WHAT'S NEXT?

The Commission is required to forward a recommendation to the City Council. The recommendation can be to adopt the proposal, adopt the proposal with modifications, reject the proposal or table the proposal. The Commission has broad authority regarding the recommendation. However, any recommendation should be supported by facts, findings, public input, and discussion related to the proposal.

The City Council is also required to hold a public hearing for both the amendments and the

development agreement. After the public hearing, the City Council may decide on the proposal. The council has broad authority on zoning amendments and development agreements and can choose to follow the recommendation of the commission, make their own modifications, or reject the proposal. The City Council is the final decision-making body.
