In June 2004 City Council adopted the Growth Management Ordinance. The Growth Management Ordinance sets growth objectives for the City, establishes reporting requirements to engage the Planning Commission and City Council, and establishes criteria for the review and processing of development projects, including those requesting annexation into the City. The report is provided to the Planning Commission and City Council detailing the total number of housing permits finaled in a previous year and those anticipated for the coming year. She said the Growth Management Ordinance establishes two primary growth objectives: 1. the desirable population and housing growth rate should not exceed 6% in any single year; 2. The desirable population and housing growth rate should not exceed the average of the planned growth rate through 2025 of3% over any five-year period. There were 40 building permits finaled for new dwelling units in 2018. Based on the number of permits issued but not yet finaled, the City anticipates 62 new dwelling units in 2019.
