Re: Recommendation to City Council
Proposed Ordinance Amending Section 110-557, to Allow Commercial
Parking Facilities by Special Exception in the C-1, M-1 and C-2 Zoning
Districts
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On April 14, 2010, the Planning and Zoning Board considered an application submitted by �-
Mr. John Porter to amend the City Code to allow commercial parking facilities in th'14 <7 Yl�\v
iei as a permitted use. The Board directed the City Attorney to prepare an
ordinance amending the Code to authorize commercial parking facilities by special
exception in the C-1, C-2 and M-1 zoning districts. The Board met again on May 12, 2010 to U�d
review the ordinance and make a recommendation to the City Council regarding adoption of
the ordinance. At the conclusion of the May 12th meeting, and after much discussion, the
Board was unable to reach a consensus regarding whether or not to recommend the Council
to adopt the proposed ordinance. The item was postponed until the Board's next meeting.
The Board met a third time on May 26, 2010 to review the proposed ordinance and at the
conclusion of the discussion, voted 4-1 against recommending approval of the
ordinance. However, recognizing that the ordinance would still be presented to the City
Council for consideration, the Board desired to include in its recommendation that if the
ordinance were approved by City Council, that the following few modifications be
considered:
• Section 110-557 (b)(1) --Page 3 of 5-- The Board recommends that the distance
limitation be increased to one-half (1/2) mile between each commercial parking
facility.
Section 110-557(b) (9) -- Page 4 of 5 - The Board recommends that the hours of
operation provision be deleted in its entirety.
