November Updates: Nov. 24, 2025

Land Use Code Update Unanimously Approved at First Reading

Thank you to everyone who has taken part in the Land Use Code update so far. City Council unanimously approved (6–0) the ordinance to update the Land Use Code at its first Council reading. This is an important milestone and reflects months of community input, technical work and public feedback.

The updated code is designed to be clearer, more consistent and aligned with adopted City policies. It also supports community priorities, including more housing options, sustainable growth and strong commercial areas.

Next Steps

City Council will consider the Land Use Code again at a second reading on Tuesday, Dec. 2. It will appear on the Consent Agenda, which means it's expected to move forward without discussion unless a Councilmember or a member of the public asks for it to be pulled.
