The commission also addressed the amortization schedule for bringing existing non-conforming vendors into compliance by 2028 and debated the inclusion of 'services' in the vendor definition, particularly regarding health services and potential exemptions from health and safety codes.

City Of Moab Planning Commission Regular Planning Commission Meeting
The meeting focused on the City of Moab Annexation Policy Plan. Staff presented updates to the annexation policy, including a new annexation boundary map and anticipated land use maps for future annexation areas. Discussion centered on the necessity of these measures to establish a formal policy, secure a seat at the table for potential annexation negotiations, and prevent unauthorized city formation in the valley. Staff clarified that this plan is non-binding and acts as an advisory tool for future council decisions, rather than a promise to provide services. Commissioners also discussed the technical aspects of the maps and potential visual confusion regarding zoning colors.
