Executive Summary

The council considered a resolution on first reading to schedule a May 6, 2025 public hearing on a proposed text amendment to the City's Zoning Ordinance (Case No. ZAC2025-00003). No final vote on the zoning change itself was taken, as the hearing date has yet to be formally adopted. The council also handled 18 budget items, 7 contracts, 2 public safety matters, and a handful of other routine consent agenda items.
