We covered a lot of important items tonight at the #cville #capitalimprovementplan worksession with staff. Above all though I am amazed at how far we have come over the years at generating a document that makes financial and mathematical sense and that is responsive to public needs. We still have room for improvement (transportation) but we are moving. #publicservice #budgetsarevaluesdocuments

I see two items on the agenda:
1. Capital Improvement Program (30 min)
2. Development Code Discussion
These might seem familiar because they are the two things that a Planning Commission is traditionally responsible for: regulation of land use and spending to support land use. This might be a big night! #zoning #capitalimprovementplan #budgetsarevaluesdocuments

City Council voted to revise the City’s Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) policy by barring properties with five or more units from qualifying for a CIP application. Ken Der explains the outcome of the the months-long debate, sparked by outrage from tenants of South Shore Apartments as the property owners attempted to recover $24M in construction costs through rent increases.
