On January 26, City staff released an update of the proposed environmental zone maps. The revised maps reflect the results of site visits by staff and new wetland mapping. On February 9, the project team will share updates on the Ezone Map Correction Project with the PSC and respond to commissioners’ questions and concerns raised in public testimony.
