SUMMARY:

                                          

Section 12-11-3 of the City Code addresses amendments to the Land Development Code (LDC) and the comprehensive plan.

 

This section states in part,

 

“The city council may, from time to time on its own motion, or on petition, or on recommendation of the planning board or the zoning board of adjustment or any department or agency of the city, amend, supplement, or repeal the regulations and provisions of this title and the comprehensive plan.”

 

Further stating, “Every such proposed amendment or change, whether initiated by the city council or by petition, shall be referred to the planning board who shall study such proposals and make recommendation to the city council.”

 

This item seeks to discuss the process for getting items to and from the Planning Board, in the hopes of developing a written procedure that Council as a body agrees to and understands.
