ordinance

The Pampa City Commission on Tuesday unanimously approved amending the city’s Landscaping Ordinance, adding a point system based on street linear footage and assigning values for various landscaping, plantings and existing trees.

The amendment also establishes a Landscape Review Panel, providing for potential appeals by business owners who may find challenges in meeting the new requirements.

Public Works Director Donny Hooper said the changes are concerned with water conservation. He added that the goal of the amendment is to make the ordinance easier for business owners to understand and follow.

“We made this user-friendly, more user-friendly,” Hooper said.
