Naples planning commission advances Commercial Zone C amendments, allows metal siding up to 50%
Summary
The Naples Planning and Land Use Commission voted to advance changes to Commercial Zone C to public hearing, agreeing to allow metal as a siding material up to 50% of any one exterior face and to add a sight‑obscuring fence requirement for equipment storage.
Gwen Harrison, planning staff, presented proposed amendments to Ordinance 17.125 governing Commercial Zone C and asked the commission to consider updates prompted by legislative changes and by new or unlisted business types.
The commission discussed material and use standards. Commissioners reached consensus to permit metal as an allowable siding material but limit any single siding material to 50% of a building face. Chair Kevin Hiatt identified an item that appears listed both as a permitted and a conditional use and said it needs to be clarified in the text. Commissioner Masen Holmes asked staff to add language requiring a sight‑obscuring fence for outdoor storage of equipment.
Chris Clark moved to approve the proposed changes and send the ordinance to a public hearing; Masen Holmes seconded. The motion carried with Aye votes recorded from Chris Clark, Kevin Hiatt and Jessy McKee. Masen Holmes was recorded as present but not voting at the meeting.
The proposed amendments will be scheduled for a public hearing; a date was not specified during the meeting.
