Planning Commission Meeting - Jan 15, 2026
Trilogy Medwaste West wants to operate a medical waste transfer facility in an existing industrial building on Survey Road. The city would need to amend its zoning code to allow this use in the heavy industrial district and issue a conditional use permit. Residents near the industrial area may want to weigh in on traffic, handling, and safety questions.
