EYE ON JEFFERSON: City planning commission to hear zoning proposals Dec. 30

Most of the Jefferson County government bodies will not meet until next year.

None are meeting this week.

However, the Port Townsend Planning Commission will hear proposed changes to various zoning requirements during a special meeting at 6:30 p.m. Dec. 30

The meeting will be at Port Townsend City Council chambers, 540 Water St., second floor.

A public hearing will include Title 17 proposals related to modulation, accessory dwelling units, cottage housing and the types of structures allowed in the R-IV zoning district.

In addition, the definition of “family” will be discussed as it relates to potential zoning changes.

Any decisions the commission make will be considered recommendations to the full City Council.
