• a council initiate or a planning commission initiated case planning commission can, uh, you know, vote to move

• Zoning and Planning Commission and the Planning Commission. Do we have an update on this item? Yes. Uh, Mr. Chappy

• Zap getting more specific rezoning cases. The majority of the planning commission cases are currently neighborhood plan cases and
• is. Uh, planning commission will get to keep the larger and, uh, more complex, more nuanced cases. And, uh, that
• expect that planning commission want to keep the downtown density bonus cases. And so those will remain, uh, planning
• broad idea and liked the concept of planning commission being more policy oriented. Um, whereas Zap take on site specific
