Planning Committee - Oct 8, 2026
A proposed 34-unit townhome project on Graham Road is waiting on a conditional use permit. The committee held it in committee while city staff sort out questions about how the zoning review criteria apply.
Planning Commission (Regular) - Feb 10, 2026
A 34-unit townhome-style rental project is proposed on 4.75 acres near Robinwood Apartments and single-family homes. Commissioners support the design but want 28 units to avoid a variance; neighbors object to traffic, tree loss, and stormwater ponds.
