2.   Report on Draft Subdivision Code - Joel Plaskon

Staff is in the process of drafting a rewrite of the subdivision code and
has made available a preliminary draft to the public for review and comment,
as of October 1, 2004.  The preliminary draft has been presented to and
reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission, has been posted on the
City's website and mailed to a long list of local development community
members in an effort to solicit input prior to the first scheduled public
hearing in front of the Planning and Zoning Commission on November 10, 2004.
A copy of the draft has been provided to Latah County for consideration and
input since Latah County will be asked to adopt the City's new subdivision
code for administration in the Area of City impact.  Staff intends to update
the October 1 preliminary draft based upon input from the public and various
City Boards and Commissions.  Staff will post it on the City website again
for review in the last week of October.  The Transportation Commission will
review the preliminary draft on October 28, 2004.  It is staff's intent to
bring a proposal in ordinance form to the City Council for public hearing
and consideration on December 20, 2004.

 

      ACTION:  Accept report and direct staff as deemed appropriate.

 

3.   Report on Suggested Code Amendment for Landscape Buffer Yards - Joel
Plaskon

A recent construction project in the Area of City Impact and complaint from
a property owner adjacent thereto has prompted consideration of adding the
Agriculture/Forestry (AF) Zoning District to the landscape buffer yard table
in the Zoning Code.  The buffer yard table in the Zoning Code is used to
require landscape buffering between land uses and/or zoning districts to
mitigate the potential incompatibility impacts.  "City-type" development
adjacent to farmland can create problems for and complaints about farmers
having to farm ground up to a property line which is shared with occupants
of higher density residential developments.  Adding the AF zone to the
buffer yard table would help mitigate this conflict by adding distance and
landscaping between the proposed developments and the farmland.  The
Planning and Zoning Commission informally discussed this matter on September
22, 2004, and agreed with staff's suggestion.

 

      ACTION:  Accept staff's suggestion and direct staff as appropriate or
take such other action deemed appropriate.

 

Reports:

Appeal on St. Mary's School CUP and Variances - Andrew Ackerman
