Page 1 of 2 AGENDA ITEM – 3A MEMORANDUM DATE: May 28, 2025 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers FROM: Jessica Jagoe, City Administrator SUBJECT: Zoning Code Update Discussion Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: N/A N/A N/A Council Should Consider Council should discuss and provide direction to staff on zoning code updates within HKGi Summary of Work Session #2 memo and recommendations brought forward for consideration. Background At the May 12th work session, the City Council began the review of the HKGi Summary of Work Session #2 memo and recommendations. Feedback was given on the Lot Standards and Site Standards portion of the memo. During the review of the Permitted and Accessory Use Tables, the City Council tabled the discussion of the remaining items in the consultant memo to a Special Work Session scheduled for May 28th. Below are the remaining discussion items that staff is looking for direction from the City Council on which will then be shared with HKGi: • Principal and Accessory Use Tables – HKGi has prepared the proposed principal and accessory use tables for non-residential zoning districts. The consultants have made recommendations on revisions for naming of uses and optional additional non-residential uses to consider, as well as those uses for discussion of transitioning to Permitted with Standards. The consultants are not proposing to remove Conditional Uses altogether, but this would allow the City to apply the same conditions and would remove some barriers to development (i.e. application review time and expense). o Permitted Use has few additional standards beyond the usual lot and site requirements such as lot size, yard setbacks, height, impervious coverage, etc. o Conditional Use requires a public hearing to ensure that any potential impacts to surrounding properties are mitigated through conditions that are tailored to the specific use and circumstances.
