Comprehensive Plan statutory compliance (EAR-based amendments)
Summary
State law forces the city to update its adopted comprehensive plan every seven years, with amendments due to the state by April 30, 2027. The bigger Imagined GNV 2050 plan remains shelved by Senate Bill 180 until at least October 2027, so the city is doing a compliance-focused update in the meantime.

Impact analysis
Primarily a staff time and ordinance-drafting cost; the board meetings and state review carry no direct resident cost.
The whole city benefits from staying legally compliant so growth rules remain valid and enforceable.
