C. NEW BUSINESS
1. City Code Updates – Accessory Dwelling Units
2. City Code Updates – Parking Minimums
Staff Liaison Lynch sent all Commissioners an updated draft of the zoning chapter of
City Code. They went through all changes. Changes discussed included updating
home occupations to allow them to be conducted within accessory dwelling units,
modifying the minimum size for accessory dwelling unit permitted in the city, the
permitting process for renting accessory dwelling units, adding an expiration for
planned unit developments, and different parking minimums for uses within the
city. Commissioners also discussed future changes that need to be made to City
Code, including possibly adding design standards while also decreasing the
necessity for planned unit developments.
Staff Liaison Lynch marked all changes and stated she would draft them up and they
could hold a workshop with City Council soon to go through these and gather
feedback on moving forward.
