# Planning and Zoning Commission 10/21/26

The Longmont Planning and Zoning Commission meeting on October 21, 2026, considered two land development code matters; no procurement activity, contract awards, or spending decisions were identified. On a citizen-initiated amendment concerning contractor shops, commissioners discussed permitted versus conditional uses in the mixed-use employment and non-residential primary employment districts, along with outdoor storage, vehicle parking, operating hours, and screening near residential areas. The commission unanimously voted to forward PZR 2026-19B to City Council with amendments discussed, including removing the employee-vehicle parking requirement and revising the proposed screening approach. The transcript does not clearly establish the commission’s final recommended use designation for each district.

Staff also presented a Council-initiated proposal to allow attached single-family homes, such as duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes, in the RSF zone. Commissioners raised questions about lot-size and density limits, subdivision and ownership feasibility, HOA covenants, utility capacity, setbacks, and consistency with the comprehensive plan. They provided feedback for Council’s planned December 1 zero reading and sought further analysis; no formal motion was made on this item. The commission also unanimously approved prior meeting minutes.
