1.Discussion with the City Council regarding Downtown District Zoning
A discussion ensued as the Planning and Zoning Commissioners explained several of the
amendments that they had made to the proposed ordinance. It was suggested that a special
exemption to the DD be added for signs because so many of the existing signs are non
conforming. Also, discussed was whether surrounding property owners could opt in to the DD
zoning or not. The Planning and Zoning Commission decided to hold a special meeting on
Thursday, September 12, 2007 to make a recommendation on these revisions and get it to City
Council for their action.
