Council hears second reading of zoning ordinance changes on setbacks, parking and signs
Summary
Staff read multiple sections of a zoning ordinance at second reading—citing higher residential setbacks, downtown outfall-sale alignment, parking and driveway rules, a sidewalk fee provision, and sign rules on city property—and said no changes were made since the prior reading; a motion was made and seconded but no final vote is recorded in the transcript.
An unidentified staff speaker presented a second reading of a zoning ordinance that included several technical changes and clarifications. The presenter cited raising residential setbacks to 20 feet (sections 2.4/2.5), alignment of outfall-sale standards in downtown and business districts, adjustments to parking and driveway requirements for residential developments (section 4.5.5), use of a sidewalk fee to support city projects, and rules governing legal signs on city-owned property in the overlay (section 4.10.6).
The presenter stated, "Nothing's changed since the last reading," and invited questions from council members. The moderator then noted a motion was in order, recorded a second, and referenced Council Member Rosha as the mover and Council Member Pamerton as the seconder for discussion. The transcript does not record a subsequent roll-call or final vote on the ordinance in the segments provided.
The items recited are largely technical zoning adjustments that staff characterized as unchanged from the prior reading. The meeting moved on after the motion and second were recorded; no ordinance adoption or defeat is documented in the available transcript segments.
