Date discrepancy in document
The meeting header reads "Tuesday September 30th, 2026," but the footer, certification page, and internal agenda headers consistently reference "09/30/2025." The certification signed by Jonathan Teerlink also states "September 30th 2025." The minutes were approved on February 17, 2026.
Public Comment — Ron Hilton
, address given as 2394 East Murray Holladay Rd.: Submitted a handout with an enlarged section of the future land use and transportation improvements maps. He raised two concerns:
- A historical change to the land use map near Holladay Village that he believes should be reflected in the new plan.
- The category assigned to Murray Holladay Road in the transportation map, which he argued does not reflect the reality of the street. He noted a prior application to reclassify the road was withdrawn in anticipation of the General Plan update.
The public hearing was left open following the continuation vote, allowing additional public comment at a future meeting.
No work session was held prior to the regular meeting.
The interactive online portal developed as part of the General Plan update was discussed as a potential tool for the public and commission to indicate sentiment and policy preferences, though Jonathan Teerlink clarified the General Plan itself provides guidance, while the portal can support background findings.

Minutes certified by Jonathan Teerlink, CED Director. Approved: February 17, 2026.
