3 issues in development
Desert Knoll Subdivision (137 homes)
The city's only active residential subdivision after next August got the green light — 137 houses near Two Mile Road that supporters say add housing, property tax, and a path to more affordable stock, while critics flagged wildlife, noise, and the wastewater plant.
PAAC Committee Vacancies and Leadership
Chair Paul Razo resigned and two more terms expire in December, so the committee agreed to advertise the openings fast. Vice Chair Lyons was elected the new Chair.
Rescission of the Ofland Resort Project
The council started the process of erasing all of the Ofland Resort's approvals — rezoning of APN 0614-121-15, a general plan amendment, and a conditional use permit. The project that was once approved for commercial tourist use is now being unwound; a second reading and final vote remain.
