Zoning map amendments (PO-1 near hospital)
Scaled-back zoning map changes after residents opposed a broad residential rezoning: square off the PO-1 professional office zone north of the hospital near 300 North and rezone the State Street eastern gateway from GC-1 to GC-2. Residents on 300 North have pressed for a residential buffer.

Proposed zoning map amendments
Discussed
Development Services Director Patrick O'Brien said the general-plan-driven zoning map (including eliminating the R1-9000 zone) was scrapped after heavy public feedback; residential zones (including R1-12 and R1-7500) stay unchanged. Remaining proposals: square off the PO-1 zone north of the hospital, affecting one residential lot, and rezone the State Street eastern gateway from GC-1 to GC-2 to favor restaurants and retail over warehouses. Councilmember Hunter relayed concerns from residents on the north side of 300 North about traffic and losing residential character, suggesting the south side of 300 North as the office boundary; O'Brien noted some owners are subdividing rear lots to sell to the IHC hospital campus. Hunter said the general plan consultant took a broader approach than staff intended; O'Brien agreed and said funding deadlines contributed. Timeline: Planning Commission April 15, open house May 20, council late June.
- Original citywide residential rezoning dropped
- PO-1 near hospital/300 North and State Street GC-1 → GC-2 remain

Municipal code rewrite and zoning
Discussed
Consultant Cherylyn Egner and Development Services Director Patrick O'Brien said the RA-5 agricultural protection zone was restored to the draft. Staff had proposed eliminating the R1-9000 zone and rezoning those lots to R1-7500 to avoid making them nonconforming; Councilmember Hunter said residents saw it as increasing density, and members discussed keeping R1-9000. ADU rules were deferred until after the legislative session. Members asked for zoning maps showing exact boundaries. Hunter, Taylor and Carroll each said they do not want density beyond what is already approved, noting infrastructure was sized to existing zoning. Setbacks were a major resident concern. A Planning Commission public hearing was set for the next night.
