Commission agrees to correct Light Industrial L‑1 landscape surface ratio from 80% to 20%
Summary
Staff identified a likely typographical error in the L‑1 landscape surface ratio (displayed as 80% in the code); the commission directed staff to prepare an ordinance correcting the LSR to 20% and moved the correction on to the council.
Staff reported an apparent error in the zoning code that displayed the landscape surface ratio (LSR) for the Light Industrial (L‑1) zone as 80 percent when the intended standard is 20 percent. The change would align Monroe's code with comparable communities and practical development norms.
Shannon explained that the numeric values were flipped in the code and that staff recommended correcting the LSR to 20 percent; commissioners agreed this was a sensible correction and moved to forward the fix to the common council as an ordinance change. The commission voted to send the drafted ordinance to J (jurisdiction committee) and council for final action.
Staff will prepare the formal ordinance language and return it to council for adoption.
