MEMORANDUM
To: Michael D. Beedie, City Manager
From: Michael Beedie, Engineering & Utility Services Director
Date: September 11, 2012
Subject: 1867 Amends Code of Ordinances for Consistency with LDC
1. BACKGROUND:
1. 1. On March 27, 2012, City Council adopted Ordinance 1861, enacting a new Land
Development Code ( LDC) for the City.
1. 2. There are several overlaps in procedures and regulations between the City's Land
Development Code and Code of Ordinances. During the update of the Land
Development Code, it was determined which items belonged in the LDC and which
items belonged in the City's Code of Ordinances. An amendment to the Code of
Ordinances is now needed to provide consistency with the LDC adopted in March 2012
and effective in May 2012.
2. DISCUSSION:
2. 1. Chapter 2 and Chapter 5 of the City's Code of Ordinances both contain language that
either conflicts with or overlaps with the newly adopted LDC. The following revisions
have been made to Chapter 2 in order to provide for consistency with the LDC:
2. 1. 1. Section 2. 01. 024 has been deleted. It conflicts with Section 9. 06. 01 of the LDC.
2. 1. 2. Section 2. 02, Boards and Committees, General, was modified to clarify that the
terms of Board members and vacancy rules outlined in this section only apply to
boards and committees specifically outlined in the Code of Ordinances, and do
not apply to the Local Planning Agency ( formerly the Municipal Planning
Board), Board of Adjustment, and Code Enforcement Board. These boards'
rules and procedures are outlined in Chapter 1 of the Land Development Code.
Sections 2. 02. 02, 2. 02. 03, and 2. 02. 05 have been revised to reflect this change.
2. 1. 3. Sections 2. 04, 2. 05, and 2. 11 have been deleted. The rules and procedures for
the Board of Adjustment, Code Enforcement Board, and Municipal Planning
Board ( now Local Planning Agency) are located in Chapter 1 of the Land
Development Code.
2. 2. The following revisions have been made to Chapter 5 in order to provide consistency
with the LDC:
2. 2. 1. Added Sections 5. 06, 5. 07, and 5. 08 that were deleted from the Land
Development Code. These sections deal with property maintenance and
nuisances rather than land development issues, and therefore were relocated to

ORDINANCE ( ID # 1890)
the Health and Sanitation Chapter of the Code of Ordinances.
2. 2. 2. Section 5. 04.02 was modified to clarify what constitutes a nuisance condition.
3. FINANCIAL INFORMATION:
3. 1. Ordinance 1867 has no direct financial impact to the City.
4. RECOMMENDATION:
4. 1. Staff respectfully recommends City Council approval of Ordinance 1867, amending
Chapters 2 and 5 of the Code of Ordinances to provide consistency with the City's Land
Development Code.
