Memorandum
To: Planning Commission
From: Tina Goodroad, Community Development Director
Date: January 2, 2025
Subject: Packet Material for the January 9, 2025 Planning Commission Meeting
Agenda Item: Zoning Text Amendment
BACKGROUND
During the summer Planning Commission reviewed and recommended approval of several
annual zoning ordinance text amendments and held additional discussions on parking,
specifically calculation of required spaces. Staff has prepared an amendment for additional
zoning text amendments, including parking requirements for the January 9th public hearing.
SUMMARY OF AMENDMENTS
Section 11-2-3 Definitions: We are adding a definition for Commercial Recreation Facilities as
one does not exist. This is a use that is distinct from an athletic facility or club.
Section 11-19-13 Parking: This amendment is specifically related to required number of spaces.
The amendment includes a table of uses and existing and proposed changes to the code which
was reviewed by the Planning Commission in August. Changes reflect what we are seeing for
demand for certain uses. The full list of proposed parking changes is included in the attached
ordinance.
Section 11-23-19 Signage: The amendment allows additional freestanding and wall signs in our
Community Parks and Special Use Area facilities. The changes are necessary to allow for
additional free-standing signage with sponsorship in Grand Prairie Park and additional wall
signage in this park and on the permenant Pavilion at the Hasse arena. Grand Prairie is seeking a
2
second monument sign. One sign will be located along Cedar Avenue while the second sign will
be positioned on Hamburg Avenue which does not meet the current requirements as a major
collector or arterial street. The amendment would give an exception as it’s a community park.
The size of community park facilities warrants additional monument signs.
Wall signs are proposed on the grandstand at Grand Prairie Park (south side entrance) and on
two sides of the new pavilion rink at Hasse Area.
Section 11-66-7 M-2 Mixed Use Cedar Corridor District: Multiple Family residential is a
conditional use in this district. One of the stipulations in the ordinance is the area requirement
for each unit. The current ordinance requires 1,675 sq ft per unit which does not align with the
2040 Comprehensive Plan which states the Cedar Corridor Mixed Use land use density allowed
is between 26-40 units per acre and up to 45 units per acre for senior housing. By requiring 1,675
sq ft per unit, we are only following the low end of the density range when in fact we need to
allow for the top end of the density range of 40 units/acre or 1,100 sq ft per unit. The ordinance
correctly addresses the density for senior housing at 1,000 sq ft per unit.
Section 11-86-7: I-1 Light Industrial Conditional Uses: The I-1 zoning district allows major auto
repair as a conditional use provided storage of all vehicles is indoors. We have received inquiries
to allow limited outdoor storage and as a response have prepared an amendment that allows an
enclosed and screened storage area (not in view of a principle arterial roadway) for vehicles with
several conditions including limiting the area to not more than 20% of the lot area or 10,000 sq.
sq. feet.
Section 11-87-7 I-2 Conditional Uses: Staff has received several requests for Commercial
Recreation Facilities in the I-2, General Industrial District. After consideration we are supporting
the change to also allow in I-2 with the same standards used in the I-1 district. This may allow
some vacant or underutilized buildings in the I-2 district to have the same use flexibility as in I-1.
Section 11-88-11 I-3 Administrative Uses: The MAC has submitted building permit plans for a
remodel at the maintenance building at the Airlake airfield. The remodel will provide for
sleeping quarters for airport maintenance personal. This amendment adds incidental sleeping
quarters for airport maintenance personal as a use allowed by administrative permit.
Action
City staff recommends approval of the proposed amendments as presented.

parking in accordance with this chapter.
e. The applicant and city enter into a performance agreement, to be recorded
against the subject property, which includes a clause requiring the owner
to install the additional parking spaces, upon a finding of the Zoning
Administrator that such additional parking spaces are necessary to
accommodate the use, which may include a requirement for a construction
security if determined necessary by the city.
f. A change of use will necessitate compliance with the applicable zoning
ordinance standard for parking.
J. Maximum Number of Spaces. Construction of more than one hundred twenty-five percent
(125%) of the number of spaces required by section 11-19-13.A of this section for a
specific use shall require approval of a conditional use permit based on a parking demand
