He then handed out a revised copy of the Ordinance for review. <br /> <br />Chairperson Stevenson questioned if the City wanted to review footprint expansions or overall <br />expansions of 10% or more. He then asked whether the Commission should review a vertical <br />expansion if the footprint is not changed. <br /> <br />Planner Atkinson indicated that the gross square footage requirement would account for height. <br /> <br />Commissioner Hegland commented that he felt exempting single family and twin homes would <br />be appropriate as the Code would pertain primarily to commercial property. <br /> <br />Planner Atkinson asked whether the Commission wanted to review a parking lot expansion or <br />relocation. <br /> <br />Chairperson Stevenson indicated the Commission should review any major expansions or <br />relocations. <br /> <br />Director Ericson questioned whether the Commission wanted to review a 10% parking lot <br />expansion request. <br /> <br />Chairperson Stevenson indicated the Commission should review any request to change the <br />amount of impervious surface. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Stevenson/Miller.
