<br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />DATE: 14 August 1991 <br /> <br />TO: Roseville Planning Commission <br /> <br />FROM: Philip Carlson, AICP <br /> <br />RE: Ordinance Amendment Related to "Minor Changes" to Approved Plans <br /> <br />At the July Planning Commission meeting, we discussed a potential amendment to the Code to <br />clearly defme what would be considered a minor change to approved plans. Attached is a draft <br />amendment to accomplish this. <br /> <br />We have added two more provisions to the language in the amendment to make the process <br />clearer. First, we had mentioned changes to the location, placement, and height of structures. <br />relating to the minor change provision. We have changed this to read "structures or outdoor use <br />areas". This will allow the City to scrutinize changes to parking lots, ballfields, loading docks, <br />etc., in the same manner as a change in a structure. For example, a project could have been <br />approved with parking set back 50' from a neighbor. Without moving the building, a change <br />could be proposed that would move the parking out to the allowed setback, perhaps only 5'. <br />Clearly, this is a change that should be reviewed fully. <br /> <br />Second, we had previously included language stating that the Development Review Committee <br />would approve a change if they found it to be minor. But we were silent on exactly what to <br />do if a change were found not to be minor. The new paragraph in the draft amendment states <br />that if the Committee finds a change is not a minor change, then the applicant must go through <br />the review process again. This should clear up any possible misunderstanding. <br />
