The public is invited to attend the Sept. 9 meeting to hear the City Council’s discussion and view a presentation by the staff addressing the City Council’s questions from previous meetings.

The purpose of this meeting is for the Council to decide the next steps in the amendment process. Because the public hearing has already occurred and the comment period has been closed, there will be no public comment period on these amendments at this meeting.
