What this means
The approvals allow the two subdivision proposals to move forward in the development process, but they are preliminary plat approvals rather than final construction approval. The board also recommended annexing approximately 1 acre for residential use and 5.01 acres for a proposed hotel and commercial lot, giving both properties access to city water and sewer services. It approved five home occupation permits except for one vending-machine business, which was denied because the applicant was absent, and denied three requested setbacks at 211 Woodbridge Road.
