Revisions to Zoning Ordinance No. 480 -Q establishing special regulations for development adjacent
to residential areas.
Public Hearing Continued.
Chairman Wright advised the audience that this item was not ready to be discussed tonight. After
discussions with the City Attorneys and Staff it was decided to take a brand new approach to this
ordinance. Instead of zeroing in on specific areas and subdivisions the goal is now to broaden this
to cover areas not in specific developments.
City Manager, Curtis Hawk, said we are looking at the requests of citizens who have appeared at
public hearings, Planning and Zoning Meetings and City Council Meetings who would like to see
this apply city -wide and not to just certain developments. A change in direction has been decided
upon and time to draft the ordinance in a way appropriate to citizen concerns is needed. Plans are
to have the draft ready at the next meeting.
Motion was made to table this item to the May 18, 1995 Planning and Zoning Meeting and Continue
the Public Hearing.
