Plan Commission Committees

Plan Commission Committees provide in-depth reviews of the issues that have been brought to the Plan Commission for consideration, also addressing negotiation, and formulation of a recommendation to the full Commission. The public is welcome to attend the meetings, but generally not invited to speak. Only under exceptional circumstances will the committee vote to accept public input of new issues, to ensure proper assessment of the petition. Special sessions will be held as needed.

The Combined Commercial and Residential Committee meetings are held the first Tuesday of each month at 6:00 PM in the Chambers in City Hall.

Other Plan Commission committees include:

Technical Review Members (Formerly TAC)
Executive Committee - meets as needed
Hearing Officer - meets as needed
Impact Fee Advisory Committee - meets as needed
