Boarding Houses, Bed and Breakfast Inns and Residential Rental Units –

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.25in;text-align:justify'><font size=2
face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>The proposed Ordinance
amends the definition of "family" found in the current Moscow City
Zoning Code. Among other things, it reduces the number of people who can live
together as a single family unit from six (6) to four (4); it defines with more
precision what constitutes "living together as a single family unit"
and creates a category for people who are living together as a single family
unit but who are not married or related to all others. Additionally, the
proposed Ordinance creates a "residential rental unit" which allows
five (5) or six (6) people to live together as a single family unit upon the
issuance of a Conditional Use Permit in FR, SR, R-1, R-2, and R-3 and allows a
residential rental unit by right in AF, R-4, <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City
w:st="on">RO</st1:City>, <st1:State w:st="on">NB</st1:State></st1:place>, CB,
GB and MB. A residential unit is not allowed in the RTO or I Zoning Districts.
The attached draft Ordinance has been prepared pursuant to direction given by
City Council. The Planning and Zoning Commission considered the matter on July
11, 2007. Subsequent to the first Planning and Zoning consideration, a public
hearing was held on August 8, 2007 after which the Commission recommended
approval of</span></font> the Ordinance. <font size=2><span style='font-size:

Subdivision Code currently includes a provision that requires that parkland be
dedicated as part of any subdivision of property for development in order to
service the needs of the future residents and visitors of such developments.
The Code also provides for the opportunity for the developer to pay a fee in
lieu of the dedication of land where the circumstances of the subject property
or development warrant. Over the last few years, there has been some confusion
under the current Code as to whether the City has the ability to specify which
option the City believes to be in the City’s best interest, or whether
the developer is able to make that decision independent of the City. Staff has
prepared a draft ordinance for consideration (attached) that would clarify that
the City shall retain the right to determine whether to accept a dedication of
land or a fee in lieu of land for the Commission’s consideration. One
additional feature of the draft ordinance is the addition of a provision that
would allow the City to accept a dedication of land and improvements, thus allowing
the developer the option of providing a smaller but fully developed park at the
City’s discretion. The Planning and Zoning Commission conducted a public
hearing on this matter at their July 25<sup>th</sup> meeting and recommended
approval of the proposed Ordinance. Reviewed by the Administrative Committee
on July 9 and August 13, 2007.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
