ITEM TITLE: Public Hearing: PCA-87-3; Consideration of an amendment to
the Municipal Code to repeal certain portions of Section

Commission denial to first be referred back to the Planning

Ordinance ///9;1 Repealing portions of Section 19.12.110 of
the Municipal Code
SECOND F1tADIN(i AND AD9
SUBMITTED BY: Planning Di rector Ce. EIlQ1Y
REVIEWED BY: City Manager (4/5ths Vote: Yes No X )
On November 18, 1986, the City Council approved a request to rezone 0.19 acres
at 618 Fourth Avenue from R-1 to R-3-P-5 for Educare Children' s Center. Due
to existing Municipal Code requirements this item had to be referred back to
the Planning Commission for report and recommendation. Council directed that
that section of the Code be repealed.
The amendment is exempt from environmental review.
RECOMMENDATION: That Council concur with the recommendation of the Planning
Commission.
BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: On January 14, 1987, the Planning
Commission by a vote of 4-0 with two Commissioners absent, recommended that
the Council repeal certain portions of Section 19. 12.110 of the Municipal Code
as shown in Exhibit A.
DISCUSSION:
The provision in question was originally intended to give the Planning
Commission an opportunity to consider conditions, or other recommendations
which might be appropriate in the instance where a denial recommendation by
them is overriden by the City Council .
This requirement has been cumbersome and not particularly effective toward
improving or changing any particular Commission or Council action. It should
be repealed. This will result in a time savings to an applicant as well .
FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
