12-lot subdivision near Clinton Street (TTM 39042)
About 3 acres get split into 12 residential lots, with the city maintaining the road and retention basin. Lot owners would build later through standard building permits.
TCC Grant Reapplication Strategy
The commission's TCC grant application didn't win, but Commissioner Jimenez wants the city to take nearly a full year to rebuild a more transformative application, attend Strategic Growth Council events to build relationships, and possibly use the city's on-call grant writing firm to spot opportunities early.
Data center moratorium and mega-warehouse definitions
The City Council extended its data center moratorium so it can rewrite both the citywide code and more than 50 specific plans to fully prohibit data centers — a process expected to take about a year. The commission agreed to keep tracking the issue in 2027.
