Property-owner notification of rezonings

Summary

Commissioners pressed staff on whether the city will individually notify the roughly 28,000 property owners whose zoning may change. State law doesn't require individual notice — the city gets to decide — and staff will consult the city attorney and consider options like utility-bill inserts.
