Member Comments/Announcements

KEVIN MAYO, PLANNING ADMINISTRATOR stated the November 1, 2023, Planning and Zoning
Commission meeting is cancelled, and the next meeting will be held on November 15, 2023. On
that date, there will be a small collection of code amendments that was previously discussed in
the work session held last month. Staff is diligently working on public notification and
stakeholder outreach and valuable feedback has been received and led to numerous
adjustments in the proposed code. He explained staff expects to bring the revised code
amendments before the Planning and Zoning Commission on November 15, 2023. Given the
substantial volume of amendments and the insightful feedback from the commission at the
work session, it is unlikely we'll be able to cover all the changes and input received, as well as the
subsequent modifications staff is arranging an extended two-hour study session, possibly
longer, to ensure we cover everything thoroughly.

CHAIRMAN HEUMANN mentioned that he discussed this with the Planning Manager and
recommends there be time to address each amendment in detail and potentially vote on each

amendment separately if necessary.

KEVIN MAYO, PLANNING ADMINISTRATOR explained staff aims to avoid a situation where one
item could stall the entire set of amendments and is considering best to manage the process.
Staff is working on a strategy that will allow the Commission to smoothly handle motions and if
something is not ready, be able to set it aside without affecting the rest of the items.

CHAIRMAN HEUMANN stated that is a good plan and he is glad that staff will be providing the
Commission with the packet earlier in the week, to give Commission Members more time to

review.

Calendar
The next regular meeting will be held on Wednesday, November 15, 2023, in the Chandler City
Council Chambers, 88 E. Chicago Street.

Adjourn
The meeting was adjourned at 5:42 p.m.
