2. Annual Renewal of 5-Year Economic Development Plan The City of Roseville has a5 Year Economic Development Plan in which it forecasts new development and assistance necessary to create redevelopment on parcels which are either under-utilized or blighted. This program is revised annually by the Community Development Department, and is presented to the Planning Commission and City Council, usually in the spring in coordination with the Capital Improvements Program. Copies of the 5 year Economic Development Plan are part of section 7 of the comprehensive plan. 3. Zoning Ordinance Update In 2001 the City of Roseville approved three amendments to the Zoning Ordinance. The first amendment occurred in Section 1004.01, Accessory Buildings, which clarified the size, number, and placement of accessory buildings in Single and Two Family Residence Districts. The second and third amendments occurred in Sections 1008.10, Planned Unit Developments, and 1015.01, Amendments, correcting the majority vote necessary by the City Council on zoning/ rezoning actions to be consistent with State Law. The Community Development Department with the assistance of the City Attorney began the comprehensive update to the Zoning Ordinance. This over due effort was completed by the fourth quarter of 2003. Changes made and incorporated into the City Code include updated to the definitions, language and format in the residential, business, shopping center, and industrial zoning districts. In addition, new language clarified non-conforming uses as opposed to non-conforming buildings, and streamlined the variance and platting process. The DRC continues to discuss the guidelines most appropriate for setback permits. 4. Park Improvement Program Each year, the City of Roseville Park and Recreation Commission reviews the Park Improvement Program. The park improvement plan lists improvements to individual parks as well as overall park policies necessary to upgrade the service levels of the various parks. During 2000 - 2001, the Roseville Park and Recreation Department received National Gold Medal Award and Accreditation for submission of its park planning documents and recreation programs to the National Park and Recreation Association.
