Summary
The city is updating its zoning code to work with digital permit applications instead of paper, and fixing real policy issues: sheds can't sit in front-yard setbacks anymore, feather banner signs would be allowed as temporary signs, vision clearance triangles get measured from the right-of-way edge, and bright signs would have to follow outdoor lighting limits.

Impact analysis
No direct cost to residents, though digital permitting should make applications faster and easier.
Homeowners, businesses and contractors get clearer rules and easier online permit applications.
Residents hoping to put a shed in their front-yard setback would no longer be able to.
