• <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: <br />CC MEETING DATE: <br />TOPIC: <br />BACKGROUND <br />AGENDA ITEM 6.A. <br />Paul Bengtson <br />August 11, 2008 <br />Zoning Ordinance Amendment <br />• Animal Control Regulations <br />• Non - conforming Uses and Structures <br />• Accessory Structures in Easements <br />• Minor Typographical Corrections <br />i. Second Reading <br />Ordinance Number 11 -08 <br />ii. Summary for publication <br />Resolution Number 08 -84 <br />The City Council enacted new Animal Control regulations within the city code with the adoption <br />of Ordinance Number 03 -08 on May 27, 2008. Several sections of the zoning ordinance deal <br />with animal control regulations, therefore it is necessary to amend the zoning ordinance to <br />accommodate the newly adopted City Code Chapter 503, which will become effective July 10, <br />2008. <br />Staff has also identified some additional unrelated issues within the affected sections that needed <br />to be addressed. These include amendments to align the city with state statutes in regards to non- <br />conforming uses and structures, and amendments to address the city policy to allow accessory <br />structures to be placed in easements under certain conditions. <br />Additionally, within the sections that amendments were already contemplated, staff has <br />identified a number of non - substantive grammatical errors for correction. <br />ANALYSIS <br />The proposed amendments are broken down section by section, indicating the reason for the <br />change. The full language is also attached to this report. <br />Section 1 Subdivision 2 `Rules and Definitions' <br />Subdivision 2.B 'Definitions' <br />Definitions proposed to be added: <br />
