39. Staff Recommendation
• Planning staff recommends approving the proposed
zone change providing approval of a Vision Plan
amendment that would change subject property from
“Commercial” to “Industrial.”

40. Criteria for Approval
Whether and the extent to which the proposal is:
• Compatible with plans and polices
• Consistent with Zoning Ordinance
• Compatible with surrounding area
• Changing conditions that would require an amendment
• Effect on natural environment
• Meets community need
• Consistent with development patterns

41. Analysis – Basis for Recommendation
• With Vision Plan amendment, zone change would be
consistent with area development.

Undesirable Land Uses (LULU‟s) away from residential
areas, so request is compatible with the area in this
respect.
• Aside from Vision Plan amendment as previously
proposed, no other change is needed.
.
.

42. Analysis – Basis for Recommendation
• Environment would change with any development here-
commercial development would experience more frequent
traffic than infrastructure can handle- ML businesses
attract industry related traffic-not intense commercial.
• Zone change would not adversely affect conditions of
surrounding area- it would be more compatible.
• Continued ML zoning meets a community need. –
-Potential for bringing industrial businesses and jobs to
the area.
-City needs industrial clusters focused near major
thoroughfares and railways and away from residential
and more intensive commercial activities (safety).

• FIRST PUBLIC HEARING AND CONSIDERATION OF AN ORDINANCE
AMENDING CHAPTER 12 ENTITLED “PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT”,

AMENDING ARTICLE‟S TITLE TO READ, “MANUFACTURED HOME AND
MOBILE HOME REGULATIONS”; REPEALING SUB-SECTION 12.503
ENTITLED “SKIRTING”, ENACTING A NEW SUB-SECTION 12.503

PENALTY AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

60. The Problem
• Skirting is currently required for any mobile or
manufactured home regardless of status for living or
sale;
• This places an unnecessary and undue hardship on
business owners;
• Arisen twice in the last 2 years, but still needs to be
resolved.

61. Options
The City Council may:
1) Approve the Amendment; or
2) Modify and approve the Amendment; or
3) Deny the Amendment.

62. Staff Recommendation
• Planning Staff recommends approving the proposed
amendment to skirting regulations

64. Rationale
• Allowed mobile home dealers not allowed in zoning
districts generally placed adjacent to residential
• Classified as wholesale trade; only in CG with a CU
• Not eligible in CN, CO districts under any circumstance
• Manufactured homes at licensed dealers are not lived
in; neighborhood aesthetics is much less of an issue
