This resolution was held in committee by the Finance and Streets & Drainage Committees. On September 11 they recommended approval and the BZD Committee concurred with that and recommended approval. This will be passed under suspension of the rules. • Ordinance 2000-118, which was introduced by Councilpersons Gareau, Kasler and Miller. An ordinance creating a new Section 1139.12 of Chapter 1139 of the Zoning Code entitled "Irrigation of Landscaped Areas," so as to require that all landscaped areas located on parcels of land within the General Retail Business District be serviced by underground irrigation systems." This ordinance was recommended by the BZD Committee and will be passed on to the Planning Commission for review. Also, a public hearing will be held. This legislation pertains to all new construction within the business district. There have been problems in the past when developers have failed to maintain landscaping once the project is completed. The committee felt that underground retention would help to encourage maintenance of landscaping. The BZD committee recommended approval.
