Proposed Code Amendments

BACKGROUND
On March loth Staff presented a group of Zomng Code amendments to the CAP. The topics
ranged from mmor housekeeping or clanfication to policy deCISIOns about allowed uses and
development standards. The Committee chose a preferred option for each topic. Staff then
worked to translate this polIcy directIOn into code language and presented it to the Planning
Commission at a public hearing on April2Sth.
The Planmng CommIssion endorsed the CAP's recommendations for all Items except the new
design standards to apply to all single family houses, includmg manufactured homes. The
Commission did not want to reqmre that all new smgle-famIly houses have an attached garage,
front door that faced the street or a minimum roof pitch of 5: 12. They did support a mmImum
roof pitch requirement of3:12, wIth an exceptIOn process through the DCD DIrector for flat
roofs on architecturally designed houses.
The PC recommendatIOn was presented to CAP on May 24th. The Committee decided to
reinstate their original design standards, however they wanted allow detached garages for alley
accessed lots only. The proposal was then presented to the COW on June 13th. They discussed
the single famIly design standards and set a publIc hearing for July lSth. No public comments
were received at that hearing, however the Council opted to further modify the single family
standards. Their recommendations were:
a) A one car or larger garage (can be attached or detached);
b) A front door facing the front yard setback for lots 40 feet or Wider;
c) A minimum roof pItch of 5: 12.
The ordmances have been modIfied to reflect these changes.
REQUESTED ACTION
ReVIew and adopt the draft ordmances.
