Lafayette planning commission backs revisions to objective design standards, directs staff to add pitched‑roof and imagery changes The Planning Commission reviewed draft phase‑2 objective design standards for multifamily and mixed‑use development, heard public criticism that the draft does not protect Lafayette’s "semi‑rural" character, and voted 4–0 to send staff‑requested revisions (graphics and pitched‑roof/height language) to city council with a recommendation of approval.

The Lafayette Planning Commission unanimously endorsed updates to design standards aimed at harmonizing new developments with the city's cherished semi-rural character.
