Zoning Code Revision for Office Uses
BACKGROITND
At the October 20, 1982 meeting, members of the Planning Agency voiced
concern over the predominance of office development proposals in
commercially zoned areas. In an effort to ensure that more commercial
projects are encouraged in these areas, the Agency suggested the Planning
staff draft a revised regulation for office uses in the commercial
districts.
The attached Zoning Code amendement would modify the General Regulation
section (see attachment). A subsection would be added to the provision
which requires use permit approval for specific projects or activities.
RI~CO~4END~D AG"~ION
If the draft ordinance meets with the intentions of the City Council,
direct staff to advertise a date for public hearing.
