City Manager Robert Deis noted the inclusion of Phase 1 of the Development Code on the agenda of the regular meeting later in the evening. He explained that Council will not need to address the following agenda item—the extension of the moratorium within R-4 and R-6 residential zones on short plats of less than 7,200 square feet—if it approves Phase 1 of the Development Code.

Councilmember Ransom asked why R-8 zoning permits a minimum lot size of 2,500 square feet. Mr. Deis pointed out that R-8 allows a maximum density of eight units per acre.

Councilmember Gustafson noted the designation of appeal authority as the only potentially contentious issue in the proposed code.

Referring to the agenda for the regular meeting later in the evening, Councilmember Lee proposed that Council move items 9 (b) and (c) to the consent calendar. After discussion, there was consensus to place only item 9 (b) on the consent calendar.
