CLEAR & OBJECTIVE HOUSING: APPROVAL C RITERIA UPDATE <br />November 13, 2018 DRAFT Preferred Concepts Report: Maintenance Issues Page 8 of 59 <br />(f) EC 9.6775 Underground Utilities. <br />(g) EC 9.6780 Vision Clearance Area. <br />(h) EC 9.6791 through 9.6797 regarding stormwater flood control, quality, flow control for <br />headwaters area, oil control, source control, easements, and operation and maintenance. <br />(i) An approved adjustment to a standard pursuant to the provisions beginning at EC 9.8015 of <br />this land use code constitutes compliance with the standard. <br />Recommendation : Revise the language to ensure compliance with all applicable standards , instead of “all <br />applicable standards, including, but not limited to .” Add the following additional development standards to the <br />above list at EC 9.8100(4): <br />EC 9.2000 through 9.4170 regarding lot dimensions, solar standards, and density requirements for the <br />subject zone and overlay zone; <br />EC 9.6500 through 9.6505 Public Improvement Standards; and <br />EC 9.6800 through EC 9.6875 Standards for Streets, Alleys, and Other Public Ways <br />This project provides a valuable maintenance opportunity to address small inconsistencies between the existing <br />clear and objective review tracks. This change will make the conditional use language consistent with the code <br />language used in similar criteria for other review tracks. Bringing consistency between the review tracks adds <br />clarity and avoids the need to determine whether the difference in language indicates a difference in meaning. <br />COM-03 (B ONDING REQUIREMENT) <br />Description : One of the clear and objective approval criteria for conditional use permits and site reviews <br />requires that public improvements be constructed or bonded before the application is approved. The final <br />planned unit development criteria do not include a requirement to complete or bond for public improvements. <br />Instead, this is listed as an application submittal requirement. <br />Applies To : Conditional Use, Site Review, Planned Unit Development <br />Existing Code Section(s): 9.8100(5), 9.8445(5), 9.8360(4) <br />Existing Code Language : <br />(5) Public improvements as required by this land use code or as a condition of tentative plan approval <br />have been completed, or: <br />(a) A performance bond or suitable substitute as agreed upon by the city has been filed with the <br />city finance officer in an amount sufficient to assure the completion of all required public <br />improvements; or <br />(b) A petition for public improvements and for the assessment of the real property for the <br />improvements has been signed by the property owner seeking the conditional use permit, and <br />the petition has been accepted by the city engineer. <br />Recommendation : For conditional use and site review, revise the timing specified to construct or bond for <br />required public improvements to be prior to issuance of a development permit . <br />For final planned unit developments not associated with land divisions, add an approval criterion to require that <br />public improvements be completed or bonded prior to approval of the final application (similar to that required <br />for final subdivision). <br />November 26, 2018, Work Session – Item 2
