Regular City Council Meeting Monday,June 9,2014 Page 30 Roe suggested tabling any changes to Table 1005-1 in the "Residential-Family Living" use category. Mayor Roe stated that, to a certain degree, he needed to understand staffs rationale better, and why they didn't recommend changing it to conditional for attached single-family or multi-family in those areas, with others changed from permitted to not permitted. Mr. Paschke advised that most smaller corner nodes are Neighborhood Business designation for small or medium parcels, with the rationale that some smaller pro- jects or uses (e.g. row homes or town homes) may be suitable for those areas. If the designation was CU, it allowed a determination on whether or not they were appropriate. As it relates to changing more apartments uses to permitted in com- mercial districts, Mr. Paschke advised that staff saw no difference in that than in mixed use development, allowing housing as a part of the redevelopment with commercial uses on the lower level and rentals above, which was a goal of the Comprehensive Plan.

At the request of Councilmember Etten related to student housing standards (line 140, c), Mr. Paschke duly noted the maximum height of 45' in this section, while the remainder of code says 40 feet for review and consistency throughout code.

Sprinkler/ADA compliance Mr. Schroeder advised that the County Inn & Suites building was fully sprin- klered and handicapped accessible.
