§ 28.70

This Article is a library of recent Director and Planning Commission Interpretations (aka Determination Letters) of the Zoning Ordinance made pursuant to Article I, Division 2. Over time, these decisions will be incorporated into the Zoning Ordinance's main text and deleted from this Section following the procedure listed in Section 28.70.050. Until they are, they can be referenced here, and have the full force and effect of the Zoning Ordinance.

(Ord. No. 503, 12-16-2014)

Once written and executed, Determination Letters are to be distributed to the City Council, Planning Commission, City Clerk and other City staff. The letters are also to be offered as part of any Zoning Ordinance sales. Determination Letters should be filed in this Article, in chronological order, behind the Section page for the appropriate decision making body.

(Ord. No. 503, 12-16-2014)

When needed, Determination letters may be referenced by the Section Number (Division 2 for Director Determination Letters and Division 3 for Planning Commission Determination letters) and then by the date and title of the determination.

(Ord. No. 503, 12-16-2014)

The placement of five Determination Letters in this Article shall cause the Director to initiate a review of all Determination Letters for inclusion in the Zoning Ordinance. Said review shall be presented to the Planning Commission in the form of a text amendment proposal within 90 days of the distribution of the fifth letter.

The amendment process shall then proceed as outlined in Section 28.63.020. Once action is taken by the City Council to either incorporated or dismiss the contents of the Determination Letter, the Letter shall be removed from this section and archived.
