Upcoming: Planning Commission (July 8)
The Planning Commission on Wednesday will hold a public hearing on a pair of land-use changes for the property at 2801 Redwood St (parcel 0420044105).

The application was submitted privately by Rory Skinner requesting the Future Land Use Map change.
The commission will also review and recommend updates to the six-year capital improvement plan for city facilities and utilities. Draft projects include a City Hall retrofit ($100,000), an electric overhead-to-underground conversion ($711,000), and electric asset replacement ($1,230,000).
