Zoning Code Update GO Review, audit and update the current zoning code Norffi o 2015 MASTER VLAN Project Nears Completion The "Blueprinf' presented to the City in November 2015 contained an ana(ysis of the current zoning code and recommendations for improvements. With Council's support for these changes, a steering committee comprised of city officials, commission members and business representatives undertook a code overhaul involving a rewrite of the Business Districts chapter and rezoning of every commercial property in North Olmsted. Other interrelated chapters were also amended, including conditional use requirements, development plan approval, zoning administration and enforcement, definitions, parking, lighting and more. A draft code and map were presented at an open house in September 2016. With public input incorporated, the resulting documents were presented to the Planning and Design Commission. The Commission took a deep dive into the code language over the course of several meetings. A public hearing date was set and notices were mailed to all affected property owners and those within 1,000 feet of areas to be rezoned, more than 9,000 total notices. Dozens of North Olmsted residents, business owners and property owners attended the meeting on February 22, 2017 and many more contacted the Planning and Development Department and their e(ected officials with comments and questions. Overall, the response to the project has been supportive from residents and business owners alike. With a positive recommendation by the Planning and Design Commission, the Zoning Code update will proceed through its legislative path with City Council, which will commence in late March 2017. Code updates may take effect as soon as June 2017. ? ? ?.?-----o NU« ? ,.b,,.? 3 Zoning update recommended to North Olmsted City Council BY JEfF GAL1AT111 - .evtiw rtad? ?o-. m?etivs bmi.a ?nd mv-6w u paaibM: Lolitiu be addeJ u??asdltiuml v1s eM Wd'1 bop bhoduabo o!
