Honorable Mayor and City Council Members:

considered the following:
Amendment T-14 to the Unified Development Code (UDC).
After staff presentation Vice Chairperson Linda Cowles made a motion to approve the
T-14 Amendments. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Mary Starr. The vote
was 5-0 and the motion passed.
Sincerely,
Ian Clowes
Planner II
On behalf of the Planning and Zoning Commission
Proposed Areas of Amendments and Amended Language:
Terminology/Clarification Changes
1. Planning Director terminology changed to account for City Planner, due to
organizational changes.
Section proposed to be clarified: 1.1.2.2 (a) (Page 1-7) Need to account for City
Planner. Proposed new language, should potentially now read Responsible
Official The Director of Planning, or equivalent, as assigned by the City
Manager, is the...
Section 1.1.2.2 Director of Planning
(a) Responsible Official. The Director of Planning, or equivalent, as assigned by
the City Manager, is the responsible official for the following types of development
applications and relief petitions:
2. Residential lots platted and recorded prior to February 27, 2006 are able to use
the setbacks from the Urban Land Use and Development Ordinance, as the side
setbacks are the only thing that changed when the Unified Development Code
was adopted which pertained to residential setbacks. This will help to address
non-conformity issues when existing residential homes are expanded.
Sections proposed to be clarified: 2.4.2.5 (2) (b), 2.4.2.6 (2) (b), 2.4.2.7 (2) (b),
should add a new number 2 which states that the side setback for lots recorded
prior to 2007 have a minimum of 5' side and a total side setback area of 15'.
(2) Size of Yards:
a. Minimum Front Yard-Twenty-five feet (25'); twenty feet (20') feet for cul-
de-sac lots and thumbnail lots.
b. Minimum Side Yard
1. Seven feet and six inches (7'-6"); except as modified below:
2. For lots platted prior to February 27, 2006 side setbacks may be
decreased to 5'with a minimum separation of 15'between homes.
3. Corner Lot:
a) Equal to the front yard when abutting a street right-of-way.
b) If the recorded plat indicates corner lots will be restricted to
front entry only, there shall be a minimum yard of at least
fifteen feet (15') adjacent to the side street of a corner lot when
the corner lot backs up to an abutting side yard and ten feet
(10') adjacent to the side street of a corner lot when the corner
lot backs up to an abutting rear yard.
3. The description in the land use classification Trucks (Heavy) and Bus Rental and
Sales should include sales as well as rentals — this was inadvertently left out of
the existing description.
Section proposed to be clarified: 2.5.2.1 (a) (Page 2-134) to add sales to the
language in the definition in addition to rental.
Description: The rental or sale of new or used panel trucks, vans, trailers,
recreational vehicles or motor-driven buses in operable condition and where no
repair work or intensive cleaning operations are performed.
4. The description in the land use classification of Accessory Structure (Residential)
refers to a nonresidential use, as opposed to residential, which is a typographical
error.
Section proposed to be clarified: 2.5.2.1 (a) (Page 2-116) to correct the
typographical error by changing the nonresidential reference to a residential
reference.
Description:A subordinate building to a building used for presidential purposes that does
not exceed the height of the main building and does not exceed thirty percent(30%)of the
floor area of the main building,and that is used for purposes accessory and incidental to the
main nonresidential use(also see Accessory Use).
5. For plat approvals that may not fully meet one or more of the Subdivision
regulations in Chapter 3 of the UDC, to allow for a P&Z Variance under the Relief
Procedures section of chapter 3. This is already current practice.
Section to be changed: 3.1.1.6 (f) (Page 3-11). Add an additional section stating
that an applicant may file for a variance to subdivision regulations. Such
variance will be acted on by the Planning and Zoning Commission.
(f) Relief from Development Requirements. An applicant may file for a Variance
from the Planning and Zoning Commission for relief of certain development
requirements such as lot width, lot depth. Or lot area requirements.
6. Currently, certain uses such as bus barns or warehouses which require
significant truck parking for the operations for the business have to also provide
the required passenger car parking for employees. This may result in excessive
parking spaces in certain situations.
Section proposed to be changed: 4.2.1.3 (b) (Page 4-21) potentially adding
language to the effect of"Minimum number of spaces for the use is required,
unless otherwise approved by the Planning Director", based on the particular
location or situation.
(b) Truck or Bus Parking Areas. Parking spaces used for the parking of trucks or
buses shall not be counted toward meeting the requirements of this section
unless otherwise approved by the Planning Director.
7. Clarify the difference between Yard and Required Yard.
Section to be changed: 5.1.1,1 (456) (Page 5-41) Add a definition for YARD,
REQUIRED which is defined as being equal to the required setback areas (front,
side, and rear) for a given zoning district.
(457) YARD, REQUIRED an area being equal to the required setback areas (front,
side, and rear) for a given zoning district.
Discussion Items

with the visual nature and quality of the masonry materials permitted herein.
(3) Trim Materials: Architectural metal and EIFS (exterior insulation and finish
systems)-may be utilized for window and door trim, fascia, or soffit.
9. Currently, a non-conforming site may increase parking up to 20% of their total
existing parking without triggering site improvements. This could be done
repeatedly without triggering the property being brought up to code.
Section proposed to be changed: 4.1.3.2 (b) (3) (Page 4-15) setting a time frame
between editions. Possibly 5 years.
(3) Parking Spaces Increase: An increase in the number of parking spaces equal to
or more than twenty percent (20%). Parking may only be increased by less than
20% once in a two year span without having to come into full compliance. In this
case, facade material requirements shall not be required
10.The current UDC regulation for structures over 50,000 square feet may result in a
large amount of articulation for structures over 50,000 square feet, such as a
warehouse. This may be excessive in industrial zoning districts.
Section proposed to be changed: 2.4.5.1 (d) (1) (Page 2-97) potentially change
regulations for buildings over 50,000 sq ft in M1 and M2, 1'120'.
b. Building articulation shall be provided as specified in the following:
1. All nonresidential structures fifty thousand (50,000) square feet in

twenty-five feet(25).

be used as a metro transit station, for example, cars and buses should be added
to the definition.

Terminal Description, add language to include passenger cars.
Description: Any premises for the storage and/or parking of motor-driven buses or
passenger cars and the loading and unloading of passengers.

Development plats, Final plats, Minor plats.
Section(s) proposed to be changed: 3.1.3.5 (a), 3.1.5.6 (a), 3.1.6.6 (a), to change

14.The intent of the Old Townsite is to encourage outdoor activities. Therefore, the
CUP was intended to only be required if outdoor seating was to be in the City
right-of-way. If located on private property, this was intended to be allowed by-
right.
Section proposed to be changed: 2.4.3.4 (c) (10) (a), to add wording stating a
CUP is only required for outdoor seating if the proposed seating is to be located
in City right-of-way.
10. Outdoor Activities or Uses. No outdoor commercial activities or uses shall be

Official pursuant to the City Building Code, unless expressly authorized herein.

districts within the Old Townsite may be permitted by a CUP. Outdoor
seating located fully on private property is permitted by right.
b. Outdoor storage, as defined by Section 5.1.1.1., is allowed only upon
obtaining a CUP and providing screening pursuant to Section 4.2.4.1
(d). In no case shall outdoor storage be permitted along any yard that
abuts any street or public right-of-way that is greater than twenty feet
(20') in width.
15.To allow for different parking regulations for shopping centers/strip malls,
dependent upon their overall square footage.
Section proposed to be changed: 2.5.2.1(a) (Page 2-155). For shopping centers
less than 25,000 sq. ft. the parking ratio will be 1/200 sq. ft. of gross floor area.
For shopping centers 25,000 sq. ft. or greater the parking ratio will be reduced to
1/250 sq. ft. of gross floor area. This change is proposed to be accomplished by
changing the current description of a shopping center by removing the square
footage language and adding the different square footage requirements parking
section of the land use table, based on the size of the center.
Description: A complex in excess of 25,000 square feet where multiple businesses are
located, characterized by shared common elements such as parking, sidewalks, and street
access.
Parking: One space per 200 square feet of gross floor area for shopping centers under 25,000
square feet and one space per 250 square feet of gross floor area for shopping centers that
are 25,000 square feet or larger.
16.Remove "Mortuary" and "Crematorium" from the Mortuary/Cemetery category in
the land use matrix and combine it with Funeral Home. Crematoriums and
Mortuaries are a better match with the Funeral Home use.
Section to be changed: 2.5.2.1 (a) (Pages 2-142 and 2-165). The Funeral Home
category will now be "Funeral Home/Mortuary (Including Crematorium)" and the
Mortuary/Cemetery category will now become "Cemetery (Including
Mausoleum)."
