3 issues in zoning with high priority
Rezoning of 26.30 acres to B-2 Business District

Deannexation of 1.5 Acres at 4672 Coffeen Avenue
A landowner wanted 1.5 acres pulled out of the city to do a lot-line adjustment with a county neighbor, but council members worried it creates a county island surrounded by city land. Access and drainage problems on Trout Lane were at the heart of the dispute.
Joint Planning Area agreement with Sheridan County
The city and county will jointly update the JPA plan, with the city paying two-thirds of the cost; a consultant RFQ is coming and public forums are promised.
