Body
BACKGROUND:
This is a city-initiated request for approval to amend the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance (CZO) pertaining to conditional uses in the (CC) Corporate Commercial zoning district.
As this area has continued to evolve, shifts in market trends and development patterns have led to increased demand for retail-oriented uses. The City supports this direction and seeks to align zoning regulations with current development interests.
Two additional clarifying modifications are included with this request. The first removes the “allowed by right” designation for the “Temporary On-Site Construction Office, Temporary On-Site Hiring or Employment Office or Temporary On-Site Administration Office” use from the (LI) Light Industrial district. The second removes the term “structure” from the building coverage definition.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications on the current and future operating budgets regarding this request.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION/ACTION DESIRED:
On September 4, 2025, the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended APPROVAL.
Staff is recommending APPROVAL. The attached ordinance reflects the Planning and Zoning Commission recommendations and stipulations.
