Title

Guidelines for Land Development Code Update (B)

Explanation

At the February 15, 2018 City Commission meeting, the City Commission referred a discussion item to the General Policy Committee to discuss developing guidelines around the annual update of the Land Development Code. The item referral was precipitated by Commission direction to the Department of Doing to prepare and draft various code revisions to effect changes to the City’s sidewalk regulations. These revisions were processed by staff on an expedited schedule.

The intent of this item is to allow the Commission an opportunity to provide direction regarding the process for annual updates and guidance on what types of changes warrant expedited treatment.

Fiscal note

None.

Recommendation

The City Commission: 1) hear a presentation from staff, 2) provide guidance on process and 3) remove this item from the GPC referral list.
