ITEM 1. WORKSHOP, PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO SECTION 39 "HL"
HISTORIC LANDMARK SUBDISTRICT AND SECTION 58 PARKING,
LOADING AND OUTSIDE STORAGE AREA DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
Development Services Director H. T. Hardy reviewed the proposed amendments to Section
39 "HL" Historic Landmark Subdistrict relative to off-street parking, loading, and
development standards and to Section 58 Parking, Loading and Outside Storage Area
Development Standards. The proposed amendments would modify the parking and paving
standards from either asphalt or concrete to allow an alternative granular surface for
parking, loading, and driveway areas for properties designated as Historic Landmark
Subdistrict. Amendments are proposed to allow ribbon drives (two, three-foot wide
concrete ribbons separated by a three-foot wide grass strip) as an optional means of
providing access to garages from the street right-of-way in the historic downtown area.
Brief discussion ensued relative to Council's support of Staff's recommendations. There
was no formal action taken by the City Council.
