The Dalles City Council approved changes to residential density and regulations within the municipal code.  The changes came a little less than one year after planning commissioners noted ambiguities in the City’s density rules while hearing an appeal of a permit that was being denied.  Community Development Director Joshua Chandler told the Council the changes to the code include a new article on density, restructures multiple articles that reference density, and adjusts the comprehensive plan to reflect those changes.  Councilor Dan Richardson said during deliberations the changes tip the scale towards additional density.
