Planning Department
The Housing, Ordinance and Policy (HOP) team regularly processes comprehensive updates in order to ensure that the Code is in compliance with State law and is responsive to the City's changing land use needs. Information regarding past comprehensive updates can be found below. In some instances, all amendments were adopted by the City Council with a single ordinance. In other instances, the comprehensive update package may have included two or more ordinances.
In addition to comprehensive updates, the HOP team also processes single-issue LDC updates.
The 2021 Code Update was adopted by the City Council on December 13, 2021 as Item 204 and received the second reading on January 11, 2022 as Item 62.
