Beyond the routine docket, the Commission is scheduled to hear a rezoning application at 1800 Winslow Rd and two policy discussions covering correctional facility/halfway house use regulations and floodplain administrator qualifications. Several subdivision items return to the docket after multiple prior postponements.
