Palm District Plan to be postponed
Tuesday, November 22, 2022 by Elizabeth Pagano
Those looking forward to speaking on the city’s plan for the Palm District will have to look forward a little longer. A memo from Housing and Planning Department Director Rosie Truelove explains that, though a public hearing was set for Dec. 1, adoption of the Palm District Plan will now be postponed to at least Feb. 23, 2023. The memo explains that because the plan is part of the city’s comprehensive plan, Council cannot act without a Planning Commission recommendation that is still pending. Staff will still move forward with a briefing planned for the Nov. 29 City Council work session.
