February recap

March 13, 2010

Oops…. I forgot to publish this.

There’s not much to report for the rest of February; the Planning Commission continued its weekly review of the draft LDC.  From the Planning Commission portion of the February Boards & Commissions report:

As noted in last month’s report, in February the Planning Commission continued its arduous weekly meetings on the review of the draft Land Development Code. The Commission is now finalizing the site development standards for residential zones which apply to the current built environment (not standards for currently undeveloped areas, which will be different). We hope to get this section finished and on the council’s agenda for their work session in April.

During the review process we’ve had the benefit of some excellent research and information provided by City staff, including statistical analysis of the current built area ratios on residential lots, and estimates of lot coverage of impervious service; information on performance standards and best practices for managing surface water runoff; and examples from different cities around the country as to how they handle various aspects of neighborhood compatibility standards.

We’re tired, but hopeful.

Here are the meeting agendas, materials, and minutes for February:
