PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER AMENDING ZONING REGULATIONS,
ARTICLE 6, SUPPLEMENTARY DISTRICT REGULATIONS, TABLE 6-1
MINIMUM MASONRY PERCENTAGE IN RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS,
REQUIRING CHURCHES, SCHOOLS, ETC, BUILT IN RESIDENTIAL ZONING
DISTRICTS TO HAVE 100 PERCENT MASONRY
APPROVED
Mr. John Pitstick represented staff, and explained that as a result of a recent
zoning case which involved rezoning property from AG Agricultural to R2 Single
Family for the purposes of building a church, the City Council has instructed staff
to draft zoning text changes to require non residential buildings allowed in
residential zoning districts to be required to construct with 100 percent masonry.
The current zoning ordinance requires 75 percent masonry in all single family
zoning districts, and 100 percent masonry construction in all non-residential and
multi family zoning districts.
This zoning text change would close a minor loop hole in the ordinance and
require all non residential structured allowed in residential districts such as
churches, schools, and post offices to be required to have minimum masonry
percentages, as required in non residential districts. Staff is recommending as
additional statement in Table 6-1 of Section 600 Masonry Requirements for
Residential buildings. A draft ordinance is enclosed for review. This draft
ordinance has been published in the newspaper and properly posted for the
Planning & Zoning meeting on Thursday, June 13, and the City Council meeting
on Monday, July 24,2000.
After discussion, the Chair entertained a motion. Mr. James Laubacher moved
for approval. Mr. Tim Welch seconded. The motion carried by a vote of 5-0.
