Unified Development Code
Ms. Langon thanked Mr. Roth for his e-mail. City Council discussed the timeframe for the
UDC at their last meeting and directed staff to continue moving the project forward. If the
UDC can 't be before City Council until October, they may decide to delay it until after the
November election . If the Commission can complete the UDC and bring it to Council in
August, City Council will mostl y likely spend the money to publish .
Ms. Langon stated the Purpose and Intent section of Chapter 1 contains 21 statements .
She stated she looked at other municipalities' codes and most summarized their Code's
purpose and intent into a paragraph or a few statements. She stated she was able to
reduce the 21 statements to 9. Discussion ensued regarding the language contained in
Chapter 1.
The Commission also reviewed and discussed the Use Table contained in Chapter 5. Chair
Waggoner asked if telecommunication facilities could be prohibited in residential districts.
Ms. Reid stated they cannot be prevented due to federal law. Ms. Langon discussed the
difference between a Limited Use and a Conditional Use.
Chair Waggoner asked staff to look at permitting bed and breakfast facilities and hotels in
the R-3 and business districts as a limited or conditional use . Discussion ensued regarding
bed and breakfast facilities. The Commission suggested the UDC define "bed and
breakfast." Chair Waggoner stated he also believed parking garages, as an accessory use,
should be permitted in the business districts.
• General discussion ensued.
