Item 81 - December 14, 2006

Conduct a public hearing and approve an ordinance amending Title 25 of the City Code to establish additional requirements for the location of large retail uses ("Big Box retail") in permitted zoning districts. Recommended by Planning Commission. (Related to item# 55)

The public hearing was closed and the first reading was approved on Council Member Cole's motion to approve Planning Commission's recommendation, Council Member Kim's second on a 7-0 vote. Staff was directed to look at code changes to require developers to verify trip generation after the development is completed and if there is a negative impact, to require the developer to mitigate the problem. Council Member Leffingwell made a friendly amendment that was accepted by the maker of the motion and Council Member Kim who seconded the motion. The amendment directed the City Manager to start a process of amending the code language so if large retail use over 100,000 square feet in gross floor area is desired, an applicant may either seek a conditional use permit or request that the Council consider allowing a large retail use over 100,000 square feet as permitted in the GR or more intense zoning district. In addition to the conditional overlays provided by the code, the ordinance establishing large retail as a permitted use may include all of the conditions currently provided for in a conditional use permit. The Council may consider the redevelopment of the site when reviewing the zoning request to allow a large retail use over 100,000 square feet as a permitted use and other factors currently considered for a conditional use permit. The City Manager shall present this item allowing large retail use as a permitted use to the Planning Commission on January 16th and back to the Council on January 25, 2007. Council Member Dunkerley asked staff and citizens to consider incentives that would draw the big box developments to areas where the City wants them to develop.
