Variance · Planning application
The planning director denied the request to place the larger shed closer than the required 5 feet to the side and rear lines on Jan. 7, finding the lot's shape did not justify it and that the shed would sit within a utility easement over an irrigation main.

Temporary use (1 day to 6 month) · Planning application
The city approved a temporary use permit for Azteca Tacos on Nov. 26, after the application was filed Nov. 24. The file describes a commercial building on a city lot but does not give further details of the temporary use.

Vacation of easement/right-of-way/plat · Planning application
Wendy Mosher sought to vacate about one foot of an 8-foot utility easement along a rear property line. The unit, built in August 2024 without permits, partly sits in the strip, which has no utilities, so the owner can now seek a permit. The council decided Dec. 1.
