He noted they will not be going up <br />as a result. <br />Senior Planner Gladhill explained that staff received a response from the County Planner, which <br />reiterated this will not trigger a change to residents' assessed value. Functional use changes may <br />occur such as residential to commercial. He suggested residents call City Hall or go to the City's <br />website if there are any concerns. <br />Councilmember McGlone asked Senior Planner Gladhill to explain legal non -conforming use, <br />also called grandfathering. <br />Senior Planner Gladhill clarified if a resident has been approved for a certain use or tax level <br />currently, the City cannot demand a resident change to conform to future regulations.
