The zoning changes would reorganize permit types, clarify review timelines and fees, update land-division standards, and revise which uses are allowed in different areas. The proposals discussed would allow duplexes in certain areas, permit daycare centers in most zones, allow trade businesses in industrial zones, and exclude data centers from the listed uses. The council also considered funding for a police department wellness room and additional airport engineering services, but final approval was deferred to a later meeting.
