To assist in that <br />discussion, staff would like the Planning Commission to provide input on topics that might be <br />addressed at this meeting. While the Council will make the final determination as to the goals <br />and priorities for the coming year, it will be useful for them to have input from the Planning <br />Commission. <br /> <br />City Planner Streff explained that the Planning Commission differs from the City’s other <br />committees and commissions in that the purpose and scope of the Commission’s work is largely <br />determined by State Statute. The majority of the Planning Commission work plan is dedicated to <br />continuing the work of evaluating and providing recommendations on land use applications, <br />zoning code amendments, and other planning related items that come before the City. <br />
