Overview: Staff would like to share a status update with Council about the progress made since the January 5, 2022 Council work session. During that work session, Council requested that staff work with Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM), the contracted consultant team for Transit Oriented Development Planning and Unified Development Ordinance Visioning, and Business Street, the contracted consultant for the Housing Capacity Analysis & Community Dialogue initiative, to integrate the two project approaches.

Staff have since held several meetings with both consultants, including a joint coordination meeting, to:
* assist with the scoping of the Housing Capacity Analysis,
* establish joint baseline analyses,
* align project schedules and engagement opportunities,
* and discuss shared principles.

The goal of the Council discussion will be to share an update on the TOD + UDO project and Town Council decision touchpoints.

The Council will also receive an update on upcoming public engagement for the TOD portion of this initiative and next steps.


Recommendation(s):
That the Council receive the presentation and provide feedback.

Fiscal Impact/Resources: TOD Planning Funding (Grant)/Town General Fund-LUMO
