Home My WebLink AboutA002 - Council Action Form dated November 15, 2016 ITEM # 28 DATE: 11-15-16 COUNCIL ACTION FORM SUBJECT: CLUBHOUSE WITHIN FS-RM ZONING DISTRICT BACKGROUND: The City Council recently approved an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to allow for clubhouses as an accessory use with the FS-RM zoning district. Council completed the first reading of the ordinance on August 9th and the third reading on September 13th and the ordinance was subsequently published. After publication and printing of the ordinance, staff discovered that the wrong table of uses was included in the adopted ordinance. The FS-RL table of uses was used inadvertently, and it now includes the change which had been meant for the FS-RM table. A change just to the FS-RM was what had been intended. The following change was the intended amendment and was what was approved by the City Council based upon the recommendation in the Council Action Form: Chapter 29 FS-RM Table 29.1202(4)-2 Household Living Accessory Use Status Approval Required Approval Authority Clubhouse -NY --_SDP Maior --City Council ALTERNATIVES: 1. The City Council can approve on first reading ordinances to correct this scrivener's error, and to amend the Zoning Ordinance to allow a clubhouse as an accessory use within the FS-RM zoning district subject to approval of a Major Site Development Plan. Staff also requests second and third reading for approval of the ordinance. 2. The City Council can decide not to approve on first reading an these ordinances to correct this scrivener's error. However, this decision will elongate the amendment process requiring the restarting of the whole approval process. MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: The proposed ordinance corrects an unintended error in the previous ordinance. Due to City Council's pervious review of this item and direction to make the amendment to the FS-RM zoning district, it is important to correct the scrivener's error to allow for projects to proceed in conformance to the Zoning Ordinance. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council accept Alternative #1, thereby approving the text amendment allowing for clubhouses within FS-RM zoning and passing the ordinance on all three readings. 1 ORDINANCE NO.
