FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications for the City.

The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their July 12, 2017 Regular Meeting, voted 5-0
(Lucas absent) to recommend approval.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
A Notice of Public Hearing was published in the Pueblo Chieftain and Public Hearings
were held before the Planning and Zoning Commission on June 27, 2017.
ALTERNATIVES:
If City Council does not approve this Ordinance, Title XVII of the Pueblo Municipal Code
will not be amended to reflect the proposed changes.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
