Discussion:
There was much discussion on different parts of the ordinance, such as the percentage of community space required in a subdivision, parking spots and loading zone requirements of businesses, and whether or not it will apply to existing developments or just new developments going forward. City Administrator Tom Ourada stated that most of the ordinance is pre-existing language that did not get updated. Ourada explained that the updated section is regarding neighborhood design standards and it gives active developments in our community the latitude to do some things they are wanting to do with their subdivisions. Other concerns will be addressed with the comp plan.

Discussion:
City Administrator Tom Ourada informed the Planning Commission that the comp planner we had decided on wasn't getting back to us on a proposal. Mayor Dave Bauer and City Administrator Ourada researched another company, Confluence, who responded and sent us a proposal within a week. Ourada spoke with one of the principals of the company, and they seemed very eager to help us make our comp plan successful and our community unique and beautiful. Confluence has 9 different offices and has done projects all over the United States.
