Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The approved school project can proceed through the wetlands permitting process, but construction-related land disturbance must follow approved plans and required erosion and sediment controls. The approval expires August 6, 2031, and city staff must receive updated staging and restoration details after a construction manager is selected. For the larger development applications, the commission chose a narrated drone tour instead of a traditional site walk and authorized an independent third-party review of wetlands impacts and off-site mitigation.
