The General Policy Committee approved a recommendation to direct staff to draft an ordinance for Petition LD25-000058. The ordinance includes approving assessment areas, exempting certain developments (banks, grocery stores in East Zone, 100% affordable units, single family, duplexes, accessory dwelling units on infill lots, change of use in existing buildings, lot splits), providing a 90-day transition period, phasing fees over 4 years, requiring fee payment before development order approval, providing offsets for previous uses, and creating a category for Electric Vehicle charging stations. The motion was to approve as recommended but hold on bringing back for first reading. The committee also heard an update on the Sister Cities Program and discussed the Cotton Club Museum and Cultural Center air conditioning issue, directing the City Manager to work on a plan and staff to assist through the Business Improvement Grant process. The meeting also included approval of minutes from a previous meeting and a discussion on the Mobility Plan Update and Fee Schedule.
