On February 24, 1992, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 6-92
amending provisions of the Municipal Code and Zoning Ordinance
relating to Planning Commission, Planning Director, and Zoning
Administrator authority; Administrative Conditional Use Permit,
ITEM NO. 9.

COPIES TO: General/Agenda File
PAGEOF.
Conditional Use Permit, Parcel Maps, Signs, Site Development Review,
and establishing a new Zoning Clearance process. This ordinance will
become effective March 25, 1992.
In order to implement the Zoning Clearance provisions, the
Planning Commission will need to adopt Standard Requirements for the
following Zoning Clearance uses:
1. Christmas tree sales lot or other seasonal/holiday
sales lot as determined by the Planning Director;
2. Pumpkin patch/sales lot;
3. Neighborhood/school/church festivals located on -site;
4. Temporary construction trailer;
5. Grand -opening Temporary promotional signs;
6. Temporary promotional signs. Promotional signs 30-day
time frame;
7. Temporary off -site sale or lease signs;
8. One identification sign per parcel.
The intent of the Zoning Clearance process is to expediate the
processing time for certain temporary uses by allowing Staff to review
and take action on routine temporary uses. A request for a Zoning
Clearance could essentially be handled over the counter or within a
couple of days, provided that the proposal complies with the City's
Standard Requirements (see Attachments 1-9, Draft Standard
Requirements).
An approved Zoning Clearance request will be subject to
compliance with all the Standard Requirements (for that particular
type of use) adopted by the Planning Commission unless a specific
Standard Requirement is clearly not applicable to the request. In
such a case, the Planner will indicate "waived" and initial the
specific requirement which is not applicable to the proposal. Staff
does not have the discretion to add requirements or conditions which
were not adopted by the Planning Commission as part of the Standard
Requirements for that particular type of use. Once action is taken on
a Zoning Clearance use, the Applicant will receive a stamped copy of
the application form, plans and any written statement submitted by the
Applicant, and the Standard Requirements for the requested use. The
stamp will indicate either approval or denial. The Planning
Director's action on a Zoning Clearance use is final except as
provided for in the interpretation/determination section of the
adopted Management Audit Ordinance Amendment. Under the
interpretation/determination provisions, any affected individual may
request Planning Commission review or determination, on a
nondiscretionary permit, within five days of the written decision.
Staff Recommends the Planning Commission review of the Draft
Standard Requirements for Zoning Clearances and adopt the Resolution,
Exhibit A, approving the Standard Requirements.
