From the meeting
At its September 1, 2026 meeting, the commission received PZC #26-8 and scheduled a hearing for October 6, 2026. The text amendment would modify multiple zoning sections to allow middle housing, create Section 46 for Middle Housing and its permitting process, and revise Section 71 Waterfront Business District and parking requirements. This is still open policy work, but it signals future development rule changes that could drive planning, design, and entitlement work.

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
