This bill amends Section 30.201 of the Ordinance Code, specifically regarding the Planning Commission's establishment and membership, to mandate that three members be professionals educated or practicing in planning, design, development, or related fields. This modification aims to enhance the commission's expertise by ensuring a baseline of relevant professional backgrounds. The current structure of nine members and three alternates, appointed by the Mayor and confirmed by the Council for three-year terms, remains unchanged. The legislation emphasizes district-based residency requirements and allows for mayoral removal with Council approval. It also includes provisions for travel reimbursement and codification instructions. The amendment specifically targets Part 2 of Chapter 30, which governs the Planning and Development Department. The City Council approved the ordinance 17-0 on August 26, 2025, following earlier approvals by the Rules Committee (5-0) and Land Use and Zoning Committee (6-0).
