. WE ARE ALSO GOING TO RELOCATE THE CONTENTS OF CORPORATE COMMERCIAL DISTRICT.
IT IS IN ARTICLE 20.1, THAT IS MOVED OVER TO A RESERVE SECTION AND WE'LL DO SOMETHING SIMILAR WITH OUR OVERLAY DISTRICTS. THOSE ARE ALL RIGHT NOW INDEPENDENT ARTICLES. YOU CAN SEE THE NUMBERS THERE, 16.1, 20.2, 20.3 AND 20.4. THOSE ARE THE FOUR OVERLAY DISTRICTS. WE ARE SEEKING TO COMBINE THOSE CONSOLIDATE THE CONTENT, NOT CHANGING OR ADDING REGULATORY CONTENT, SIMPLY COMBINING IN ONE ARTICLE WHICH IS SIMILAR HOW WE HAVE OUR TRANSIT CENTERS SET UP IN THE ZONING ORDINANCE.
ADDITIONALLY, WHAT THAT WILL DO, WE WILL ADD ONE MORE SECTION AND I'LL GET TO A SLIDE TO CLARIFY THIS A BIT. WE ARE GOING TO ADD A SECTION IN THERE RESERVE SECTION. WHAT IS A RESERVE SECTION? IT IS BASICALLY A PLACEHOLDER SO WE'LL ADD FOR FUTURE AMENDMENTS OR CONTENT AT ANOTHER TIME. THAT ISN'T PART OF TONIGHT'S AMENDMENT. LAST, WE ARE GOING TO REMOVE ANY OF THESE UNUSED ARTICLES NOW, SO BASICALLY ANY OF THE DOT ARTICLES 16.1, 20.1, 20.2, 20.3 AND 20.4 THE CONTENTS WOULD HAVE MOVED TO ANOTHER ARTICLE SO WE'LL REMOVE THOSE AND THE LAST THING THIS WILL DO IS SWEEP THROUGH AND MAKE SURE ALL THE CROSS REFERENCES ARE PREOPERATIVELY LABELED. WHAT ARE CROSS REFERENCES? MOST ARTICLES REFERENCE ANOTHER ARTICLE, FOR EXAMPLE, COMMERCIAL DISTRICT MAY REFERENCE A PARK-ARTICLE 25 FOR PARKING FOR NUMBER OF PARKING SPACES OR MAY REFERENCE LANDSCAPING FOR REQUIRED LANDSCAPING AMOUNT.
WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THOSE REFERENCES ARE UP TO DATE WITH THESE CHANGES.
SO, IF YOU CAN SEE THIS, THIS WILL HELP YOU VISUALIZE IT I HOPE.
WHAT THIS IS, IS A CURRENT TABLE SHOWING OUR CURRENT ARTICLE STRUCTURE.
THAT IS ON THE LEFT SIDE FOR EXISTING.
THE TABLE IS BROKEN INTO TWOR TWO PARTS.
ON THE RIGHT SIDE IS WHAT WE ARE ATTEMPTING.
ANYTHING IN RED IS GOING TO BE REMOVED WHILE ANYTHING IN GREEN IS GOING TO BE ADDED OR MODIFIED SO I'LL GO THROUGH THIS REAL QUICK SO YOU CAN SEE IF YOU FOLLOW MY POINTER IF YOU CAN SEE IT, STARTING WITH THE EXISTING WAY OUR ZONING ORDINANCE FLOWS WITH THESE DIFFERENT ARTICLES, YOU CAN SEE THE ARTICLE NUMBERS AS WELL AS THE CONTENTS INSIDE THE SPECIFIC ARTICLE. THAT'S ON BOTH SIDES HERE.
SO, FIRST OFF, I'LL START WITH THE NUMBERING.
PRETTY SIMPLE. ALL WE ARE DOING IS CHANGING THAT FROM ROMAN NUMERALS TO ARABIC NUMERALS AS YOU CAN SEE HERE.
IF YOU NOTICE ALSO ARTICLE 13, SO RIGHT HERE AND ARTICLE 17, RIGHT HERE CURRENTLY THOSE ARE BOTH RESERVED. AGAIN, THERE ARE PLACEHOLDERS AND WE WANT TO UTILIZE THOSE. SO, WE ARE GOING TO FIRST OFF WITH ARTICLE 13 IS TAKE THE CONTENTS OF RIGHT OVER HERE, CORPORATE COMMERCIAL DISTRICT
[00:20:04]
AND YOU CAN SEE THAT WILL BE MOVED OVER TO FILL IN ARTICLE 13 RIGHT HERE.AND WITH ARTICLE 17, AGAIN ANOTHER RESERVED ARTICLE.
WHAT WE ARE SEEKING TO DO IS COMBINE ALL THE OVERLAY DISTRICTS SO THAT IS GOING TO INCLUDE THE 16.1 HERE AS WELL AS 20.2, 20.3 AND 20.4.
WE'LL CONSOLIDATE THAT INTO ONE ARTICLE INSTEAD OF FOUR SEPARATE ARTICLES AND WITHIN THAT ARTICLE THEY ARE BROKEN BY PARTS AND I'LL HAVE A SLIDE TO SHOW YOU WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE LATER. IN ADDITION WHAT WE WILL DO ROUGHLY HERE IS INSERT A NEW ARTICLE UNDER ARTICLE 25.
THAT WILL BE A PLACE HOLDER RESERVED FOR FUTURE USE.
WHEN WE HAVE DONE THAT, WHAT IT DOES IS IT CAUSES EVERY ARTICLE AFTERWARDS TO INCREASE IN NUMBER. 26 WILL BECOME 27 AND 27 BECOMES 28 AND SO ON. YOU SEE HOW THAT FLOWS.
EVERYTHING ON THE RIGHT WOULD BE THE MODIFIED VERSION FOR WHAT WE ARE DOING TONIGHT.
SO, THIS IS JUST A GRAPHIC TO SHOW YOU HOW THE ZONING ORDINANCE CURRENTLY FLOWS GAENS WHAT WE ARE PROPOSAL BUT WE DO HAVE CONTENTS IN THE ARTICLE REGULATORY THINGS CHANGED BUT LIKE I SAID, CROSS REFERENCES, PAGE NUMBERS, ARTICLE HEADERS WHERE ALL THERE IS A ROMAN NUMERAL OR NEED TO ADJUST THE ARTICLE NUMBER BASED ON THE INCLUSION OF ARTICLE 26.
SO, THIS IS A REFERANCE AGAIN FOR WHAT ARTICLE 17 WOULD LOOK LIKE.
AGAIN, THIS IS GOING TO CONSOLIDATE THESE ARTICLES ON THE LEFT INTO ONE ARTICLE AND BROKEN INTO PARTS SO YOU CAN SEE THAT IS PART 1, GATEWAY OVERLAY, PART 2, HISTORIC PRESERVATION, PART 3, THE INTERSTATE OVERLAY AND 4, THE JVL OVERLAY.
AND THEN I TOUCHED ON CROSS REFERENCES.
JUST TO GET INTO DETAIL WHAT THAT IS.
EVERY SINGLE ARTICLE GENUINELY REFERENCES ANOTHER ONE.
ON THE FAR LEFT IS THE USE MATRIX.
IT MAKES REFERENCES TO OUR ARTICLE 34 DEFINITIONS.
SO, WE HAVE TO CHANGE THAT. NOT ONLY TO CHANGE IT FROM ROMAN NUMERALS TO ARABIC NUMERALS BUT ALSO TO INCREASE THE NUMBERING.
AND THEN YOU CAN SEE SOME OTHER EXAMPLES OF CROSS REFERENCE CHANGES THAT WE'LL BE MAKING.
A LOT OF REFERENCES TO ARTICLE 5.
OBVIOUSLY THAT'S THE USE CHART. A LOT OF REFERENCES TO PARKING, LANDSCAPING AND WE'LL CLEAN THOSE UP OR HAVE CLEANED THOSE UP TO MAKE THOSE MATCH WITH THE OVERALL ARTICLE STRUCTURE THAT WE HAVE.
SO, PRETTY STRAIGHT FORWARD. I GUESS THE BIG QUESTION, WHY ARE WE DOING THIS? FOR BETTER ORGANIZATION.
BETTER ORGANIZATION NOT JUST FOR STAFF, BUT ALSO FOR OUR DEVELOPERS, OUR RESIDENTS CITIZENS AND ANY USER OF THE CCO.
AND, I BELIEVE THAT TOUCHES ON EVERYTHING I HAVE.
I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE THEM.
>> COMMISSIONERS, ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF? NO? THANK YOU MR. RHOTEN.
I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR TESTING MY ROMAN NUMERAL SECOND GRADE EDUCATION AND GLAD TO SEE IT IS CHANGING OVER TO ARABIC NUMBERING SYSTEM AS WELL.
>> THANK YOU ALL. THIS IS PUBLIC HEARING.
ANYONE WHO WANTS TO COMMENT OR OPINION YOU MAY COME FORWARD AND DO SO AT THIS TIME.
DOES ANYONE ON THE COMMISSION HAVE ANY FINAL QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS OR WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION CONCERNING AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 6?
VICE CHAIR PENDLETON. >> THANK YOU MR. CHAIRMAN.
I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND APPROVE ITEM NUMBER CASE PLZT2026-006 CZO TEXT AMENDMENT-ARTICLES RESTRUCTURE.
>> THANK YOU VICE CHAIR PENDLETON.
COMMISSIONER FOSTER. >> I SECOND THE MOTION.
>> THANK YOU COMMISSIONER FOSTER.
MOTION MADE BY VICE CHAIR PENDLETON AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER FOSTER TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND APPROVE CASE PLZT20260006.
[00:25:04]
TEXT AMENDMENT. ARTICLE RESTRUCTURE.ANY DISCUSSION ON THE MOTION BEFORE WE MOVE TO A VOTE? IF NOT, LET'S MOVE TO A VOTE. COMMISSIONER OVERHOLT.
THE MOTION PASSES UNANIMOUSLY WITH COMMISSIONER SORTER BEING ABSENT.
THE MOTION WAS FOR AND DID PASS, THIS CASE WILL BE FORWARDED TO CITY COUNCIL MEETING SCHEDULED FOR IT APRIL 7, 2026.
THANK YOU. SO, THAT IS THE LAST AGENDA
[OTHER BUSINESS]
ITEM. IS THERE BUSINESS OR STAFF REPORTS?>> WE HAD ONE ITEM BEFORE COUNCIL [INAUDIBLE] AUTO SALES AND APPROVED BY COUNCIL.
>> THANK YOU MR. SHAPIRO. WITH THAT, I'M ADJOURNING THE MEETING AT 755--655. THAT WAS A LONG MEETING.
