Committee moves to restore one parking space minimum for single‑family homes
Summary
City staff proposed a housekeeping amendment to require one off‑street parking space for single‑family dwellings. The committee voted unanimously to set a public hearing and found the ordinance consistent with the city master plan.
The Planning, Licenses and Development Committee voted to ask the mayor to set a public hearing on a housekeeping zoning amendment that would reintroduce a minimum of one off‑street parking space for single‑family homes.
Evan Clements, planner, told the committee the change (ordinance O‑2025‑09) corrects an omission from a recent parking table update and would restore a one‑space minimum for single‑family dwellings. “As tempting as it was to put a 30 minute presentation together for this 1, we're not going to do that this evening,” Clements said; he described the item as a straightforward housekeeping correction.
Nut graf: The committee agreed the change simply reinserts single‑family parking requirements into table 9.1 of the Land Development Code. Members voted unanimously to ask the mayor to schedule a public hearing; the committee also found the draft ordinance consistent with the 2010 Master Plan.
Ending: Staff will prepare the ordinance for public hearing and return to the committee and planning board as required by the review schedule.
