Duluth — Planning Commission, August 17, 2026
These minutes are unofficial. Duluth posts minutes before the council formally approves them, so this reflects the current public record and may be revised. The official version replaces it once approved.
The Duluth Planning Commission met in a special called session on August 17, 2026, in unofficial draft status. The Commission unanimously approved two text amendments to the Unified Development Code: one to clarify the definition of 'Household' (TA2026-007) and another to allow 'Indoor Sports Simulators' by-right in certain Highway Commercial zoning districts (TA2026-008).
