Title
Consider An Ordinance Amending The Driveway Ordinance To Provide Standards For The Josey Lane/Belt Line Road Zoning Overlay.
Body
BACKGROUND:
The area within the Josey Lane/Belt Line Road zoning overlay was developed prior to existing development standards for driveway widths, radii, internal storage and on-site development. Further, as roadways within the overlay area have been expanded and widened, portions of properties along the thoroughfares have been acquired for right-of-way, reducing the available land for development or re-development. This has also reduced the availability for construction or modification of driveways accessing public streets or alleys.
This proposed amendment is intended to establish special driveway development standards for lots being modified as a result of re-development in the overlay area.
This is a companion item to Case No. 06-15Z1 Josey Lane/Belt Line Zoning Overlay.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION/ACTION DESIRED:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of the proposed amendments to the city’s Driveway Ordinance.
