The first step is adopting a resolution of intent to designate the Hwy 99 Subarea as a Residential Target Area for implementation of the MFTE and schedule a public hearing on August 15. Following the public hearing, a second resolution is required to designate. Minor code amendments will be required to add the Hwy 99 Subarea.
