Stonecrest proposes citywide zoning ordinance edits to rename planning director role and align divisions
Summary
City staff presented a technical update to Chapter 27 of the zoning ordinance (TMOD25‑003) to reflect department name changes and to replace references to the "director of planning" with "community development director or his or her designee," and to change department references to divisions including building inspections, code enforcement,
City staff presented TMOD25‑003 on June 12, a proposed technical amendment to Chapter 27 of the Stonecrest zoning ordinance to update departmental names and references in the code.
The proposed changes revise references throughout the ordinance to reflect the current organizational structure: language that formerly read “director of planning” would read “community development director or his or her designee,” and references to a single department would be adjusted to identify “divisions” (for example, the Community Development Department’s divisions would include building inspections, code enforcement, code compliance, land development and planning and zoning). The presenter noted the ordinance is roughly 400 pages and provided representative examples of the strikethrough and replacement text.
Staff characterized the updates as administrative and organizational clarifications meant to align the code with how the City operates. Staff invited questions and told attendees the ordinance changes are illustrative excerpts and that staff would not read all 400 pages at the meeting. No formal action or vote was taken at the CPIM; staff said the item will proceed through the city’s normal ordinance amendment process and that public notices will be provided for subsequent hearings.
