Resolution 2022-24: General plan amendments on moderate-income housing
Approved with conditions · 4-0
The community development director said an infill-study option was replaced with pursuing state grant funding. The mayor asked that park-fee language name only park impact fees, and the city attorney asked that state code citations be corrected. Gibbons moved approval with two amendments limiting the graphic to park impact fees tied to new moderate-income housing and updating state code references. Council Member Fotheringham noted a constituent's impact fee concern; members agreed broadly eliminating impact fees was not appropriate but a park impact fee exception was feasible.
