Discussion relating to amending the entire table of land use in the City’s zoning code.

Mayor, Sandra Decker asked if the committee wanted to take-on the rezoning committee needs. All agreed. It was agreed that the TND committee will fulfill it’s obligations within 3-4 months and then would be renamed as the “ZONING” “ ad hoc committee. The TND committee would become a sub-committee of the Planning Commission. The original charge of TND was to look at design standards. The new committee will look at existing codes, make changes and create new zoning districts.

Review initial draft code.

Discussion of Draft #1 from October, 2006: Section 4. Land uses. It was suggested that Pg 2, #4 be changed from 15% to 20% and #7 be changed from 90% to 75%. We must define mixed uses better and Mr. Tim Schwecke agreed to look into this.
