The committee voted to repeal the minimum dwelling size rule so smaller homes would no longer automatically be treated as non-conforming. Staff said the current rule can make it harder to rebuild, alter, or enlarge homes under 1,000 square feet. The committee also approved a language update to the city’s alcohol insurance section, changing older wording and updating policy amounts to current requirements.
