Adoption language. <br /> Review Process <br /> Planning Commission should review each of the sections of the draft ordinance, especially those <br /> in which a there are suggested standards or options for discussion. The goal of this review is to <br /> determine whether additional changes are necessary requiring further PC consideration. <br /> Questions to answer include: <br /> - Are we missing any `customarily incidental' uses or structures that should be addressed? <br /> - Are the proposed standards for each item in the listing clear? adequate? complete? appropriate? <br /> - Is there anything we should remove from the lists of permitted accessory uses? <br /> A final note - one comment PC made was that it may be helpful to have accessory structure <br /> setbacks listed at the end of each District in the table along with the principal structure setbacks. <br /> After warking through all the variable setbacks that might apply to various accessory structures, <br /> staff concluded that to such a table may be complex and confusing - so we chose to not do one. <br /> City Attorney Review <br /> The City Attorney has been asked to review the draft ordinance and provide his comments and <br /> recommendations. While he has not had a chance to review it in depth, his initial comments are <br /> that it is acceptable for discussion purposes and may need some refinement befare it is presented <br /> for Council action. <br /> Staff Recommendation <br /> Review the ordinance draft, re-open the hearing for public comments, address the three questions <br /> noted above, and if the ordinance is ready to forward to Council (with any recommended <br /> changes), take formal action to recommend adoption. <br />
