r'�/ A� ITEM 11 <br /> •tyof , TO: PLANNING COMMISSION <br /> iF1kRi• <br /> ver FROM: STEVEN B. ACH, CITY PLANNER <����,,�_ <br /> DATE: SEPTEMBER 28, 1993 <br /> SUBJECT: CODE AMENDMENT FOR ZERO LOT LINE <br /> DEVELOPMENTS <br /> ANALYSIS <br /> Zero lot line developments are currently allowed in all multi- <br /> family districts, C2 (Office District) , and C3 (Highway <br /> Business) zoning districts . The proposed amendment would also <br /> include zero lot line developments in both light and medium <br /> industrial zoning districts . In addition, the current <br /> provisions for allowing a zero lot line development would be <br /> moved from the section entitled "Yard Regulations" and listed <br /> as conditional uses in each of the appropriate zoning district <br /> text. <br /> This amendment will help clarify the process for approving zero <br /> lot line developments and give the Planning Commission and City <br /> Council the opportunity to attach any conditions that may be <br /> necessary when approving a zero lot line development. <br /> • Furthermore, a definition will be included in the zoning <br /> ordinance. This definition is proposed to include not only <br /> zero lot line developments for buildings, but also parking <br /> areas that are developed under a "shared parking" concept. <br /> Attached is a draft ordinance with the proposed amendments . <br /> RECOMMENDATION <br /> Staff recommends the Planning Commission recommend approval of <br /> the code amendment as outlined in the draft ordinance and <br /> deleting zero lot line developments from the the "Yard <br /> Regulations" section. <br /> • <br /> P.O.
