Item 78 Passed 9-0

In plain language — from the agenda backup

This is a zoning request for the property at 3900 West Howard Lane out in the Walnut Creek Watershed. ICU Medical wants to shift the site from straight limited industrial (LI) to a limited industrial-planned development area (LI-PDA), which adds a customized development plan layer on top of the existing industrial zoning. Both city staff and the Zoning and Platting Commission recommend granting the change, and the Council will hold a public hearing before voting.
