WHEREAS, the City Council adopted the Integrated Development Ordinance (IDO) via O-17-49 on November 13, 2017; and
WHEREAS, section 52 of O-17-49 enacted a six-month delay of the IDO becoming effective, making the effective date of the document May 17, 2018; and
WHEREAS, section 52 of O-17-49 stated that amendments made to the IDO prior to May 17, 2018 may be heard directly by the full City Council or by a committee of the Council rather than first being referred to the Environmental Planning Commission; and
WHEREAS, from the time of adoption the City Planning Department staff and City Council staff has been reviewing the IDO with the public and City staff to identify errors or omissions in the text as it was adopted on November 13, 2017; and
WHEREAS, for purposes of this legislation, “Exhibit A” is the IDO as it was adopted by the City Council; and
WHEREAS, “Exhibit 1” to this ordinance contains a spreadsheet of amendments to Exhibit A that are technical in nature; and
WHEREAS, “Exhibit 2” to this ordinance contains amendments to Exhibit A related to regulations in the EDo Character Protection Overlay (CPO) and the EDo Historic Protection Overlay (HPO); and
WHEREAS, “Exhibit 3” to this ordinance contains amendments to Exhibit A related to fees to add a fee sheet to the IDO where there would otherwise not be any information on fees related to planning and zoning requests; and
WHEREAS, “Exhibit 3” does not raise fees related to planning and zoning requests, but rather carries them over as they exist in the City’s Code of Ordinances today; and
WHEREAS, “Exhibit 3” outlines new fees related to processes in the IDO that did not exist in today’s zoning code, however these new fees were determined based upon similar fees associated with procedures from today’s zoning code; and
WHEREAS, “Exhibit 4” to this ordinance contains amendments to Exhibit A related to the City’s sign regulations; and
WHEREAS, “Exhibit 5” to this ordinance contains amendments to Exhibit A related to the City’s Front Yard Parking regulations; and
