The Highland City Council voted on Sept. 15 to adopt two new ordinances regarding zoning and transportation rules, according to a legal notice posted on the city's website.
The council approved measures that allow for small-animal veterinary clinics and urgent care facilities within the city's Commercial Retail zone.
Ordinance O-2026-30 designates veterinary clinics as a permitted business use in the CR zone. This zone includes the Highland Mains commercial development located at 5378 N 11000 N.
Additionally, Ordinance O-2026-31 was adopted to update regulations for motor vehicles, electric bikes, and other devices used on Highland's roadways, sidewalks, trails, and parks. The source did not report specific details regarding age requirements, e-bike class restrictions, or speed limits.
Interested residents can review the full text of these ordinances at the Highland City Recorder's office, located at 5400 W. Civic Center Drive, Monday through Thursday from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.
