U -V for the purpose of adding definitions for uses associated with retail sales by vape shops; <br />seconded by Mr. Peeples. <br />Motion Passed: 6-0 <br />Mr. David asked that city council look at that percentage not putting it as a condition but ask <br />for a proper review. <br />ORD. 2024-62 <br />An Ordinance creating and adopting new Chapter 1157 of the North Olmsted Zoning Code <br />entitled "Planned Development" to establish a new zoning district and to regulate <br />development plans for the construction of new residential housing. <br />The discussion covered the concept of Euclidean zoning, which traditionally uses two <br />models: hierarchical (stacking permissible uses from most restrictive to least restrictive) and <br />flat (allowing specific uses in separate zones). The speaker highlighted issues with Euclidean <br />zoning, such as contributing to urban sprawl, increased car dependency, and environmental <br />impacts. <br />They proposed adopting form -based codes, which prioritize the relationship between <br />buildings and their surroundings over strict zoning regulations. This approach supports more <br />integrated, pedestrian -friendly, and sustainable development. <br />The discussion then shifted to a proposed legislation aimed at encouraging innovative <br />residential development. The legislation was intended to offer flexibility in land use while <br />maintaining control over planning and design, addressing concerns about sprawl and the <br />need for creative solutions in a city that is largely built out. The legislation was based on <br />models from other cities but tailored to the local context. <br />The speaker addressed concerns about the potential for abuse of this flexibility, <br />emphasizing the multiple approval stages involved in the process and the importance of <br />maintaining rigorous standards. The conversation also covered the need for a balanced <br />approach that encourages development while protecting existing community character. <br />Mr. David motioned to recommend approval to City Council of Ordinance 2024-62 and <br />Ordinance Creating and Adopting New Chapter 1157 of the North Olmstead Zoning Code <br />entitled Plan Development to Establish a New Zoning District and to Regulate Development <br />Plans for the Construction of New Residential Housing; with the condition the 30 days to <br />begin on the date that it first hits the agenda; seconded by Mr. Olivos <br />Motion Passed: 6-0 <br />COMMUNICATIONS <br />The approved Plan Amendment for Halleen Kia will be a part of correspondence prior to the <br />next scheduled meeting. <br />ADJOURNMENT <br />
