COU IL AGENDA REPORT ITEM NUMBER •Q
FROM: ZVRandy Rossi, Interim Counity Development Director; By: Gary
Price, Associate Planne
SUBJECT: Parking and Driveway Standards Amendment
CAO RECOMMENDATION:
Give final passage to Ordinance No. 1156 amending the Parking and Driveway Standards
as attached.
BACKGROUND:
The council passed this ordinance to print on December 12, 1989 with several minor
changes to the Parking and Driveway Standards text as follows:
To allow bicycle racks which may include security lockers (Page 3, Section E - 10).
To keep the requirement for turnarounds for driveways over 100 feet long rather
than the proposed 150 feet (Page 6, Section L - 1).
To emphasize drought tolerant planting (Page 5, Section I - 3 & 4).
SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS:
No significant fiscal or other impacts are anticipated from approving the revised Parking
and Driveway Standards. The Community Development Director approved a negative
declaration of environmental impact for the proposed amendment.
CONSEQUENCES OF NOT TAKING AN ACTION:
The current parking and driveway standards would remain in effect and would continue
to be applied in the design and compliance review of new projects. Approving the
revised standards will likely result in more efficient parking designs and more easily read
and understood parking design criteria.
Attachments: Ordinance 1156 (1989 Series).
