Mounds �Ti�w Flanrvng Commission <br />�'age 2 <br />August 1, 1997 <br />size or less, and additions to detached garages, accessory buildings and driveways which do not <br />require a conditional use permit be added io this list. This would simpiify the process for <br />horrteowners who want to add porches, decks, patios and room additions, <br />With respect to the second issue, staff is proposing that two different terms be used for permits. <br />When the term "wetiand alteration pemut" is used for activities in the wetiand buffer, it creates <br />confusion for citizens, because it sounds Iike work is being cor�templated or allowed in the <br />wetland. Creating a separ�te "wetland buffe�' pernzit would elirrunate this confusion. <br />A cogy oiihe proposed ordinance revisions is attached_ �Nhat follows is a detaileci list of th� k�y <br />changes. <br />Page 2 Creating two rypes of pernuts: wetland alteration and wetland bu�er pernlits. <br />Using the term "W�ti11ri(� 3.It�F8�i0T1 ��IITIi�" fbr all pernuts, whether they axe in the <br />buf%r or ir� the wetiand itself , causes some cojifusion wiih ciiizens and. applicants <br />and often gives ihe wrong impression that work will be done in the wetland when <br />it will not. <br />�rovision has been made where a project overlaps between the wetland and the <br />buffer that only one pemut is required, and it shall be reviewed by the Ciiy Counci� <br />if any of the activitie5 require City Council action. <br />Page 3-5 �tandards for Approval of Permits has been reorganized to group items ander <br />�opics, so the discussion in staff reports of whether or not standards have been met <br />can be done by topic rather than for 21 criteria. <br />Page 5-6 Standards for Denial of Pernrnitits are the same as aze now in the ordinance, but are <br />underlined hecause they have been moved from Seciian 1010.09. <br />Page 6-7 Building and struciural additions to a principai building where the addition does <br />not exceed I264 square feet have been added to items which can be approved 6y <br />Administrative Authority i.e. Director of Community Development_ The revisions <br />also clarify that additions to detached garages, accessory tiuildings and dri�veways <br />which do not requir� a conditional use permit, can he approved by Adtarinistrative <br />Authoriiy. <br />Pag� 8 The considerations in granting approval are stricken because they have b�en <br />moved from this section to Page 1�. <br />Page 10 Cla�-ifes that actio� by City Cot�nci! is to be done by resol�ation, and actior� by th� <br />
