Council discussed and suggested holding off on executing a contract. We don't see major changes to the Comp Plan and we. have an Update Committee that is made up of members of our community that are on our Boards and Commission that are very knowledgeable of the City and the plan. We recommend moving forward with the Committee with a study to identify the changes needed to update the comprehensive plan as opposed tol hiring a group that will review the entire process. Staff suggested a Comp Plan update every ten years instead of every five years. The Mayor recommended to deny the Resolution authorizing to execute a contract with Peloton Land Solutions. Councilman Weaver stated that the expectation for the Comp Plan is that the plan is ap pretty good plan as is and it merely needs minimal tweaks. The proposal of $90,000 was not anticipated since a big revision is not needed and because oft this, staff suggested that maybe we don'tneed to review the Plan every 5 years but instead every 10 years. Weaveri indicated that he was not comfortable waiting a full 10 years but at this point didn't believe an external consultant was needed to tell us what we alreadyknow. Wel havea ag good Committee inj place that can review the existing comp plan and come back with their recommendations in approximately MOTION: DENYTHEAUTHORIZATION? TOI EXECUTE. A CONTRACT.
