The committee backed a change to city rules so people with registered, well-kept pollinator gardens and naturalistic landscapes would not be fined for overgrown vegetation. The proposal keeps safety and sanitation rules in place for unregistered or poorly maintained properties, and gives owners time to register after a notice of violation. The committee also discussed new affordable housing financing ideas, including a tax-based grant model and a public ownership model, but no final action was taken on those concepts.
