JEROME - The Jerome City Council will hold a public hearing Tuesday, Nov. 17, on changing the city's zoning code to include accessory dwelling units, according to the council's posted agenda. The meeting begins at 5:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers, 100 East Ave. A.

The proposed changes to Title 17 of the municipal code would add a definition of an accessory dwelling unit, include the units in the schedule of district regulations and set standards for them. The agenda cites Idaho Code Section 67-6541. Ordinance 1257 is up for introduction as an action item.

Planning and Zoning Manager Ida Clark is scheduled to report results of the Emulate Cities Housing Analysis. The agenda does not describe its findings.

The consent agenda includes buying a 2007 dump truck for $45,016 and a 2017 end dump trailer for $25,016 for the Wastewater Department, and the Jerome Chamber of Commerce's Christmas in the Park event on Dec. 5. The city broadcasts meetings on Zoom; the link is available on request.
