<br /> <br /> <br />1 <br />3 <br />MIG, Inc. <br /> <br /> <br />We will also prepare a detailed outline of the updated Zoning Code for City staff review. This outline will <br />be approved by City staff and will shape how the MIG Team performs its work. While minor <br />modifications to the outline can be expected as work proceeds, any substantive changes directed by <br />City staff once we have initiated the writing could result in rework beyond what we have budgeted and <br />would be considered additional services. <br /> <br />Subtask 5.2: Administrative Draft Zoning Code Amendments – Two Drafts <br />This subtask involves preparing administrative drafts of the Zoning Code articles, chapters, and sections. <br />The comprehensively updated Zoning Code will be prepared based on all input received from City staff, <br />the community, City Council, and Planning Commission, plus the agreed-upon approach for the five <br />Focus Areas. <br /> <br />We will draft the new code to follow the new format, incorporating extensive use of tables and graphics. <br />Key revisions to be made include: <br /> <br /> Creating zoning districts and unique standards for the five Focus Areas (using the agreed-upon <br />approach) <br /> Consolidating or subsuming into other zones the regulations for built-out specific development <br />(SD) districts to the maximum extent possible <br /> Incorporating objective design standards for residential and mixed-use zones (as required by <br />law), using the existing Citywide Design Guidelines as a starting point <br /> Creating standards to address transitions between new, higher-intensity developments to lower- <br />scale traditional neighborhoods <br /> Introducing new uses into the Civic Center area for activation <br /> Re-evaluating and revising open space requirements for residential developments <br /> Update the adaptive reuse regulations to preserve historic buildings and allow conversion to <br />housing <br /> Incorporating buffer zone provisions for the industrial zones <br /> Updating the sign ordinance to ensure content neutrality and address visual clutter <br /> Rethinking and reworking parking regulations to reflect evolving travel practices and vehicle <br />technologies <br /> Overhauling administrative procedures to simplify procedures and create greater transparency <br />With regard to administrative procedures, while the current code groups most in Article V, some <br />procedures such as those related to prezoning, home occupation permits, and sign permits are <br />scattered throughout the code. Within Article V, procedures related to specific permit types (minor <br />exceptions, conditional use permits, and variances) are grouped with common procedures such as <br />application filing, hearings, and public notice in one division. Subsequent divisions are dedicated to <br />individual procedures, including amendments, development project approval, and land use certificates. <br />Additionally, Division 2 includes allowances or requirements specific to certain uses, which may be <br />better located with the use standards themselves. <br /> <br />This organization and format of the review and permit procedures in the current code makes it difficult <br />to understand, compare, and contrast the rules for gaining approval.
