Regular City Council Meeting Monday, December 06, 2010 Page 27 Use (CMU) chapter of the proposed zoning code, still requiring that they adhere to those requirements for everything other than having the 40' rather than 20' buf- fer. Councilmember Roe questioned, in general, what impact the proposed code would have on existing PUD agreements. Mr. Trudgeon responded that PUD agreements would remain in place and enfor- ceable; with any changes to those developments requiring amendment to the PUD. However, Mr. Trudgeon noted that the Zoning Map would not designate PUD's; and that staff would not be supporting future PUD's. Employment Districts Chapter 1006 Staff noted that this District combined three (3) existing industrial districts into a single district; with high -tech industrial uses formally in I -1 or I -2 now in Of- fice /Business Park Districts; and all remaining parcels that were predominantly zoned 1 -2 now in a single Industrial District. Staff reviewed the design standards for minimizing impacts; simplification of the Use Table; clarification and update of dimensional standards regarding height and building coverage versus imper- vious coverage; performance standards currently found in general requirements of industrial districts relocated to Property Performance Standards Councilmember Roe addressed Dimensional Standards (page 5) suggested further staff review of the HDR -2 and its more urban standards to accommodate future applications; for review under the Office Business Park District as well, as a fu- ture exercise by the department and potential recommendation as a Text Amend- ment, but not for immediate consideration in this draft. Staff noted that they would take that under advisement, for the potential of creat- ing another district; noting that in the Use Table, there was a particular condition- al use addressing additional office building height, and it could be considered there in any of those office park properties. Councilmember Ihlan questioned the current B -6 zoning district for the Twin Lakes Redevelopment Area, and whether that was incorporated into the new code. Staff advised that the green or open space requirement was not proposed as part of this code. Mr. Trudgeon advised that the Twin Lakes Redevelopment Area was zoned Mixed Use with no minimum green space requirement. Councilmember Ihlan opined that that was a fairly significant change for the busi- ness park and a property could end up with 85% impervious coverage; and may require additional discussion.
