Are we starting with training? | 00:00:01 | |
Oh, OK, I thought we put it after, but. | 00:00:04 | |
That. | 00:00:07 | |
Yeah. | 00:00:09 | |
Well, you're already up. Unless anyone's opposed, I'm fine with getting the training out of the way first, unless anybody. | 00:00:16 | |
Got concerns with that. Do we need to call the order meeting to order? Can we just jump right into training first? | 00:00:23 | |
Right. OK. Well, then it is 6:01 PM. | 00:00:30 | |
On January. | 00:00:36 | |
9th Does that sound right? | 00:00:38 | |
I only looked at the date 12 times today. Yeah, January 9th, 2024 on this holiday. City Planning Commission. We have all members | 00:00:41 | |
in attendance. | 00:00:45 | |
Along with City staff Kerry Mash and Brad Christopher, some legal counsel who is going to start us off today with training. | 00:00:50 | |
Gary, let's jump to. | 00:00:59 | |
So we're going to go over general powers and duties. I have at least one hour of that every year. If we can jump in, it doesn't | 00:01:10 | |
have to limit to that, but we're going to call this our one hour of general powers to. | 00:01:15 | |
Administrative legisl. | 00:01:23 | |
So. | 00:01:27 | |
I think it's advancing, but the numbers. | 00:01:31 | |
So the next one. | 00:01:35 | |
Oh, I see. | 00:01:40 | |
All the bullets, there we go. | 00:01:42 | |
So Atlanta's decision you want to make? | 00:01:44 | |
You said the 2nd. | 00:01:51 | |
You just put the cursor in the middle of those two screens and slide that bar over to the right. So. | 00:02:01 | |
Your next slide is a much smaller preview. | 00:02:09 | |
It was there in the. | 00:02:13 | |
So a land use decision is means legislative decision enacted by ordinance. | 00:02:19 | |
Resolution, specification, fee or rule that governs the use for development. The plan. | 00:02:25 | |
Includes the adoption of the minimum zoning. | 00:02:30 | |
Code does not include. | 00:02:34 | |
Decision Legislative body acting as the land use authority. | 00:02:36 | |
Decisions expressing resolution. | 00:02:40 | |
Or a temporary revision. | 00:02:43 | |
This is usually City Council does land use decisions. | 00:02:46 | |
Thank you. | 00:02:54 | |
Decision is what you guys usually do. | 00:03:00 | |
Right. | 00:03:03 | |
There you go. An administrative decision is typically what you guys handle based. Don't be legislated because you're not. | 00:03:07 | |
Lawmaking body for a decision making. | 00:03:14 | |
And. | 00:03:17 | |
Basically an authority that Utah allows for city council's to grant. | 00:03:17 | |
Do the duties that they. | 00:03:23 | |
So typically, language decision is a decision on a land use permit. | 00:03:26 | |
Use application or potentially. | 00:03:30 | |
The other type of land use, so there's three different. | 00:03:44 | |
So there's land use regulations, there's land use decisions, and then there's land use appeals. | 00:03:48 | |
Bills can go before hearing officer. | 00:03:52 | |
They can go before. | 00:03:57 | |
Adjustment. | 00:04:01 | |
Volunteers. | 00:04:05 | |
Much as yourselves. | 00:04:06 | |
To hear appeals of language decisions. | 00:04:08 | |
One of the reasons that a lot of cities that move away from. | 00:04:14 | |
Is they are typically very. | 00:04:18 | |
Not very objective. They make decisions based on. | 00:04:23 | |
How they feel and if they know the person. | 00:04:27 | |
So they've got to have a little more structure. | 00:04:33 | |
Most cities, especially larger cities, they're going to have a little more structure and have a hearing officer. | 00:04:37 | |
Usually. | 00:04:41 | |
One side note on that. | 00:04:51 | |
Those are a lot less likely to be. | 00:04:54 | |
And although the expense of preparing for them is higher. | 00:04:58 | |
The cost overall is lower. | 00:05:02 | |
Oftentimes when you get a subjective decision from a board. | 00:05:05 | |
So, OK, we're not going to get into all the appeal standards. | 00:05:21 | |
Land Use and Development Management Act. That's. I don't know if it's Title 10, Chapter 9. | 00:05:31 | |
Regularly. | 00:05:48 | |
A lot of those, especially in the. | 00:05:50 | |
Decade. There's been a lot. | 00:05:54 | |
That's been a lot. | 00:06:02 | |
Special interests that are heavily involved in. | 00:06:03 | |
And they've been successful. | 00:06:10 | |
So lagma is. | 00:06:16 | |
It grants authority to say May about its own land use standards, so long as they're consistent with federal and state law. | 00:06:18 | |
Mandates the creation of Planning Commission. | 00:06:24 | |
And the establishment of land use and. | 00:06:28 | |
Also requires and it depends on the population, but there. | 00:06:32 | |
As the city grows in population. | 00:06:40 | |
The more. | 00:06:43 | |
Animal deployments in general. | 00:06:46 | |
Adoption, general planning process, considering decision applications has to be laid out so the cities can follow. | 00:06:54 | |
Property owners. | 00:07:01 | |
OK. Next slide on general themes, so Blood money in general. | 00:07:04 | |
Require cities to respect private property rights. Cities are allowed to regulate private property. | 00:07:09 | |
Once written and established. | 00:07:16 | |
Courts. | 00:07:23 | |
Heavy-handed when it comes to cities and following. | 00:07:25 | |
I'd like to just ask real quick how. | 00:07:32 | |
Oversight is there from city versus state when it comes to property, right? Is it about? | 00:07:35 | |
5050 or new cities have way more. | 00:07:40 | |
Things they tack on to private property rights that the state does. | 00:07:43 | |
Well, so the. | 00:07:47 | |
The state is the sovereign and then. | 00:07:50 | |
Allow counties to do some of that so the state doesn't get into land use decisions. | 00:07:53 | |
Very often except. | 00:07:58 | |
Well, they give a little bit of land use authority to school districts. | 00:08:01 | |
Basically, you can come in in the school district. | 00:08:05 | |
School district wants to buy property and put up a. | 00:08:07 | |
So because they're also a political subdivision, a special subdivision. | 00:08:16 | |
Of the state separate, they're not governed by. | 00:08:20 | |
It can be like Murray, for example. They used to be close, more closely related. | 00:08:24 | |
They are. | 00:08:30 | |
But then the count is unincorporated. Property counting would be the land use authority there, but cities are the land use | 00:08:35 | |
authority. | 00:08:38 | |
So what I think maybe your question is. | 00:08:45 | |
Is the state historically cities have had. | 00:08:50 | |
Basically complete authority over anything within their borders. | 00:08:54 | |
You know, subject to. | 00:08:57 | |
Federal law can't. | 00:08:59 | |
And, you know, treat people differently. | 00:09:00 | |
But. | 00:09:08 | |
We're all getting the whatever work. | 00:09:12 | |
It's going to snow, OK? | 00:09:19 | |
State grants counties and cities the authority to do. | 00:09:25 | |
To regulate and. | 00:09:29 | |
In the last four or five years, maybe. | 00:09:31 | |
A lot of lobbying efforts have gone into. | 00:09:37 | |
Those rabbits. | 00:09:44 | |
Housing product. | 00:09:47 | |
Younger, growing. | 00:09:51 | |
Less money. | 00:09:56 | |
You know, a generation that can afford, you know? | 00:10:01 | |
Half $1,000,000 house. | 00:10:04 | |
Ten years ago, Half million dollars. | 00:10:07 | |
Would buy you a nice place and. | 00:10:10 | |
Do they have a? | 00:10:14 | |
So traditionally, cities are like 9095% deciding what's going on. Just stay oversight and county oversight. | 00:10:20 | |
You're the land authority. You guys can regulate how you want, and your council and your elected officials can decide that and set | 00:10:29 | |
policy limits. And here's what you do. That's your job. We're not giving policy. | 00:10:33 | |
There's a lot more push. | 00:10:38 | |
Special interests and builders, Developers that want. | 00:10:43 | |
Limit and make it make it more uniform across cities. | 00:10:46 | |
They want to have the process and holiday be the same as in Magna would be the same as in. | 00:10:50 | |
Errors Ability to St. Syracuse IN Farmington so that they don't have to. | 00:10:55 | |
You know, pay somebody. | 00:11:00 | |
Understand what the compatible process is. | 00:11:03 | |
They're not that different. There's slight nuances, but there's not. | 00:11:06 | |
They're not TER. | 00:11:10 | |
Some some have preliminary concept preliminary. | 00:11:12 | |
Final flight approval somehow just. | 00:11:16 | |
Concept and. | 00:11:19 | |
But it's not. They're not that different. There's some minor differences. | 00:11:23 | |
If there's a land use ordinance, that's written poorly or written in a way that leaves open multiple interpretations. | 00:11:34 | |
The applicant gets their interpretation. | 00:11:44 | |
So if there's more than one way to interpret it. | 00:11:48 | |
The tie will go to the applicant. | 00:11:52 | |
One of the other things that. | 00:11:55 | |
That we've seen is. | 00:11:58 | |
You know, oftentimes application and this is with any. | 00:12:02 | |
And it will. | 00:12:06 | |
Relatively newer than the code. | 00:12:07 | |
Prohibited specifically. | 00:12:09 | |
Therefore it's per. | 00:12:11 | |
So. | 00:12:14 | |
Wait a minute. You could do this. This is ridiculous. Well, it's not. You didn't regulate. | 00:12:18 | |
They can do it. | 00:12:27 | |
So that does create some problems, yeah. Can I ask a question about that? Because it feels like a lot of times the. | 00:12:30 | |
The thing in contention. | 00:12:38 | |
Like the? | 00:12:41 | |
We're often dealing with is what it means to have like an impact, like the home based business stuff. | 00:12:43 | |
To have an impact above normal residential. | 00:12:49 | |
And it feels like right. And so is that, I mean is that this thing where if somebody says. | 00:12:53 | |
I invite 20 people to my house on a weekend party. | 00:12:59 | |
That's my residential use. | 00:13:02 | |
My business use is much less. I mean, at what point are they saying this is how I'm interpreting it? And we say, oh, OK, it's your | 00:13:04 | |
interpretation because that's great. That one's a little more nuanced because. | 00:13:10 | |
You can have. I mean, there's kind of a community standard, right? | 00:13:17 | |
Engineer, City Engineer. Standpoint. | 00:13:24 | |
A typical residential home single family will generate about 6:00. | 00:13:26 | |
Vehicle trips in and out. | 00:13:31 | |
That's A and it would be the average. | 00:13:34 | |
Parents and future was the average family 3.4 people or something like that. | 00:13:39 | |
More than the 2.1 national. | 00:13:47 | |
And it's going down. | 00:13:50 | |
3.4 if I remember it, but that might be three or four years old, but my reflection is about 3.4 and so that house will generate. | 00:13:53 | |
About 6 strips per day if. | 00:14:01 | |
For those, you know, two of them were teenagers or close to adults, are driving 4 drivers, you're going to have more than six | 00:14:04 | |
trips a day. | 00:14:07 | |
But again, that's for a short period of time. | 00:14:11 | |
Lifespan for. | 00:14:14 | |
Relatively speaking and. | 00:14:16 | |
Those teenagers become adult. | 00:14:20 | |
Two person household for a time. | 00:14:27 | |
So when you get into questions of what kind of impact is this particular issue have or this particular application have? | 00:14:30 | |
Or on a neighborhood. | 00:14:38 | |
We go into that analysis when we have a conditional use, right? So if it's a permitted use. | 00:14:41 | |
The City Council's already decided that that's fine. Go ahead and have that. | 00:14:46 | |
Used in that. | 00:14:50 | |
But when it's a conditional use permit, we're allowed. | 00:14:53 | |
Conditional uses the reasonable conditions. | 00:15:06 | |
Have to be related to the impact it's having on the neighborhood. | 00:15:10 | |
Right. | 00:15:15 | |
The for example the. | 00:15:16 | |
Yes, that's having an impact on. | 00:15:24 | |
What is it typically, the impact? Well, it's people. | 00:15:27 | |
Potentially in front of somebody else's house. | 00:15:30 | |
It's on public. | 00:15:33 | |
That is really. | 00:15:35 | |
If they're parking at the edge of that corner. | 00:15:38 | |
We talked about this. | 00:15:41 | |
But if they're parked at the corner, that's a safety issue, right? | 00:15:43 | |
So we need to make sure. | 00:15:47 | |
Is in clearview is when you approach an intersection you have to be able to see there's sight lines. | 00:15:49 | |
Allow you to be able to safely get into that intersection, see if cars are coming and not having that, that's what. | 00:15:55 | |
Where we have those. | 00:16:02 | |
The requirement can't put a fence. | 00:16:04 | |
It's. | 00:16:07 | |
So that's one of the issues that we have to make sure that we're not creating a condition that creates a safety issue and so we | 00:16:14 | |
need to mitigate it mostly to mitigate it. | 00:16:18 | |
Is that was required on the street or sorry off street parking? | 00:16:22 | |
So are we basically saying the policy concern is, are we saying, well, some homes are allowed to have? | 00:16:31 | |
Businesses, but not that. | 00:16:37 | |
Because of. | 00:16:39 | |
Right, right. | 00:16:42 | |
So that's basic. So are we getting into that level of detail? We typically don't. | 00:16:44 | |
And we you saw last week, we saw the. | 00:16:50 | |
This week, that's what we're doing today, is the parking regulations. | 00:16:54 | |
How? | 00:16:58 | |
One of the things is this is a public St. | 00:17:00 | |
So, contrary to most people's beliefs in public, St. in front of their house does not belong to them. | 00:17:04 | |
It just doesn't. It is a public right of way, and the public has a right to use it. | 00:17:11 | |
And. | 00:17:18 | |
In most jurisdictions, that includes parking on the street. | 00:17:20 | |
A lot of. | 00:17:25 | |
Kind of aesthetic concerns. | 00:17:27 | |
With parking in front of my house, we also know that that creates. | 00:17:30 | |
Neighborhood disputes when you're parking so many parks in front of. | 00:17:35 | |
Your house all the time. | 00:17:39 | |
So that's something to take into account, but. | 00:17:42 | |
The conditions that you're putting on need to be reasonable in a conditional use permit. | 00:17:46 | |
It's better to say permitted with conditions than it is to say conditional. | 00:17:52 | |
Because if the council has listed a table of uses that are conditional use. | 00:17:57 | |
That means they're. | 00:18:03 | |
So long as the impact that they. | 00:18:05 | |
Can be. | 00:18:08 | |
With conditions. | 00:18:10 | |
And so the tools that you have at your disposal of disposal. | 00:18:11 | |
And we have Austria arguments. | 00:18:15 | |
That's one of the other ones is hours of operation. It mitigates. | 00:18:19 | |
The number of people that are. | 00:18:23 | |
One of the things that we've seen is a huge increase since COVID and people looking for home a lot more. | 00:18:25 | |
Code enforcement complaints have gone up. | 00:18:33 | |
Across the board, almost every. | 00:18:36 | |
Because people are home and they see what's happening. | 00:18:38 | |
And they didn't use. It bothers them now. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get into the specifics, but OK, So what you're saying here | 00:18:41 | |
is. | 00:18:45 | |
There's a community standard and so if applicants interpretation is way left, you know sort of left field of the community | 00:18:51 | |
standard that. | 00:18:55 | |
The lid. | 00:19:00 | |
OK. | 00:19:04 | |
Amended all the time, both in the state and. | 00:19:07 | |
And then they said. | 00:19:20 | |
Cascade. | 00:19:23 | |
Well then, councils can amend a lot at any point if it's a land use regulation. | 00:19:27 | |
That has to be reviewed by. | 00:19:32 | |
Before the Council. | 00:19:36 | |
Doesn't the city also have to provide means by which they can mitigate mean? | 00:19:39 | |
If off street parking or however the parking is going to be interpreted these days, the city has to provide a way for the | 00:19:45 | |
applicant. | 00:19:49 | |
To be able to mitigate. | 00:19:53 | |
So, well, so that one, right? | 00:19:56 | |
The one that we've been working with is really hard with the way it's currently written. | 00:20:01 | |
Which is one of the reasons. So do we have to provide a way to mitigate GET? The Council has set policy forces if these uses are | 00:20:05 | |
permitted with conditions. | 00:20:09 | |
They require relation of these permits. That's a. | 00:20:13 | |
Then I'm trying to think of. | 00:20:16 | |
Of a situation where the answer is. | 00:20:21 | |
I can't think of 1. | 00:20:24 | |
Let's say restaurant outside. You know they're going to do dining on the sidewalk or something. | 00:20:25 | |
And there's additional parking required because. | 00:20:31 | |
The parking requirement typically is based on the interior space. So now you've increased the size of your business and that | 00:20:35 | |
requires your conditional use permit if you're going to do that. | 00:20:41 | |
And I don't know why I was getting these conversation and forget what I was thinking, but there has to be some way to mitigate. | 00:20:47 | |
The city. So if the city wants additional any requirement additional the city has to also provide a way by which. | 00:20:57 | |
The applicant can mitigate, it's not just an arbitrary. | 00:21:04 | |
It should not be standard, correct? Yeah, it should be, but it has to be also reasonably related to the condition. | 00:21:08 | |
And the impact that you're? | 00:21:14 | |
Right, so. | 00:21:18 | |
We don't want people coming all hours a night. | 00:21:19 | |
Yeah, additional parking is a good example of if you're going to have. | 00:21:24 | |
And maybe it's additional parking for seasonal because at this time of the year, OK. | 00:21:28 | |
OK. | 00:21:35 | |
And then you also one of the other things you have to have a wider side. | 00:21:37 | |
To safely allow the public to walk by. | 00:21:41 | |
I know there was. I don't remember there was. | 00:21:46 | |
It was. The copper kettle was. | 00:21:50 | |
And copper onion. Yeah, copper onion, copper kettle. | 00:21:55 | |
Owned by the same company, but like the copper kettle and the copper kitchen, we can't afford to go to those places. | 00:22:01 | |
I remember going through, I remember having to deal with that, their request to have. | 00:22:07 | |
A patio area in front so that. | 00:22:13 | |
Process. | 00:22:17 | |
So the Commission is fairly limited on use permits, conditional use permits. | 00:22:20 | |
The limitations are it's permitted with reasonable conditions to eliminate the impact. | 00:22:26 | |
That's gone through, that's gone through the court system. | 00:22:32 | |
In fact, it went through the court system and it used to be. | 00:22:36 | |
It used to be conditional use. | 00:22:40 | |
If we allow it, you can't just use it. It's not permitted. If we decide we want to have that, then we can conditionally. | 00:22:43 | |
Now it's that's gone through the court system. There's no subjectivity whatsoever conditional use. | 00:22:52 | |
Well, the only subjectivity. | 00:22:58 | |
You have to tie your. | 00:23:01 | |
To what it is you're trying to do. | 00:23:03 | |
I see. So if it's traffic, you're trying to mitigate it, we want to make sure there's no Clearview violation on the street so | 00:23:05 | |
people can get through. | 00:23:08 | |
Then the condition has to be OK You can't park in front of your street in front of your house because it violates the clearly | 00:23:13 | |
provisions or traffic ordinances so you can park. | 00:23:18 | |
The Neighbors house. So I'm sorry to keep this conversation. | 00:23:24 | |
What are we basing the standards for home businesses, The traffic generation, to the home business? | 00:23:28 | |
In addition to the typical traffic generation within the house. | 00:23:34 | |
So are we saying any twice as much or city staff, I think it regulates that. I don't think we regulate it that way well. I'm | 00:23:41 | |
curious just to know how you've determined how much additional parking is we're going to be required? | 00:23:48 | |
For a home business. | 00:23:55 | |
So I know most of the home businesses we limited to one employee at most. | 00:23:57 | |
Well, that's if you have an employee coming. But let's say you have 50 people coming every day to your house. That's a significant | 00:24:03 | |
change in the residential character. | 00:24:08 | |
But but that's an exaggeration. But I'm looking at how much. | 00:24:17 | |
Is the break point by. | 00:24:22 | |
We say that's too much traffic. | 00:24:25 | |
Does this make sense? And I know, I know you can't say how much. | 00:24:27 | |
I don't know the city that regulates it in a way that says OK, here's and maybe that's something that. | 00:24:33 | |
To be considered, but a typical residential loan generates. | 00:24:38 | |
Residential trips per day. Six vehicle trips per day. | 00:24:43 | |
Right, so. | 00:24:47 | |
That's 12 cars. | 00:24:49 | |
Right, one in. | 00:24:51 | |
2. | 00:24:53 | |
But if you look at daycares, daycares are allowed statewide. | 00:24:56 | |
And they're regulated by the state. You can have up to 8. | 00:25:01 | |
Kids without and if you go to 12, then there's some additional restrictions and additional. | 00:25:05 | |
Items you have to meet but. | 00:25:12 | |
A minimum of 24 trips. So we don't have a standard by saying you have to be within this margin. | 00:25:15 | |
OK, so there will be a lot of subjectivity as far as how much parking we ask for. | 00:25:23 | |
Yes or not. Ask for yes. | 00:25:28 | |
We talked about this at times. My kids go to. | 00:25:33 | |
So you're part of the trouble. | 00:25:39 | |
Make sure you're taking them back. | 00:25:42 | |
I'll tell you. | 00:25:53 | |
At this their teacher this at the end of the cul-de-sac. | 00:25:55 | |
And they have, I mean, they have a large yard, but there's multiple homes on that cul-de-sac and so they have. | 00:25:58 | |
You know, a tiny wedge of frontage and then it goes way out like that. | 00:26:04 | |
So there's like 5 homes in this circle. | 00:26:09 | |
But they all have 30 feet of frontage at most, and with it, that includes their driver. | 00:26:12 | |
You know their approach and. | 00:26:17 | |
Oftentimes there are people waiting when they back in because that's the only way they could be in front of the house and not | 00:26:20 | |
block driveways. | 00:26:23 | |
So, you know, back into the curve right there. | 00:26:27 | |
I mean, the city doesn't want to get into a safety issue either, dropping kids off. | 00:26:31 | |
So I'm just kind of trying to go through the process of how staff kind of comes to the conclusion of what we would typically need | 00:26:36 | |
to ask for. | 00:26:40 | |
Obviously it will be based on the business, right, based on the type, whether it's permitted or not. | 00:26:45 | |
And so some cities will even put kind of a savings clause. If your business does not appear in this list, then it is prohibited. | 00:26:52 | |
So we don't get into that. | 00:26:56 | |
You know, if we don't regulate it. | 00:27:01 | |
Then the applicant can do it. OK, it's kind of a catch all provision the savings clause, right? | 00:27:03 | |
Come on. Oh well, you fall into this category. Let's just so you don't forget. | 00:27:10 | |
Almost seems like it's a case by case basis. | 00:27:15 | |
You know it's where is. | 00:27:18 | |
Home You know what? What are the? | 00:27:21 | |
Lines. | 00:27:24 | |
Yeah, I mean, not everybody's on a corner, right? The majority of homes are not on corners. So those. | 00:27:26 | |
Fewer import, but if we had a business in a home based business and holiday that was on a cul-de-sac. | 00:27:32 | |
With 30 feet of frontage. | 00:27:38 | |
Including the. | 00:27:41 | |
And it was a. | 00:27:43 | |
You know. | 00:27:46 | |
That's a big impact, but part of the way that. | 00:27:48 | |
I think the legislature also. | 00:27:54 | |
You know you can't say no to their character. | 00:27:57 | |
Right. You can reasonably regulate them, but you can't say we're not going to help. | 00:28:01 | |
No, but don't we have to consider neighbors? Don't we have to consider the impact of parking and traffic and so forth? | 00:28:05 | |
You could consider it, but that doesn't mean you can say no. | 00:28:16 | |
That's that's the hard part with conditional use. How do we permit what conditions? But what conditions do we? | 00:28:20 | |
So in that particular situation, you would have to have kind of like a. | 00:28:29 | |
Kind of a graduated or. | 00:28:34 | |
You know 15. | 00:28:36 | |
Yeah, traffic though. Drop your kid off at this window and so you show up and you're only so you can't have 30 cars show at once. | 00:28:38 | |
You got to have a drop off stagger, drop off time. I mean, that's a condition. | 00:28:45 | |
Is reasonable. | 00:28:50 | |
Or or the situation. | 00:28:51 | |
And then we wait for neighbors to complain, and then we have a code enforcement issue. | 00:28:55 | |
And it's a safety issue. | 00:29:02 | |
And I think that's where your. | 00:29:04 | |
You have the ability in your code to make modifications. | 00:29:07 | |
Was switching your conditional uses to be business licenses. | 00:29:13 | |
Regulated through a business licensing and they expire every year. So if there are issues with it, there's an opportunity to say, | 00:29:17 | |
oh, we've been having these issues, let's modify the code to address these specific issues. | 00:29:25 | |
But they won't continue indefinitely. So then every year they're renewing their business license, they have to comply with the new | 00:29:33 | |
standards if we add more standards to that section of code. | 00:29:39 | |
And the change is recommended. To move it to a license to a person and not to the land is a great decision and that because | 00:29:44 | |
someone has something that was approved 20 years ago or 30 years ago. | 00:29:51 | |
Without any review and. | 00:30:00 | |
You know, well, they still have to be continually used that way, right? Yes, Right. Right. But if you have the continuous use, but | 00:30:02 | |
the burden would be on the city to show the use has changed and they had good luck, I remember. Yeah, you know, in South Jordan | 00:30:08 | |
was a farming community, okay. And there's lots of interesting uses that. | 00:30:15 | |
Kind of continued, but they EV. | 00:30:22 | |
Yeah, they evolved. | 00:30:24 | |
Yeah. So the switch to code is a somewhat more dynamic or more there's more opportunity to change the code and then bring those | 00:30:28 | |
conditional or the home occupations into compliance every year. | 00:30:35 | |
I mean, I like the whole concept in that and then a year from now. | 00:30:44 | |
Find out what we forgot to put on the prohibited list or whatever else in that. But that's OK, that's how the process works. And | 00:30:47 | |
that. And then next year it can be on the list. When their license expires and it doesn't run with land anymore, you can, at least | 00:30:53 | |
over time, keep up with what's happening. | 00:30:59 | |
They might, yeah. So they would have to meet the same standards. | 00:31:07 | |
Right. But if they ever discontinue? | 00:31:12 | |
Then they'd have to review or evaluate it. So you mentioned the idea of a safety clause savings clause. If it's not included, it's | 00:31:15 | |
prohibited. Yeah. | 00:31:19 | |
Going to our next item, the amendment that we're going to consider later tonight, do we have a savings clause in that one? | 00:31:25 | |
No. | 00:31:33 | |
The problem will we OK, you have to come up with an exhaustive list of what is permitted. | 00:31:36 | |
It's much easier to come up with a list of 15 or whatever we came up with so far. | 00:31:42 | |
And that and that, But to come up with all of the things that we think are out there that are OK would be a very exhaustive | 00:31:48 | |
process. | 00:31:53 | |
I don't know if it's a downside, but one of the consequences to having a savings clause in there that says if it's not listed. | 00:31:58 | |
Then anytime everybody comes. | 00:32:07 | |
That's on that list and oh, we didn't think about that. We'll have to have a legisl. | 00:32:09 | |
Change so. | 00:32:13 | |
That's not I mean. | 00:32:15 | |
You can say, you know, consider a savings clause that if it's not on this list, it's prohibited. | 00:32:20 | |
Recommendation consider that it would be appropriate. | 00:32:25 | |
So is there a revocation clause in this? | 00:32:32 | |
The neighbors continue to complain about a business just because the business isn't really very thoughtful of the neighbors. So if | 00:32:35 | |
it's if it's in violation of their conditions, yeah, you can. There's a revocation process of their license. | 00:32:42 | |
But that means you have to put in all the conditions that they. | 00:32:49 | |
Be mindful of where they parked the cars and. | 00:32:53 | |
That they're not making noise and. | 00:32:57 | |
The other things is you like to think. | 00:33:01 | |
That. | 00:33:03 | |
If you're a Coachella teacher or whatever music teacher. | 00:33:05 | |
You would want to be a good neigh. | 00:33:12 | |
Well, I think you're, oops, sorry, common sense, but I know some businesses don't use, you know. | 00:33:15 | |
They treat the their business like business and don't care about the neighbors. Yeah, I mean if I'm if I'm having that kind of | 00:33:22 | |
impact on my neighbors. | 00:33:26 | |
You know, hey, rather than wait, I know, but can you wait down the street that? | 00:33:32 | |
Fresh Market or whatever. Can you can you go away somewhere else, come back and meet your child? Just. | 00:33:38 | |
You know, it's just a currency, my neighbors. We kind of have a really small St. | 00:33:43 | |
Narrow entrance. | 00:33:48 | |
People in the park here, the harder it becomes for me. | 00:33:49 | |
I think that's our hope. | 00:33:53 | |
But if there's a bad business? | 00:33:54 | |
I don't think we can do much. | 00:33:57 | |
Right. | 00:33:59 | |
At. | 00:34:02 | |
If it comes to the Planning Commission, yeah, you. | 00:34:03 | |
You can revoke your license, right? Because they're. | 00:34:06 | |
But it once it gets into the Gray, it becomes. | 00:34:11 | |
Very good. | 00:34:16 | |
Brad, I wonder about that with respect to the hours of operation. | 00:34:18 | |
Now it's they're listed as, I think 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM. | 00:34:23 | |
And I just wonder about that. | 00:34:28 | |
There's a home based business operating until 10:00 PM. | 00:34:32 | |
And that proves to be disruptive. | 00:34:36 | |
For neighbors. | 00:34:39 | |
Small edge. | 00:34:40 | |
Small engine repair until 10:00 PM, whatever you know, and that's why it says 9:00 on my suggested change. I just wonder if we get | 00:34:43 | |
a lot of complaints. | 00:34:47 | |
Then do we? | 00:34:52 | |
Or does the city have the opportunity to revoke that license after a year? Or what? | 00:34:55 | |
Because 10:00 PM is late. I mean if neighbors have little kids or. | 00:35:01 | |
Yeah, and the 10:00 PM was drawn based off of our noise ordinance. So noise ordinance is 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM. | 00:35:06 | |
The 7:00 AM was based off of. | 00:35:14 | |
Before school as you'll sometimes have lessons or things that are occurring before school, so to include those kinds of hours. | 00:35:17 | |
It's highly unlikely that somebody would be operating a business from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM that's. | 00:35:25 | |
A long time to have a continual stream of people coming in for business services. | 00:35:30 | |
You might have some people that want to operate only in the evenings if they have clients that are coming from. | 00:35:38 | |
Five until 10:00 PM or 6 until 10. | 00:35:45 | |
Massages. The storm has arrived. | 00:35:49 | |
Storm. | 00:35:53 | |
Great. | 00:35:55 | |
The hours of operation is that that flexibility likely you're not going to have a significant amount of disruption. | 00:35:59 | |
If a business is operating in the evening hours if. | 00:36:06 | |
Code enforce. | 00:36:11 | |
Situation that's come to me. | 00:36:12 | |
From holiday. | 00:36:14 | |
Yeah, I mean most of our the majority that I that come. | 00:36:17 | |
Parking. | 00:36:24 | |
Joaquin and that's where if if there were. | 00:36:27 | |
You had a home based occupation. | 00:36:30 | |
Or home occupation that. | 00:36:33 | |
You know. | 00:36:35 | |
Clients. | 00:36:37 | |
On their streets every evening, continuously. | 00:36:39 | |
Then you might have calls from neighbors which would then be a code enforcement. | 00:36:44 | |
And we could enforce that based off of the parking standards. | 00:36:49 | |
Your business operation. All clients have to park either on site or. | 00:36:54 | |
Limited to one on street parking space. | 00:36:59 | |
So if you're continuously having that amount of parking. | 00:37:02 | |
In a neighborhood, then that's code enforcement, and they could have their license revoked because they're operating outside of | 00:37:06 | |
the standards that were already given. | 00:37:11 | |
These are, sorry, this Commissioner. I'm just going to jump in. These are some really good questions. I just want to make sure. | 00:37:16 | |
Are we jumping ahead on our agenda item? Should we table some of these until we actually get to the text amendment? I don't know | 00:37:23 | |
how much more Brad has prepared for us here to to go through with the PowerPoint, but I'm guessing it's not all. | 00:37:29 | |
Around the conditional use and street parking discussions. | 00:37:36 | |
Ones that you guys face a lot and. | 00:37:43 | |
These changes it makes the staff. | 00:37:48 | |
But yes, staff deals with code enforcement on complaints with parking all the time. | 00:37:55 | |
Objects in the street. Somebody has a tree fall down and it's in the street. It's blocking the right of way. We get calls from | 00:38:01 | |
that. Then we have to contact the property owner and have them clean up the fallen tree. That's their responsibility. So we're | 00:38:07 | |
dealing with those kinds of like impeding the public right of way, code enforcement issues all the time. | 00:38:14 | |
And with business operation impact sometimes when? | 00:38:22 | |
When you have a lot of parking or traffic being generated, we generally know when those kinds of things are happening. | 00:38:27 | |
Can I ask a kind of a dumb question? I've been debating whether or not I should ask it or not. But so we have all these zones, | 00:38:36 | |
right? | 00:38:40 | |
That and the zones are established. | 00:38:46 | |
To meet the city plans to have residential areas, business areas we have, residential professional zones we have. | 00:38:48 | |
Different zones that are arranged. | 00:38:59 | |
To provide different services. | 00:39:02 | |
So. | 00:39:07 | |
Like with home based businesses? | 00:39:10 | |
Like why are businesses? If there's like a residential zone, why are they allowed to be in a residential zone? Why shouldn't home | 00:39:13 | |
based businesses? | 00:39:18 | |
Be allowed in a residential. | 00:39:23 | |
Like professional. | 00:39:26 | |
And that still gives land. | 00:39:28 | |
Do you see what I'm saying? I guess I'm just kind of, I'm feeling like people are saying, well, we should be able to use our land | 00:39:32 | |
the way we want to use our land, which they should be able to, but. | 00:39:38 | |
Yes, and. | 00:39:45 | |
What's the purpose in the in the zones then? | 00:39:46 | |
If we don't abide by that. | 00:39:49 | |
So. | 00:39:52 | |
Do cities react to what people are doing? | 00:39:57 | |
Their laws kind of reflect what's happening. | 00:40:01 | |
I think that's the answer to your question. So people were doing home based businesses. | 00:40:04 | |
And then Sidney started regulating home based businesses. | 00:40:08 | |
So you can't do this, You can't do that. And the legislature said, and then they started saying, well, they're going to do the | 00:40:13 | |
room, make it expensive. | 00:40:16 | |
And so we're going to, we're going to charge it $350.00 a year business license fee. | 00:40:19 | |
If they want to do it, then they're going to. | 00:40:24 | |
And then somebody said this is ridiculous, why are we paying this? So legislature comes down and says you can't require city | 00:40:26 | |
business licenses. | 00:40:30 | |
At all and the cost and if. | 00:40:34 | |
It has to be regulated to the cost of administering. | 00:40:38 | |
The license and creating the license. | 00:40:41 | |
So they put a cap basically. | 00:40:43 | |
You know $20 fee business license instead, so. | 00:40:47 | |
It's an attempted cities because you have. | 00:40:51 | |
I would say there's probably. | 00:40:54 | |
Their residential zone. | 00:40:56 | |
It's a residential home. | 00:41:01 | |
I bought a residential property in a residential home I don't want to have. | 00:41:04 | |
My neighbor selling lotions and you know, massage oils out of their neighborhood, out of their house, garage. They make it home. | 00:41:08 | |
I didn't sign up for that. Right. And then you have, others would say. | 00:41:15 | |
I'm just starting a business and I'm an entrepreneur and I can't afford rent right now. | 00:41:20 | |
The only way I'm going to do that is to be able to start this in my home and eventually get out and then. | 00:41:24 | |
We all know that most home based businesses fail within a year or two. | 00:41:30 | |
So that's. | 00:41:38 | |
Cities are trying to regulate as best they can and adapt to what people are doing. | 00:41:40 | |
And sometimes it works. | 00:41:44 | |
Better than this and in the longer history of land use. | 00:41:47 | |
Home based businesses have existed. | 00:41:53 | |
Forever. | 00:41:56 | |
Tailors. | 00:41:57 | |
Operated businesses out of their homes. | 00:41:59 | |
All sorts of services that were home based, so it's just that customary use. | 00:42:03 | |
Just carries through. | 00:42:08 | |
I don't think that's ever changed where home based businesses were not ever allowed. | 00:42:10 | |
They're an accessory. | 00:42:17 | |
So there the main intent or use of the land has to be residential, but we allow accessory uses and some of them basically. | 00:42:18 | |
Like, you're right because you're home. You build your home as population grew. | 00:42:29 | |
You're shrinking, but your home, Main St. | 00:42:35 | |
I'm going to convert my house to a shop and so anyways, there's. | 00:42:37 | |
There's lots of reasons for it. | 00:42:42 | |
That that. | 00:42:43 | |
Perspective. | 00:42:46 | |
I bought a residential home. | 00:42:47 | |
Why is my neighbor selling soaps and motions? | 00:42:50 | |
That she made at all. | 00:42:54 | |
I didn't sign up for that. | 00:42:57 | |
That's potential. | 00:42:59 | |
Yeah, it is. It creates a lot of. | 00:43:00 | |
Cities. You're trying to respond to it. | 00:43:04 | |
I think the biggest according to the law, like those zones that have been set up that doesn't have any precedence, it doesn't have | 00:43:08 | |
any like if you are in a residential zone and that zone is that. | 00:43:15 | |
There's nothing within the law that says. | 00:43:22 | |
That takes precedence. It doesn't matter if you want to run a business out of your house, you're in a residential zone. | 00:43:25 | |
So cities have passed ordinances that allow for it so. | 00:43:32 | |
You can do it. | 00:43:39 | |
It's the primary use and accessories. | 00:43:42 | |
So primary use is residential. No, you can't set up a gas station and have it right, have it be a gas station. You can't. You | 00:43:44 | |
can't convert your house to be a business only. | 00:43:50 | |
So you can't change your house into a boutique and have it operate as a business only. It has to still be a residential use. So as | 00:43:58 | |
long as somebody lives there, yes, it's a fair question. | 00:44:04 | |
As long as somebody lives there, I mean going back to. | 00:44:10 | |
Mean I grew up in Park City and there were lots of shop owners that had apartments above their shops and lived there and. | 00:44:13 | |
That would be. | 00:44:20 | |
If they were. | 00:44:22 | |
Yeah, yeah. And that's so that's kind of a zoning district. | 00:44:24 | |
Commercial. | 00:44:28 | |
And the residential use would be an accessory use or an allowed use. | 00:44:30 | |
Main Street was. | 00:44:39 | |
Not. | 00:44:44 | |
Right. | 00:44:45 | |
Homes that built them as time. | 00:44:47 | |
Past uses changed. | 00:44:49 | |
Zones changed. | 00:44:51 | |
Commercial. | 00:44:55 | |
OK. | 00:44:58 | |
Do you want to go to the next slide, Brad? | 00:45:09 | |
So I didn't find anywhere in the law that 31 minutes Canada is an hour. | 00:45:13 | |
But I think the closer we get to 47 minutes. | 00:45:19 | |
I think we probably So I know they let us know because they got something to do. You tell me what you want to do. | 00:45:23 | |
Let's get an hour training done. There's a lot of snow. We don't want to go out in this stall right now. That squalls ugly play | 00:45:29 | |
out out there. | 00:45:33 | |
So, yeah, next slide. | 00:45:38 | |
So we've already talked about this a little bit, but just a little bit more here legislative body, the City Council. | 00:45:40 | |
They're the only ones that can enact land use regulations. | 00:45:47 | |
So you guys don't get to enact land use regulations you guys get. | 00:45:51 | |
Apply the language regulations with the council passed. | 00:45:55 | |
So. | 00:46:00 | |
Councils. City councils are required by state law. They have to create an amendment zoning districts and Disney general uses that | 00:46:03 | |
are allowed in each zoning that's required by. | 00:46:07 | |
They may establish. | 00:46:13 | |
Other restrictions, you can modify them and amend them. | 00:46:14 | |
Including the configuration modifications. | 00:46:18 | |
The relentless decision that applies sort of criteria or. | 00:46:21 | |
They consider each land use regulation that the Planning Commission recommends. Planning Commission has the authority on its own | 00:46:28 | |
accord to prepare or cause staff to prepare a land use. A proposed land use regulation City Council by law has to consider has to | 00:46:35 | |
be on the agenda and they can adopt it, they can reject it, they can amend it. | 00:46:41 | |
And then? | 00:46:49 | |
And then they can also establish language ordinances that allows for conditions. They don't have to, but they can. | 00:46:53 | |
Next slide. | 00:47:00 | |
The Land use authority there's there can be 3. It depends on what the what the. | 00:47:03 | |
Like a land use application, the Planning Commission of holiday is designated. | 00:47:08 | |
Staff when you guys say. | 00:47:13 | |
Designate final final approval to staff. You're designating for that particular application the staff as a land use authority. | 00:47:16 | |
So anyway. | 00:47:24 | |
That was your. | 00:47:27 | |
Shall approve it conditional use if the reasonable conditions are proposed or can be imposed. | 00:47:32 | |
To mitigate the reasonably anticipated detrimental. | 00:47:38 | |
Other proposed? | 00:47:41 | |
In accord. | 00:47:43 | |
And by design, they're meant to be flexible. | 00:47:45 | |
So there is. | 00:47:48 | |
There's also. | 00:47:51 | |
But it does again seem to favor. | 00:47:56 | |
The land use application, so it's more rather than less generous toward the person asking to do something. | 00:47:59 | |
And that's why Blood was specifically says. | 00:48:06 | |
If it's not prohibited. | 00:48:09 | |
It is permitted. | 00:48:11 | |
That's right. Wait a minute. | 00:48:14 | |
And it's basically because. | 00:48:17 | |
The legislature has designated that private property rights. | 00:48:22 | |
Are incredibly important. | 00:48:28 | |
And allowing people to use their. | 00:48:30 | |
In a way. | 00:48:34 | |
May impact your neighbor, but not so much that you can't do anything. | 00:48:35 | |
I mean, if you wanted to prohibit everything, you're allowed to live there, you're allowed to plant 8 trees. | 00:48:39 | |
You can have 65 square feet of flower space. | 00:48:44 | |
And that's it. And if you want a driveway, it shall be Gray and it shall be concrete. | 00:48:48 | |
There's no credit thing else, No Co. | 00:48:53 | |
No pavers. That's it. | 00:48:56 | |
You want to have some flexibility with your. | 00:48:58 | |
Legislature. | 00:49:01 | |
It makes sense to have houses grouped together and then have sections. | 00:49:03 | |
Grocery stores can be located, gas stations can be located. | 00:49:09 | |
Laundromats. | 00:49:13 | |
Dry cleaners. Dry. | 00:49:14 | |
Restaurants. | 00:49:16 | |
Keep that in a separate way. We don't need to have that in the middle. | 00:49:18 | |
Use. | 00:49:25 | |
You get. | 00:49:32 | |
Residential. | 00:49:34 | |
We're not going to go into too much about appeal authority. You can talk about that a little bit. | 00:49:36 | |
Can be a hearing. | 00:49:44 | |
To be a court judge. | 00:49:46 | |
City Council Sometimes the City Council considers the bill 42. | 00:49:52 | |
So let's say a neighborhood wants to appeal. | 00:49:58 | |
An approval for a site plan. | 00:50:02 | |
That the Planning Commission has done. We're the ultimate authority on that right? | 00:50:04 | |
So you're the decision. So they appeal the ultimate decision makers authority. | 00:50:10 | |
Right. So it was in holiday? | 00:50:19 | |
Oh, OK. | 00:50:23 | |
So there's not a board of adjustment. | 00:50:25 | |
So, you know, holiday. | 00:50:27 | |
OK, that's fine. | 00:50:33 | |
Thank you. There might be one or two ordinances that still have a board of adjustment listed in it. | 00:50:37 | |
But I think it is. | 00:50:41 | |
The city councillor, city manager. | 00:50:43 | |
A point of adjustment, OK. There's some of those in holidays as well. | 00:50:46 | |
Thank you, Brad. In that case, where you have an applicant or a landowner, the landowner applicant, can the public appeal a | 00:50:51 | |
Planning Commission decision? | 00:50:57 | |
Or does it? My understanding is that the? | 00:51:03 | |
Is entitled to appeal, but the public in general wouldn't because that would follow a referendum process. | 00:51:07 | |
Like a preliminary approval, that's not a final decision. So you can't, you can't appeal anything unless it's a final decision, | 00:51:24 | |
unless it's final. | 00:51:28 | |
And so if it's a rezone. | 00:51:33 | |
This is. | 00:51:38 | |
The legislature has changed this a couple of times over the last. | 00:51:40 | |
But at 1:00. | 00:51:45 | |
The state code said that you cannot APPE. | 00:51:47 | |
A referendum, right? And that's how planned decisions will appear. The single spot zone. | 00:51:51 | |
Decision. Spot, zoning decision, single piece of problem. You can't. | 00:51:57 | |
But they changed that. | 00:52:03 | |
Hasn't come up, but I we had one in in some account. | 00:52:07 | |
There was a land use decision that zone change. | 00:52:10 | |
And basically it was. | 00:52:15 | |
The property passed away. | 00:52:19 | |
Their children inherit the. | 00:52:22 | |
Want to? | 00:52:25 | |
43 acres. | 00:52:26 | |
And they It was within the city limits. | 00:52:29 | |
For a rezone. | 00:52:33 | |
From. | 00:52:34 | |
Which is allow you in that one zone in this particular. | 00:52:37 | |
You can put one acre lots on it. | 00:52:40 | |
They wanted to get presidential half the developer. They had a contract. | 00:52:43 | |
Ran through. | 00:52:48 | |
The City Council approved. | 00:52:50 | |
Was that The Who challenged it on a referendum? The public of the residents? | 00:52:56 | |
So but. | 00:53:02 | |
So basically. | 00:53:04 | |
What happened? | 00:53:08 | |
So, so and the referendum mean everyone in the city is voting on it? Yes, yes. So it goes to a ballot. What happened? | 00:53:10 | |
So the legislature changed a few things about what reference what is allowed to do. | 00:53:20 | |
Because basically the developers were basically the council has no. | 00:53:28 | |
The council and the ordinances and the policy are enacted don't mean anything. | 00:53:32 | |
And the residents of the city can prevent any reason they can't prevent the development because they could still put, you know, 42 | 00:53:36 | |
homes on it they want. | 00:53:41 | |
Any outside. | 00:53:46 | |
But there are. I think there's 40. | 00:53:50 | |
And then the legislature. | 00:53:58 | |
Like, maybe we don't want quite so many referendums, yeah? | 00:54:05 | |
You know, it was it was kind of funny because I got a call from a legislative staffer and says, hey, we got your letter. | 00:54:10 | |
It's like a blood letter. | 00:54:16 | |
You wrote about six months ago that said this is not a referral item. | 00:54:18 | |
They're upset about. | 00:54:22 | |
Just quote of the log and. | 00:54:28 | |
Anyway. | 00:54:31 | |
Sometimes, sometimes you. | 00:54:35 | |
Doesn't actually mean. | 00:54:38 | |
And sometimes the legislature is behind. | 00:54:42 | |
On court decisions and incorporating. | 00:54:45 | |
Flight summary, There's appeals. | 00:54:55 | |
And there's different processes. | 00:54:59 | |
I don't want to. | 00:55:10 | |
That's an hour. That's an hour sold. About an hour. Can we get a copy of this? This is a great yeah. And this is a really helpful | 00:55:14 | |
table to you that breaks down legislative versus administrative. | 00:55:20 | |
And do me a favor and just pull out the slide with the table as well, so we get the whole deal and then just the table, just this | 00:55:30 | |
one. | 00:55:33 | |
Send them both. | 00:55:38 | |
Thank you. | 00:55:42 | |
Thanks. We have three more hours. | 00:55:43 | |
Model through this over the year. | 00:55:46 | |
Like a good filler, very relevant to the right. I'm glad everyone could be here to attend too, because that's do we have the | 00:55:50 | |
paperwork we have to sign off on? | 00:55:55 | |
We just have to keep track of it. | 00:56:01 | |
I'll put it in the table. | 00:56:04 | |
Make sure we can. | 00:56:09 | |
Find the road. | 00:56:12 | |
And this is a serious ***** thing. They were. | 00:56:18 | |
Winds and I text from my 14 years about an inch. It's all white out there, right? Let's go quickly. | 00:56:21 | |
All right, so nobody needs a break. We can just roll right into our agenda item, right? | 00:56:30 | |
All right. And with the long anticipated. | 00:56:36 | |
Exciting. | 00:56:39 | |
Conditional use text amendment. | 00:56:41 | |
OK. Gary, do you all care if I present from here about the podium? Great. | 00:56:44 | |
So this is continuation of our meeting that was held in December. | 00:56:52 | |
There were some changes. | 00:56:58 | |
Made based off of the direction from the Planning Commission comments. | 00:57:01 | |
Those are highlighted. | 00:57:07 | |
In the text that's attached to this. | 00:57:10 | |
Basically, let's see. | 00:57:14 | |
There were changes on parking. | 00:57:22 | |
Key point being. | 00:57:26 | |
On street parking is limited to 1 vehicle. | 00:57:30 | |
And needs to be located immediately adjacent to the home or within 200 feet. | 00:57:33 | |
I'm wondering on that particular bullet point, just because we brought up the Cello property a couple times tonight. As fate would | 00:57:41 | |
have it, on my way to this meeting there was a. | 00:57:48 | |
Bryce Brand new, nice car that parked on the opposite side of the street, 4 houses down. | 00:57:55 | |
And as they were getting out and I was going up my street, I had to stop. As they kind of Jay walked diagonally to that property, | 00:58:02 | |
I'm wondering if there's anything that could. | 00:58:07 | |
Put a preference, I don't know if we could require, but put a preference that they have to park on the same side of the street as | 00:58:13 | |
the property to help eliminate that potential safety jaywalking aspect of it. | 00:58:19 | |
I think that's easy to request. | 00:58:26 | |
But it's hard to enforce. | 00:58:31 | |
So could we put like preferred same side as house or something? | 00:58:33 | |
Yeah. And that we have the. | 00:58:38 | |
We could put that in the code, preferably or. | 00:58:41 | |
Addressing safety. | 00:58:45 | |
I don't know how we'd every neighborhood has people walking across their streets illegally all the time. Kids playing in the | 00:58:48 | |
street. I. | 00:58:53 | |
I know it does. | 00:59:00 | |
But you know, we wouldn't put that restriction on people having a church meeting or anything else. I mean, I we we seem to want to | 00:59:03 | |
have more restrictions on home occupation than other normal residential uses. | 00:59:09 | |
And if if HOMEOC is a permitted residential use, I don't know why we want to treat it that much differently. | 00:59:16 | |
I mean that's like how how restricted, I mean I like parking plans. I think that's a good thing that you guys can work with given | 00:59:24 | |
you know, OK you know staggering arrival times and stuff like that, but at some point I mean. | 00:59:31 | |
Jaywalking on a cul-de-sac. What is that? OK, Who's going to enforce that? | 00:59:40 | |
Sure. And it's just more just the concern of if there was a preference given to the client because it was outlined to the | 00:59:45 | |
applicant, Hey, crying, if you're going to park down the street, please park on my if there is parking available, which there was. | 00:59:50 | |
This guy was just in a hurry, so he just pulled over and parked and walked across the street and didn't mind little old me driving | 00:59:54 | |
up my street. | 00:59:59 | |
For I thought about laying on the horn, but I figured I'll be nice, you know? | 01:00:04 | |
Didn't want his kid to drop the cello. | 01:00:10 | |
As as we review applications, we can look at where their parking is being proposed and maybe suggest that of like oh if you have | 01:00:13 | |
people parking, maybe you want to encourage your clients to park on the same side of the street. | 01:00:20 | |
For safety. | 01:00:28 | |
But to actually have it outlined in the code is it has to be on the same side of the street that. | 01:00:30 | |
I It might be a little too restrictive. Gotcha. OK, just a thought. Enforcement issue, right? Yeah. | 01:00:35 | |
Is it reactionary? | 01:00:43 | |
Proactive. | 01:00:49 | |
We don't have a stakeout on the cello house. | 01:00:50 | |
Well. | 01:00:54 | |
I had a couple of questions. | 01:00:59 | |
One this is this is a little bit broader than the parking, but last time, gingerbread up. | 01:01:03 | |
The thought that. | 01:01:11 | |
About public hearings and so, so this. | 01:01:14 | |
Amendment would take out like the public notice right. Right And and in some ways I think that could be a good thing. I I can't | 01:01:19 | |
remember who brought it up but the idea that if you're if you want to run a home based therapy business I don't think your | 01:01:23 | |
neighbors should know that everyone walking into your house needs therapy. That seems like a privacy violation but it also seems | 01:01:27 | |
like actually. | 01:01:32 | |
It does make it more proactive to have neighbors be like, hey, I'm concerned about this and mitigate it. | 01:01:37 | |
Beforehand rather. | 01:01:45 | |
Have neighbors called the cops on their? That just seems like actually, you know, it seems reactive, and it seems like it could | 01:01:47 | |
put people in awkward or. | 01:01:52 | |
Situations with their neighbors. So I'm I'm just trying to I don't know what the answer is but I'm trying to figure out how could | 01:01:57 | |
we balance this idea of sort of privacy and. | 01:02:02 | |
Streamlining the process while. | 01:02:07 | |
Somehow getting input from neighbors to preemptively say. | 01:02:11 | |
This corner is kind of a tricky corner, or we've got these considerations. | 01:02:15 | |
Instead of having it be on the back end where your neighbors are unhappy and their only option at that point is to call code | 01:02:21 | |
enforcement. Does that make sense? | 01:02:25 | |
Yeah. And that's, I mean we get, we get calls from neighborhood neighbors all the time about, you know, parking issues. A lot of | 01:02:29 | |
times those calls are met with, you know, streets are public right, of ways. And we don't regulate parking on streets beyond, you | 01:02:35 | |
know, if a car is parked there for longer than 24 hours at a time, if a car is parked there during a snowstorm, those are | 01:02:41 | |
instances that we would. | 01:02:48 | |
Regulate that. So, following that same kind of process with a home occupation, here's what our standards are for the home | 01:02:54 | |
occupation. This person has a license. | 01:03:00 | |
These are the standards that they're operating within. If you notice that they're operating outside of these standards, please let | 01:03:06 | |
us know and we can. | 01:03:10 | |
Follow an enforcement process for that. | 01:03:16 | |
We do have and. | 01:03:20 | |
On our GIS portal. | 01:03:23 | |
We have this Holiday Business license locations in our interactive maps. Cool. | 01:03:25 | |
So and we do have a lot of home businesses already on here. | 01:03:31 | |
So people who have business licenses, they are shown on this map. | 01:03:36 | |
It doesn't give any details. | 01:03:41 | |
The legend is over here. I didn't see you follow your neighbors. I've got there. So it shows occupied or mobile business. So you | 01:03:46 | |
see in this neighborhood there's some blue ones. So those are like mobile businesses where they're. | 01:03:52 | |
You know, operating in other locations, but it's based out of their home. | 01:03:59 | |
Occupied our. | 01:04:04 | |
These licens. | 01:04:06 | |
There's some that are likely occupied. Those are you see those more in commercial spaces? | 01:04:09 | |
Vacancies. | 01:04:15 | |
So that's the level of detail. | 01:04:17 | |
It doesn't give an exact. | 01:04:19 | |
But I. | 01:04:23 | |
Pinpointed on. | 01:04:25 | |
So people can see where businesses are operating. We also utilize this if somebody calls and says, you know, here's this my | 01:04:27 | |
neighbor's operating business, here's my concerns. | 01:04:34 | |
We can say, oh, they have a license. | 01:04:41 | |
Here's what their standards. | 01:04:44 | |
So I think there is an enforcement route, there's a way for people to be informed and if they do have concerns. | 01:04:48 | |
We can address those concerns either through enforcement or by answering questions, giving information to whoever is calling. | 01:04:54 | |
Uh-huh. | 01:05:01 | |
I think that's very. | 01:05:05 | |
To know so that you know, you see. | 01:05:07 | |
There's something going on in your neighbor's house regularly. | 01:05:12 | |
You go online and find that, oh, they have business license. I'm going to go find out what city. | 01:05:16 | |
Yeah. And they can do a records request for somebody's business license as well. | 01:05:22 | |
There seems to be an abnormal amount of traffic coming to and away from my neighbor's house. | 01:05:29 | |
And then it doesn't get into like a personal detail situation where. | 01:05:36 | |
Giving out so much personal details on somebody's business operations. Instead it's they have a business license. Here's what | 01:05:40 | |
their business is for. | 01:05:44 | |
Or the name of their business. You know what their business license and tells. Here's the standards the home based businesses all | 01:05:48 | |
have to meet. | 01:05:52 | |
If they're operating outside of those standards, then. | 01:05:57 | |
Follow an enforcement. | 01:06:00 | |
Here, as I can tell, I don't either. | 01:06:03 | |
Just to chill out, is there any? | 01:06:06 | |
Minimum threshold below which people don't need a license at all, like if they teach one violin lesson a month. | 01:06:11 | |
No. Anytime you have clients that are coming to your house for business purposes, you would need a. | 01:06:18 | |
Currently a conditional use permit. | 01:06:26 | |
If you don't have any clients coming to your house, you're not required to have a business license at all. | 01:06:30 | |
Some people opt to have a business license that's called an unregulated business use or an unregulated home occupation. | 01:06:37 | |
Some people choose to do a business license anyway if their home insurance wants it, or some other sort of funding, or whatever. | 01:06:46 | |
They want a business license so they can apply for a business license, renew it every year. It's $20.00, but they're not required | 01:06:51 | |
by the city to have it. | 01:06:57 | |
Is there any world in which we would, as a city, consider like you're teaching two lessons a month? | 01:07:03 | |
We don't. We don't even care. You don't even have to tell us about it. Is there a world in which we would? | 01:07:10 | |
Think about that. I'm just. I'm just. | 01:07:16 | |
Because the easier it is to do this, I think the more people will do it legally. But is there a threshold? We're like, you know | 01:07:18 | |
what, don't? | 01:07:22 | |
Don't worry about it. You're doing that twice a month. We Don. | 01:07:25 | |
We're not going. | 01:07:28 | |
Make you get a lighting at that point. It would be that your neighbors are not likely to notice that. | 01:07:30 | |
Anyway. | 01:07:35 | |
Just flying under the radar, Yeah, No, but I mean, you know, if they want to comply with the law, but it's like tiny. It's not a | 01:07:38 | |
busy, you know, it's not a business. It's like. | 01:07:42 | |
How does a service like yard sales or people that are Facebook marketplace, KSL gurus, how does that factor in there? So like | 01:07:46 | |
pallet cells if you have people coming to pick up items from your house that you're selling as a business? | 01:07:53 | |
Then you would need to have a home occupation. | 01:08:01 | |
If. | 01:08:04 | |
It's a side hustle out of their, out of their. It's less than 500 a year. I don't have to claim it on taxes. | 01:08:06 | |
I know that. | 01:08:13 | |
Actually does allow, isn't it? It allows for A1 yard sale per year I believe. | 01:08:15 | |
Yeah. So if you have a yard sale one whole quarter, you have to apply for a business license. | 01:08:23 | |
Yes. | 01:08:34 | |
Who's going to do that? I don't know. Right. You're going to say, oh, you've had your one yard sale per year? | 01:08:37 | |
But you could see how if you're we had a. | 01:08:43 | |
Down our street that they said they were having an estate sale every single Saturday. Yes. And their front yard was littered with | 01:08:48 | |
junk. Yes. And that becomes an issue because your code then. | 01:08:54 | |
It was an issue, but if you're having one once 1/4 and they clean it up and. | 01:09:02 | |
Who's going to help, right? | 01:09:06 | |
Yeah. | 01:09:09 | |
I guess my question. | 01:09:12 | |
I guess my question is. | 01:09:15 | |
So I'm imagining, I know several people who are just, like, very scrupulous, right? They want to be legal, They want to be good | 01:09:18 | |
citizens. And if it says you have to have a business license for one lesson a month? | 01:09:23 | |
They won't. They won't do the lesson rather than not. Like, you're right, the neighbors won't care, the neighbors won't know, but | 01:09:28 | |
they want to be law abiding citizens. Is there? Is there some way to write it into the code to say there is some threshold, not | 01:09:32 | |
just? | 01:09:37 | |
We're waiting for the neighbors to notice that you're doing something illegal. Does that make sense? Like it's it's more of a. | 01:09:42 | |
Putting their mind at rest, you don't have to go through the trouble of getting a business license if it's under this very, very | 01:09:48 | |
low thing, you know, having run a code compliance department. | 01:09:54 | |
The If you wherever you draw the line, everyone who's violating it will claim they're under the line and make the city prove they | 01:10:01 | |
have more than two, or more than three, or more than four. | 01:10:06 | |
It really is easier to say here's the hard line and that and and that if if you say it's two lessons a month and then the | 01:10:11 | |
neighbors say, Oh no, I see that, you know, then we send to have to send code people out and watch through binoculars and count | 01:10:19 | |
cars and all that. And it's not worth the hassle because people use that number and they they they're willing to swear in court | 01:10:27 | |
that they, you know, and I only had to well other than last week when I had four. But that was a special circumstance. | 01:10:35 | |
I averaged it over the last five years. And I mean, yeah, it's easier to have yes or no than it is to have a number. | 01:10:43 | |
And then? | 01:10:53 | |
So I guess it's true on the opposite end then too, as far as how much traffic is coming in. | 01:10:56 | |
And because if the if we just have established hours of operation between 7:00 AM and 10:00 that they can do recitals twice a | 01:11:12 | |
month. | 01:11:17 | |
That group lessons can only have. | 01:11:23 | |
You know, six people at a time, but there isn't any kind of regulation of how many people can actually be coming in and out if you | 01:11:26 | |
have every half hour somebody coming into a home from 7:00 AM until 10:00 PM. | 01:11:33 | |
And sometimes three and four people coming in every half hour. You know this business that I have on my street, they have three | 01:11:41 | |
different beds. | 01:11:45 | |
That they have three different clients at one time. | 01:11:50 | |
Which under this standard would be. | 01:11:55 | |
Permissible. Do they have multiple employees? | 01:11:58 | |
They have one employee. | 01:12:02 | |
So with one. | 01:12:06 | |
And their clients staggered. | 01:12:09 | |
It gets to a point where it's. | 01:12:13 | |
If you're operating for that many hours. | 01:12:16 | |
Staff would look at that and say this. | 01:12:20 | |
Way beyond what would be a normal use. | 01:12:23 | |
They live there and they have. So this is this is where the other thing they have a home and they are you. Currently they're using | 01:12:32 | |
their garage or. | 01:12:36 | |
Which isn't permissible right now, right? But under this it would be. | 01:12:43 | |
So if that's the case, then where does the residential versus if they have an accelerated accessory dwelling unit? | 01:12:48 | |
So they can't. Did you see what eliminate their garage parking? | 01:12:58 | |
Operating the business 15 hours out of the day. | 01:13:03 | |
My argument is it's not that the business is no longer. | 01:13:06 | |
A secondary or accessory use. | 01:13:10 | |
To the. | 01:13:12 | |
Because they live there. So is there something I didn't see it that says that, That says if it's. | 01:13:13 | |
Up to a certain amount of time that it's, it just says if it's, but I think that's the legal argument. | 01:13:19 | |
This is no longer the primary use of this facility is no longer. | 01:13:29 | |
Residential. | 01:13:34 | |
Primarily commercial. | 01:13:36 | |
And that changes the character. | 01:13:38 | |
But if I remember better, this person doesn't have a business. | 01:13:40 | |
They have a business license. They do have a business license. | 01:13:43 | |
You don't have a conditional use permit. | 01:13:47 | |
But, and I don't mean to single out, I'm just using this as an example like it, it gets to the point where if you've got that | 01:13:51 | |
going on, it just seems like there's a lot of and going back to our training that if the land user if they go well. | 01:13:59 | |
I'm living here. I have 5 kids that all live here. | 01:14:08 | |
This is our. | 01:14:13 | |
Isn't that going to take precedence over a single? You're operating 15 hours a day. It sure doesn't seem like this is. | 01:14:15 | |
Primarily a. | 01:14:23 | |
That's where the argument comes in. | 01:14:26 | |
Is so. | 01:14:28 | |
You're going to have a dispute and a disagreement. | 01:14:31 | |
And if it's that, if you're having that many, if it's three at a time or an hour, you're having 45 people. | 01:14:34 | |
Come to the home in a day. | 01:14:41 | |
I think that's a fairly easy argument to make. OK, changing the character of that so there doesn't need to be something clearer in | 01:14:44 | |
our ordinance in our. | 01:14:49 | |
Language. | 01:14:54 | |
So our language says that ensure that home occupations are compatible with. | 01:14:56 | |
The zone which they're located. | 01:15:02 | |
Having no negative impacts on the surrounding neighborhood. | 01:15:04 | |
And do not have combined off site impacts. | 01:15:09 | |
Of the home based business, so off site would be. | 01:15:12 | |
Streets, Traffic, not on the property itself. | 01:15:15 | |
Offsite impact. | 01:15:19 | |
And the primary I like a three. | 01:15:21 | |
But. | 01:15:25 | |
Where it says no negative impacts, that's just simply not true. | 01:15:26 | |
And that and I on my little list of edits. I think that language in three belongs up and a somewhere. | 01:15:30 | |
And may belong in three as well. But to say having no negative impacts on the surrounding neighborhood, that's impossible standard | 01:15:39 | |
because there's always impacts. | 01:15:44 | |
And that. | 01:15:50 | |
And then and three is a reasonable standard and maybe a legally defensible standard. | 01:15:52 | |
If this neighbor came in and applied for a business license and said, oh, we'll be open with three clients and 45 people a day and | 01:15:59 | |
all that. You can use this provision in three to deny that or to restrict it to something more reasonable with normal residential | 01:16:06 | |
use, like 6 or 8 trips a day. | 01:16:13 | |
And that's what I was looking for. It's just something more. I think 3 is good language. I just think it contradicts or is not | 01:16:20 | |
consistent with having no negative impacts. That's an impossibly high standard. | 01:16:26 | |
Minimal negative effects. | 01:16:34 | |
And I was just going to suggest you strike that and rely on a three. | 01:16:38 | |
As the method of. | 01:16:43 | |
When you get information, you know and. | 01:16:46 | |
Going to exceed the reasonable residential impact then you can deny it. So maybe instead of having saying no negative impacts. | 01:16:50 | |
Saying that insurers primary residential use. | 01:17:01 | |
Or. | 01:17:06 | |
Home occupations are an accessory use. Yeah something like that. And rather than no prime, yeah because I agree with not to over | 01:17:08 | |
not to oversimplify it but could you maybe just put having minimal to know so that there's still subjectivity but it's not an | 01:17:15 | |
absolute 0 threshold of subjectivity it's just minimal being like or having reasonable impacts and we and later in the here we | 01:17:22 | |
define what reasonable is. I just I just seem like an impossible standard to say no impact because any neighbor could come and | 01:17:29 | |
make an argument about. | 01:17:36 | |
Well, obviously this has a negative impact. That's why I'm here. | 01:17:43 | |
Yeah, there's one car trip or a day. That's five people coming in there. They leave at 10:00, at 9:59 when the last count, you | 01:17:46 | |
know, right, whatever. So that that was my first really technical. | 01:17:52 | |
Saying I love freebie or a three, I think that's exactly what you'd want. | 01:17:58 | |
And I do think that would solve your. Yeah. Thank you. I appreciate. Yeah. And kind of to follow up on that because I didn't ask | 01:18:05 | |
it before. So someone comes in and says that our hours of operation are going to be, you know, 3:00 to 2:00 or 8:00 to 2:00, you | 01:18:13 | |
know, three days a week when you grant the business license. Is that the hours of operation for that business license or does this | 01:18:21 | |
automatically grant the ability of the person to operate at any point? | 01:18:30 | |
From 7:00 in the morning till 10, seven days a week. If it's a conditional use and that is a stated condition in the conditional | 01:18:38 | |
use of those are their hours of operation. OK, if it's just a business license and. | 01:18:45 | |
And it's not a conditional use. | 01:18:52 | |
So really they can come in and say anything they want to get the business license and then immediately expand to the full. | 01:18:56 | |
7 to 10, but you're going to know, I mean if we have new conditional units, if there's visitors to the to the home based business, | 01:19:05 | |
then we have the opportunity to. | 01:19:09 | |
But I mean can't can the license establish the hours of operation to match what they requested and say yes, that's reasonable. | 01:19:14 | |
Reasonable. And that and that. And then they want to expand. Should they have to come back in and and. | 01:19:22 | |
Repurchase, yes. But again, it comes down to an enforcement issue. We have a 7:00 to 10:00 PM. It's easy to say, oh, you're | 01:19:30 | |
operating outside of that, you can. | 01:19:34 | |
But if it's down to the individual business license. | 01:19:39 | |
I guess that's just one more step. | 01:19:42 | |
Is there a way to? | 01:19:45 | |
Include in the process of getting a business license, is this a home based business or not? That was a question I had too. And | 01:19:48 | |
then that if they say yeah yeah they check a box, then they have to. | 01:19:55 | |
So I think Steph looks at that of the address, right? Yes. So if the address is a home, they automatically have to get pushed into | 01:20:02 | |
the home base, right. It's a different, I mean it's a business license, but it's a different. | 01:20:08 | |
Set of standards of where they're located. | 01:20:15 | |
And that's possible that then in so as the Planning Commission, you're only overseeing Title 13? | 01:20:19 | |
But Title 5 is business licensing. | 01:20:28 | |
So that might be something. | 01:20:31 | |
Could be changed in the business licensing? | 01:20:35 | |
Title of limiting hours of operation. | 01:20:38 | |
As stated on a business license for home occupations and that would have to be decided by your business license official. | 01:20:44 | |
And then City Council. | 01:20:52 | |
How do we or do we have the? | 01:20:54 | |
To protect. | 01:20:59 | |
From. | 01:21:01 | |
As have arisen. | 01:21:03 | |
In Ginger's neighborhood. | 01:21:06 | |
You know, we've got a home based business in her neighborhood. | 01:21:07 | |
That is disruptive. | 01:21:12 | |
So I would say with that business, they're likely operating outside of what standards would be. They haven't gotten a conditional | 01:21:14 | |
use permit. There hasn't been conditions that have been imposed. We don't have this set of standards that they're not operating | 01:21:20 | |
under. They have a business license for their business. | 01:21:25 | |
But not a business license for or a conditional use permit for the operation business license, like if they looked up the address. | 01:21:32 | |
How did they get the business? | 01:21:39 | |
The way you look at that, you can. | 01:21:41 | |
Report. Well, they have to be. So they might. The applications are private, Yeah. They may not have stated the full intent of | 01:21:43 | |
their business. They may have just applied for a business license and said I'm operating a business outside of our home. Our | 01:21:50 | |
business license official is very good at if you're having clients come to your house, you need to have a conditional use permit. | 01:21:57 | |
Now it's up to the applicant then to apply for that conditional use permit. Is there. I guess this would be making it. | 01:22:05 | |
It seems like there shouldn't be that gap though, to like, oh, you gotta do this thing and then they have to do the thing like, | 01:22:14 | |
can it be something? | 01:22:17 | |
More automatic, you know, like you don't get the license for the business of its home occupied until you do the thing. | 01:22:21 | |
If there's So what likely happened is that they looked into it. | 01:22:27 | |
And I don't know this person at all. | 01:22:32 | |
What likely happened is they looked into what it takes to do what they want to do and they thought, well that's burden so I'm not | 01:22:35 | |
going to do it. I'm just going to not check this box here. I don't have anything complaints coming to my home check and then. | 01:22:40 | |
I mean, we're relying staff is relying on the person. | 01:22:47 | |
Be honest on. | 01:22:51 | |
And forthright and what they're putting on the application and we don't have any way to say. | 01:22:52 | |
Sally lied on her application, right? Or go watch their house and say let me make sure that nobody's coming to your house and | 01:22:58 | |
they'll figure it out when Ginger calls code enforcement and they finally come and get their use permit, which is which is what | 01:23:03 | |
happens. | 01:23:08 | |
What one question I guess too is. | 01:23:15 | |
So once code enforcement gets called, is the process then like, hey, we're going to revoke your license, which is encouraging | 01:23:18 | |
people to, I don't know. | 01:23:21 | |
Do massages on the black market or does it is it more like, hey, these problems are happening, let's talk about mitigation and it | 01:23:26 | |
goes back to this thing about yes, conditions, so with the cello lessons. | 01:23:32 | |
That was a code enforcement call, so started with code enforcement. | 01:23:38 | |
We issued a notice of violation. | 01:23:44 | |
The terms of that notice of violation is that you have to be compliant with the code. | 01:23:46 | |
Part of being compliant is getting a conditional use permit. | 01:23:51 | |
So then the applicant turned in a conditional use permit. We went through that whole process. | 01:23:54 | |
That's kind of where we started looking at. | 01:24:00 | |
Do we want to even have conditional use permits? | 01:24:04 | |
Can we move it to a set list of standards so that? | 01:24:07 | |
Where we're. | 01:24:11 | |
Making it easier for an applicant. You have people who apply for business licenses, don't want to go through a process of having a | 01:24:13 | |
public hearing, a Planning Commission and scheduling and all of that just to. | 01:24:19 | |
Have people who are coming to their house twice a month. | 01:24:26 | |
Or once a week. | 01:24:30 | |
You know, whatever frequency they're like, oh, I don't want to do that for the amount of time that I have people that are coming | 01:24:34 | |
to my house. So changing it to a list of standards, we can say yes, you check all these standards or here's what you have to | 01:24:39 | |
comply by. | 01:24:44 | |
If you have people who are coming to your house. | 01:24:50 | |
You don't have to go through a process of a public hearing. | 01:24:52 | |
Planning. | 01:24:55 | |
All of that. | 01:24:56 | |
Do you still have to come but you still have to come? See somebody on staff in person? | 01:24:58 | |
Well, you can you submit an application, It has to have all the details included so they don't have to walk into the City Hall or. | 01:25:03 | |
Anything. If it's like, oh this looks good, check. | 01:25:10 | |
OK, so our review process is interactive for Wilson. They submit through an online portal. They have to have all their details. If | 01:25:14 | |
they don't have all their details, their application is incomplete. We send them back comments that say you need to submit these | 01:25:20 | |
details. | 01:25:25 | |
So then they submit the details and then we can comment. | 01:25:32 | |
You need to address this. You need to address this. | 01:25:36 | |
That seems reasonable to me. | 01:25:40 | |
I had another question, but it's changing. I mean it's looking at another part. | 01:25:43 | |
Is that OK? | 01:25:47 | |
Where is it? There's a line about something about something. Something about 1/4 of a mile. Something. Something. | 01:25:49 | |
You don't know about operating within one. Here it is one 32133, line 132 if it blah blah blah. If additional home occupations are | 01:25:56 | |
being connected with them, 1/4 mile additional conditions to mitigate in petrol, blah blah. | 01:26:04 | |
So is that. | 01:26:12 | |
Again, is that only proactive or if somebody applies for a license, right? Is it, is this saying you would then go back to the | 01:26:14 | |
other two people on the street who also are legitimately operating and they had mitigation things and say, hey, by the way, we | 01:26:21 | |
have to now mitigate with a third one in mind. Does that make sense? No, it would apply to only the new application. So it's | 01:26:27 | |
saying that if you're applying for a home occupation and there's already one that's existing within 1/4 mile, we're going to look | 01:26:33 | |
at that. | 01:26:39 | |
Existing one, right? | 01:26:46 | |
And might create some additional conditions maybe offset times we say, OK, they're operating. | 01:26:47 | |
These times or they have pickups that for these times, so thus. | 01:26:54 | |
Operation would need to be offset from that. So does disadvantaged people who are applying later. | 01:26:59 | |
Yes, yeah. | 01:27:05 | |
Good questions. So then somebody who's applying later might just have more stringent things in order to operate instead of | 01:27:11 | |
equalizing them across. | 01:27:15 | |
Businesses, right? | 01:27:21 | |
I don't know how I feel about that. Let me think about that. | 01:27:23 | |
Can we jump to the list of prohibited and then I appreciate you dealing with the ammunition. I have two or three other thoughts on | 01:27:29 | |
this one. Number two has kennels and I'd like to add animal husbandry to that list. | 01:27:36 | |
Like animal husbandry and or camels and then. | 01:27:44 | |
The breeding of any kind of animals as a home occupation, I think is problematic. | 01:27:49 | |
Yeah, I will have a lot of that addressed in our allowed uses table. | 01:27:55 | |
So these prohibited uses were based off of things that were not explicitly in our and if it's somewhere else in the ordinance, I | 01:28:01 | |
just wanted to make sure that it showed up there definitions as well. So some of those breeding cell of animals. | 01:28:09 | |
Small. | 01:28:19 | |
Home breeding businesses. | 01:28:21 | |
Defined in the definitions. | 01:28:23 | |
As not allowed or allowed. So we went off of the allowed use table and then added specifics and prohibited that we're not the next | 01:28:26 | |
one on there was they went on welding shops and and machine shops and. | 01:28:33 | |
And a couple of other ordinances I looked at and it's fabrication. So it's broader than just. | 01:28:42 | |
In other words, if you're fabricating stuff that seems to inherently bring noise or equipment or gas. | 01:28:50 | |
You know power or whatever and that and. | 01:28:57 | |
I'd like to broaden that to fabrication. And then just could that be again for the like 3D printers though, which are in the house | 01:29:01 | |
and quite quiet. I think printers are fabrication. | 01:29:07 | |
If you're a 3D printer is for sure. Yeah. Metal, metal fabric. Yeah. Right, right. Gotcha. Yeah. So you know, just a little, you | 01:29:14 | |
know, because if they say I, well, I don't have the press and I don't have the welding, but I assemble a bunch of metal stuff, | 01:29:21 | |
yeah, they have something that is going to be so I think a little broader so. | 01:29:28 | |
Fabrication. Metal fabrication, yeah, metal fabrication, I think, yeah, it's metals and that I wood is kind of. | 01:29:37 | |
Because we get all people making Santa Clauses all year in their garage. | 01:29:45 | |
It creates so many. | 01:29:52 | |
Well, you can't fill the boat. Your middle boat's in your backyard. | 01:30:07 | |
And the other one was the prohibition on tattoos and body art. | 01:30:15 | |
And my question is why that? | 01:30:21 | |
Particular. | 01:30:25 | |
Or ethnic, I mean, we do. | 01:30:27 | |
Hairstyling in Homes Why can't we do tattooing? | 01:30:31 | |
Tattooing and body art is not allowed in holiday at all. | 01:30:34 | |
Just like smoke shops. | 01:30:40 | |
OK, there's a story. | 01:30:43 | |
OK. Yeah. So cosmetics, permanent cosmetics. | 01:30:47 | |
Yes. | 01:30:51 | |
Tattoos and body art? No. So I can get my eyebrows, but I can't get a skull? Yes. All right. | 01:30:53 | |
So you have a lot of people who are that start out in permanent cosmetics doing like microblading. | 01:31:00 | |
For eyebrows. And then they'll transition and become a fine line tattoo artist. | 01:31:09 | |
But they can't do that within their. So you'll have like somebody who's renting a booth doing microblading and then they'll start | 01:31:15 | |
doing. | 01:31:20 | |
Fine. Line body. | 01:31:24 | |
But we got saved. No, you cannot do body art. It's limited to this specific permanent cosmetic tattooing only. | 01:31:27 | |
What's the reason for? | 01:31:37 | |
It creates if you're saying OK now you can do fine line tattoo, what's the difference between how do you say yes you can do that, | 01:31:41 | |
but you can't do a tattoo that is. | 01:31:47 | |
Larger or involves more colors. | 01:31:52 | |
Why can't they do that? Why can't they do tattooing in holiday? | 01:31:55 | |
Land use. That's just what it was decided by City Council as to be. | 01:32:02 | |
Not permitted use. | 01:32:08 | |
I agree it shouldn't be on the list if we don't allow commercial. | 01:32:10 | |
And you're telling me we don't allow? | 01:32:14 | |
Interesting. Yeah. Interesting. | 01:32:19 | |
That's someone else's fight and they want to go to the council. | 01:32:21 | |
Many of us have relatives in the tattooing business, and it seems rather odd that other people can do all kinds of. | 01:32:25 | |
Things on bodies, including your neighbors, apparently, and not be in violation of medical, dental and optical. And then so do we | 01:32:33 | |
define laboratory, medical, dental and optical. | 01:32:39 | |
And it's only laboratory, not actual. So if you. | 01:32:46 | |
Do the teeth whitening if you put them in the chair and do Botox that that permitted home use or not. | 01:32:50 | |
I'd have to look at our allowed uses. I don't. I don't think dental is allowed. | 01:33:00 | |
I don't think so either. Teeth. Lightning going on, you need to have it listed. | 01:33:05 | |
Where did you say these were defined more? | 01:33:14 | |
Two locations, you guys. It's like where it's at right now. | 01:33:21 | |
And permanent eyebrows and so. | 01:33:27 | |
My neighbor is now training people. She has people come in to start their own. | 01:33:31 | |
Keith Whitening It's Time to turn Her in, Ginger. | 01:33:36 | |
Turn her into code enforcement. So and she she has appointments that she'll have, you know, maybe 3. | 01:33:41 | |
People come a day to start their own teeth whitening and and spray tan business that she trains them and she gives them a kit. | 01:33:50 | |
Yeah, it sounds like it. Yeah, you need to cut code enforcement. It's other young moms. It's other, you know, people that want to | 01:33:58 | |
be home that are doing it. I'm telling you it's a big business in holiday. | 01:34:05 | |
So Ginger lives on a street where a lady's instead of doing Tupperware, she's setting up network marketing spray tan and teeth | 01:34:13 | |
whitening. | 01:34:18 | |
Right. OK, well, that's cool. Maybe she'll take off like Lulu, whatever her name is. | 01:34:23 | |
Did you have anything else on your list? Yeah, two. Quick, Warren. I really read this stuff. That's good. Good. Having mostly | 01:34:30 | |
written one for another city, it's kind of like, OK, I had to go back and look and see what we did and the city where it did it. | 01:34:36 | |
We do not require business licenses. We just require that you comply with these rules. | 01:34:42 | |
We do not issue both business license. We decided not. | 01:34:49 | |
To fight off. | 01:34:52 | |
We have plenty of health going around in the city. | 01:34:54 | |
And then I didn't want to make a pitch and it falls up kind of on your comment. But the more I've thought about this, the the less | 01:34:57 | |
I like the idea that homework should operate till 10:00 at night. | 01:35:03 | |
I'd like to cut that off at. | 01:35:10 | |
And that. | 01:35:13 | |
These are mocks. | 01:35:15 | |
And we don't, most businesses are closed by 10:00 and and I know we, we say has something to do with the noise ordinance or | 01:35:16 | |
something, but the noise ordinance is its own ordinance for other reasons. | 01:35:21 | |
And that and and it seems to me that consistent with the idea of this being a hallmark and a secondary thing. | 01:35:27 | |
Why are they operating at 10:00 at night? And then literally they're OK if they walk out the door at 9:59 and you know, they're | 01:35:35 | |
still getting in their cars and all that happened. I think this is a good opportunity. | 01:35:41 | |
Just trim that down a little. | 01:35:47 | |
I don't you know. I know evening hours are important for some kinds of businesses, but I think for the neighbors sake, 9:00 would | 01:35:49 | |
be much more reasonable than 10:00. | 01:35:55 | |
Yeah, we could. I mean, we can do that as 9:00 PM. | 01:36:05 | |
Anytime it could change if there's any issues, but starting at 9:00 PM and I think it's reasonable. | 01:36:09 | |
I mean, especially when we get into all of this, kids playing and all that, they're not. They're supposed to be home in bed. | 01:36:15 | |
Right before 10:00. There's some kind of curfew at night. Don't be judging us when you put our kids. | 01:36:22 | |
And then I thank you for listening to all this and. | 01:36:31 | |
Has to do with the. | 01:36:35 | |
H. | 01:36:38 | |
We find it here and tell you what line it is. | 01:36:40 | |
Line 95, Yeah, 95, the very end of that. So line 100 says operation should not violate noise ordinance. | 01:36:46 | |
As ordinances detailed in the City of Holiday, None of that. | 01:36:56 | |
That's either duplicates if of some other ordinance or should say shall I think. | 01:37:03 | |
Otherwise, it isn't really enforceable. | 01:37:09 | |
I mean, and remove the should means it's encouraged. Yeah, yeah, I think you could. | 01:37:14 | |
Revoke a license for continuous violations and ultimately, but I think it has to be a shell in order to do that. | 01:37:20 | |
And I think it needs its own section personally, because it's A tag on to an unrelated topic about tools and stuff like that. | 01:37:28 | |
Anyway. | 01:37:38 | |
Good suggestion. | 01:37:41 | |
And I don't want this to sound like I've been really negative, but I love this ordinance. | 01:37:45 | |
The only one thing I don't like about it is allowing a city employee to authorize parking on a public street. I don't think that's | 01:37:53 | |
a good practice, but in spite of that, I think it's so much better than what we have. | 01:37:59 | |
Not only for our time, but just getting more compliance. I think this can make it easier to get compliance. | 01:38:06 | |
And a year from now, we'll fix whatever comes up. | 01:38:12 | |
And I intend on voting for it. I just think it's a. | 01:38:16 | |
A great thing to get us there and excellent and we want to get those changes in. | 01:38:23 | |
And then, Commissioner Barrett, you've been fairly quiet through the evening on this discussion. Did you have any taking it all | 01:38:29 | |
in? I appreciate the suggested changes. Obviously we would like to see things as specific as possible so that there's not this | 01:38:35 | |
ambiguity. | 01:38:40 | |
I'm nervous about the parking still. | 01:38:47 | |
I guess we'll just have to figure it out as we go. | 01:38:50 | |
So to your. | 01:38:54 | |
Do we need? | 01:38:56 | |
Multiple times. | 01:38:59 | |
If there's a noise ordinance are for the city, do we have to? | 01:39:00 | |
That they can't violate that. | 01:39:04 | |
I think that's more of convenience for whoever's for. | 01:39:07 | |
Individual that's getting a home based occupant, just a reminder right that it's all there. | 01:39:11 | |
Just to go back to the comments earlier, so OK. | 01:39:18 | |
It doesn't need to be there. | 01:39:23 | |
Excellent. | 01:39:28 | |
And then Commissioner Prince suggest. | 01:39:29 | |
Yeah, I I wonder in light of our earlier discussion, if we want to include one of those help me savings. | 01:39:31 | |
Clauses in. | 01:39:40 | |
If it's not listed. | 01:39:43 | |
Right, it was not listed. It's not allowed. | 01:39:44 | |
That could be a. | 01:39:47 | |
Really a decision? | 01:39:51 | |
What you can do is just ask council to consider a savings clause that says something along the lines of. | 01:39:53 | |
If. | 01:40:03 | |
In this list it is otherwise. | 01:40:04 | |
Or could you, could you even do something like if it's not in this list, it has to come before the Planning Commission, so that at | 01:40:07 | |
least is under discussion, right? | 01:40:11 | |
Instead of saying yes or no before we even know what it is. And then there's public comment that way too. And I'm sure there are | 01:40:15 | |
things we haven't considered. So certainly why bar them? So that could be. | 01:40:20 | |
I mean it might fall under this. | 01:40:26 | |
We're done. So be home occupations that do not comply with the standards of this section shall apply for conditional use permit. I | 01:40:29 | |
see. So if it's not in the list, we could add in. | 01:40:34 | |
Or somewhat. | 01:40:41 | |
Because then then it has eyes on it and then a decision to be made instead of either. | 01:40:43 | |
Saying no or yes. | 01:40:48 | |
You could put like do not does not comply or falls outside the scope of this. | 01:40:49 | |
Ordinance or something to that effect. I don't want to overly muddy the water here. I think this says what you needed to say. And | 01:40:55 | |
OK, so clear enough, OK. | 01:40:59 | |
Brad feels good about taking it to court. I feel good about it. You feel good about it, Brad. | 01:41:05 | |
All right. We've got the nod of approval. I think that we when I was discussing this with John too, it was that we don't, we don't | 01:41:11 | |
necessarily need a savings clause because the ordinance is already set up in our allowed uses of if it's not. | 01:41:18 | |
Expressly said as permitted, then it's just not permitted. | 01:41:26 | |
OK, that's actually opposite what Lemma says. If it's not expressly prohibited, it is allowed. | 01:41:31 | |
So if we don't have it, so. | 01:41:39 | |
Then I can do it. The tie goes to the if there's. | 01:41:42 | |
If there's a question. | 01:41:45 | |
If there's nothing in the ordinance that says you can't do it. | 01:41:47 | |
Then became, so we have. | 01:41:50 | |
For example, no car washes or no tattoos. | 01:41:52 | |
But I don't know if tattoos are expressly prohibited. | 01:41:56 | |
If they're so, it's not necessarily so. Car washes. Car washes are not in our land use table at all. So since they're not in our | 01:42:01 | |
land use table. | 01:42:06 | |
Then. | 01:42:11 | |
Permitted. | 01:42:14 | |
So you're saying that, like with a car wash, something or some other use is not in the land house? | 01:42:17 | |
They're not in the land use table, but you probably have something that says the only permitted uses are. | 01:42:25 | |
I think so. | 01:42:31 | |
Like card detailing for example, Does that fall into this list? | 01:42:33 | |
Or could I have 10 cars a day come get detailed at my house? | 01:42:38 | |
You can go to their house if I'm mobile, sure, but what if I want him to come to me because I'm lazy and they're OK with it? | 01:42:44 | |
We have that in my neighborhood, too. | 01:42:51 | |
Ginger's got it all. Everything's going down. What strip mall do you live on again? | 01:42:55 | |
Can I ask a question that I don't know, I was just poking around it just a little bit. | 01:43:06 | |
I don't know how to call code enforcement and I'm kind of. | 01:43:10 | |
This camp where it would have to be so bad before I felt like I was calling code enforcement, which is feels to me like the cops | 01:43:15 | |
on my part is because. | 01:43:19 | |
Typically. | 01:43:25 | |
Most cities will say. | 01:43:27 | |
If you want and it's because. | 01:43:29 | |
Especially reactionaries to these reactionary. | 01:43:33 | |
They were parking facility written. | 01:43:36 | |
Those are also. | 01:43:39 | |
Requestable and so then your neighbor knows. | 01:43:43 | |
Who color code? | 01:43:46 | |
So I'm just wondering, first of all, does it feel like? | 01:43:49 | |
Here's the holiday police page. Is that where I report my like? I just. I'm wondering if if we're making it easy for people to | 01:43:55 | |
have home based businesses. | 01:43:59 | |
And there's less public. | 01:44:04 | |
Is there a way to make it so public can have input without coming to this level where you're filling out a police what feels like | 01:44:07 | |
a police report on your neighbor? I would almost never do that, but I might do something that's like. | 01:44:13 | |
Hey I have a question about this. | 01:44:18 | |
Where the links I didn't even know that map of. | 01:44:20 | |
You know, the businesses like some sort of soft entry so that neighbors can ask questions, have a more genial conversation instead | 01:44:23 | |
of doing what feels like calling the police. I would never do that unless something really bad were happening. But if you're in a | 01:44:30 | |
neighborhood where there's a medium level problem and it's really annoying, it's a little bit unsafe. | 01:44:36 | |
Does this make sense? Like I feel like there needs to be some lower threshold of. | 01:44:44 | |
Of not even complaining but figuring out what's going on, initiating a conversation about mitigation. | 01:44:50 | |
Without having it be so feel so drastic. | 01:44:57 | |
So all of our code enforcement right now is done or most people we direct to this citizen request on the main page. That could be | 01:45:01 | |
clearer of code enforcement citizen engagement. There is a code enforcement department. | 01:45:08 | |
What does it look like here? Can you show it? | 01:45:17 | |
Because we are working on doing website redesign, so and we do want to have this kind of information available, we don't want | 01:45:21 | |
people necessarily calling staff if they can. | 01:45:27 | |
Find it on the website easily and. | 01:45:33 | |
Go through that route. So then what did they do? Go down to code enforcement on the left? | 01:45:37 | |
Yep. Do you reporting violation though feels very violent to me. | 01:45:41 | |
I would say because you have to disclose, report a concern, yeah, you have to give all your information. | 01:45:46 | |
Right. And that could be clear of it's not. | 01:45:52 | |
It's not available. | 01:45:57 | |
Filter. | 01:46:01 | |
Right. Access a filter. It's got to be egregious if I'm going to want to put my name to it. | 01:46:04 | |
Is, then if my neighbor finds out I don't want to be. | 01:46:09 | |
It's also a. | 01:46:14 | |
It is. We could just e-mail the code enforcement officer. It's got his e-mail there. Just send him an e-mail. And just like, hey, | 01:46:15 | |
this guy at this house is doing this. I just, you know, letting you know, do what you want with it. But are they then going to | 01:46:20 | |
tell you to fill out this? | 01:46:24 | |
Likely, so when people call, I say. | 01:46:29 | |
Yeah, I can enter in the information. | 01:46:34 | |
But if you want to be able to do this in the future, just fill it out. All of your information is confidential. It just goes to | 01:46:36 | |
the code enforcement officer. We're not telling neighbors who are. We're not interested in creating conflict. I guess you can | 01:46:42 | |
grammar request it like that. | 01:46:47 | |
What you get today once you go to Grandma. Records, Access management. Grandma. | 01:46:54 | |
You can. | 01:47:00 | |
At that point, the city has to determine. | 01:47:03 | |
Well, this is an unlawful or unreasonable invasion privacy. And that's your argument. | 01:47:05 | |
So is is your sense, I guess you're seeing these complaints. I don't know what kind of complaints is your sense that? | 01:47:11 | |
I guess we wouldn't know because you're seeing the complaints that do come through. | 01:47:17 | |
What percentage of those are reasonable versus not reasonable? And then do we have any sense whatsoever of like? | 01:47:21 | |
People that would make a complaint but aren't right. How many gingers there are. Yeah, you know, nice, nice neighbors who don't | 01:47:28 | |
want to say anything. And that's when I have people who call, I get. | 01:47:34 | |
Phone calls from people sometimes that are very Passover, right? They're like, I don't, I don't want to be that person. Like, no, | 01:47:40 | |
we want to know if there's an issue. We want to know about it. We want to make sure that people are being compliant. | 01:47:47 | |
People come in all the time when their neighbors building something, they're like, it seems like they're building really close. So | 01:47:54 | |
then we just have a conversation. | 01:47:58 | |
You know, we go through the site plan review process. Here's the setbacks. I can tell you if they have a building permit, I can | 01:48:02 | |
explain what our review process is. So a lot of it is some education with people, but you know. | 01:48:09 | |
Also encouraging people to come to us if there is an issue because we want to be able to. | 01:48:15 | |
Address issues. | 01:48:22 | |
And that kind of an environment, that's what we have in the planning office has come in, let us know we want to take care of an | 01:48:24 | |
issue if it is an issue, our code enforcement officers. | 01:48:29 | |
Conversational he's. | 01:48:35 | |
When he. | 01:48:37 | |
Out and enforces code. He's. | 01:48:39 | |
He's not confrontational with people, he says. Hey, you know, here's the issue. | 01:48:43 | |
You want to get it taken care of? | 01:48:47 | |
He rarely issues any fines. It's just. | 01:48:50 | |
Let's get this taken care of. | 01:48:54 | |
But nobody wants to be that person. | 01:48:56 | |
Well, no, but they they can. I got another. I got a neighbor who is that person, and there are a lot of people who are that | 01:48:58 | |
people. But but just by calling, you're not being that person. You're saying, hey, this is an issue that's affecting the | 01:49:04 | |
community, You should be aware of it. | 01:49:09 | |
Because it's for. | 01:49:15 | |
Greater good complaining is not inherently a bad thing. | 01:49:17 | |
I guess, I guess what it comes down to from me. | 01:49:21 | |
How do? | 01:49:26 | |
And it's not just. It's only because we know about Ginger's situation. But how do we get to the bottom? | 01:49:28 | |
Ginger situation. | 01:49:35 | |
The neighbors have to call. That's I mean, well and I think, I think it goes beyond that though I think it also goes we as a city, | 01:49:37 | |
we need to work with our business licensing department too and educating people. | 01:49:45 | |
And making sure that the people that are starting businesses that they. | 01:49:52 | |
The resources to know what's permitted. What's not permitted, how to? | 01:49:57 | |
Legally, start a business. | 01:50:04 | |
And how to be successful at it and how if you choose to do it outside of? | 01:50:07 | |
You know the. | 01:50:13 | |
Business owner, whatever. If you choose to do it in your home, how to go about it? It sounds like she's very successful. Thank you | 01:50:15 | |
very much. Yeah. | 01:50:19 | |
And you know, she's training people. | 01:50:24 | |
And unfortunately, I can guarantee that the training that she's giving him isn't You need to get properly licensed within the city | 01:50:27 | |
that you're living in, and you need to go. | 01:50:32 | |
Yeah, I mean, it's just so. | 01:50:39 | |
Maybe we need to do a better job at educating and helping new business owners. | 01:50:43 | |
Well, what it comes down to, You are on the Planning Commission. You could just knock on her door and say, hey, I just wanted to | 01:50:47 | |
let you know, like, I think what you're doing is great. But we just spent two hours tonight talking about what I'm going to do. | 01:50:52 | |
And I'm also going to tell her that it's changing and that there's going to be, like, if you have another business within 1/4 of a | 01:50:57 | |
mile that you're going to be restricted. So I'm going to tell her to hurry up. | 01:51:02 | |
Hurry up and get in there and get it done. I don't think you want to do that. | 01:51:08 | |
Well, I don't know. You know what I'm saying? It comes to this where you want people to. I think you can. You might want to knock | 01:51:13 | |
on our door as a neighbor, but you don't want to knock on her door as a member of the Planning Commission. Yeah. | 01:51:18 | |
That implies some authority to do something. | 01:51:24 | |
Catch more flies with honey. Gingers got the right approach to the complaint and share the responsibility, so they can't just say, | 01:51:29 | |
well, you're the only one that complaints about it. Well, in the bottom line, it doesn't affect my life that it's not like it's my | 01:51:36 | |
life. It's horrible right now because there's businesses going on. | 01:51:42 | |
It's definitely there. There's an impact on the neighborhood and there's lots going on. I noticed it and there's a lot going on | 01:51:49 | |
and. | 01:51:53 | |
You just get enough of that. | 01:51:59 | |
Over and over again. And it's kind of concerning, you know, It makes me wonder, OK, if this is just my little St. | 01:52:01 | |
What else is happening? | 01:52:09 | |
And I think that's where some kind of communication with code enforcement, if you can't civilly as a neighbor resolve the impact | 01:52:11 | |
that it's having on your neighborhood gets where it boils down to unfortunately. Like you know you either be able to walk up to | 01:52:18 | |
your neighbor and handle it and if you can't that's what Officer Warren Doloff gets paid to run around holiday and and tactfully | 01:52:24 | |
address for everyone to help bring compliance to those non compliance situations. | 01:52:31 | |
I do think it should be. It should start before compliance though. It should start when they're getting their business license. | 01:52:37 | |
They they should have an opportunity to be compliant. | 01:52:42 | |
Meaning that they should understand what the requirements are and go about it the right way. And you know, going back to if we can | 01:52:48 | |
make it easy enough for them that they're like, OK, I'm not gonna lie on the application, I can be honest and still. | 01:52:54 | |
You know, operate legally. That's going to make a big difference too, right? And I think that's. | 01:53:02 | |
Exactly the point. | 01:53:08 | |
If it's a difficult process, you're going to have people who even with all of the education, you have a business license official | 01:53:11 | |
that's saying here's what you need to do. You can't have clients come to your house. They're going to find some way around it if | 01:53:18 | |
it means that they don't have to go through this process of a Planning Commission and public hearing. | 01:53:25 | |
So with the cello teacher, when she came in and we're like, you have to have a conditional use permit, You have to have a parking, | 01:53:33 | |
You know, you have to show your parking. You have to show your hours of operation. You have to have a public hearing. Like she was | 01:53:40 | |
almost in tears over that process and you saw that when she came in as well. You know, this is this huge process and now you have | 01:53:47 | |
to do all this. I'm just trying to teach cello lessons. So how do we make that process easier? | 01:53:54 | |
Which brings us back to what we've been discussing now, and unless anyone has any other questions on it, I'm wondering if are we | 01:54:03 | |
at this point comfortable enough that we can maybe make a motion with the suggested changes? This is Commissioner Prince. I'm | 01:54:08 | |
prepared to make a motion this evening. | 01:54:12 | |
Yes. I motion to forward a recommendation to the City Council to approve the application to amend Holiday City code 13.100 and | 01:54:19 | |
13.76 point 760 of the City of Holiday Land Use Code to allow for home occupations to be permitted with standards approved by | 01:54:27 | |
staff, based upon the following findings. | 01:54:34 | |
Compliance with the purpose of the Land Development Code by promoting and facilitating the orderly growth and development within | 01:54:42 | |
the City of Holiday. | 01:54:46 | |
Compliance with the goals and properties or policies of the General Plan by establishing appropriate development standards for all | 01:54:50 | |
uses and zoning categories within the City of Holiday. | 01:54:55 | |
And the additions that we specifically discussed in this meeting. | 01:55:01 | |
Particularly Commissioner Cunningham's. | 01:55:07 | |
We have a motion. Do we have a second? | 01:55:11 | |
All right, we have a second from Commissioner Cunningham and we will go ahead and call for a vote. Then I will start down here, | 01:55:14 | |
Commissioner Barrett, Commissioner gone, Commissioner Prince, Commissioner, Commissioner Cunningham and Commissioner and | 01:55:21 | |
Commissioner Roach votes aye and it passes unanimously. | 01:55:27 | |
Great discussion and appreciate everyone's input on this and hopefully this will take care of a whole lot of work on our future | 01:55:34 | |
calendar once it's all finalized and approved. And with that, I think that brings us to where we can close our meeting and call it | 01:55:41 | |

Are we starting with training? | 00:00:01 | |
Oh, OK, I thought we put it after, but. | 00:00:04 | |
That. | 00:00:07 | |
Yeah. | 00:00:09 | |
Well, you're already up. Unless anyone's opposed, I'm fine with getting the training out of the way first, unless anybody. | 00:00:16 | |
Got concerns with that. Do we need to call the order meeting to order? Can we just jump right into training first? | 00:00:23 | |
Right. OK. Well, then it is 6:01 PM. | 00:00:30 | |
On January. | 00:00:36 | |
9th Does that sound right? | 00:00:38 | |
I only looked at the date 12 times today. Yeah, January 9th, 2024 on this holiday. City Planning Commission. We have all members | 00:00:41 | |
in attendance. | 00:00:45 | |
Along with City staff Kerry Mash and Brad Christopher, some legal counsel who is going to start us off today with training. | 00:00:50 | |
Gary, let's jump to. | 00:00:59 | |
So we're going to go over general powers and duties. I have at least one hour of that every year. If we can jump in, it doesn't | 00:01:10 | |
have to limit to that, but we're going to call this our one hour of general powers to. | 00:01:15 | |
Administrative legisl. | 00:01:23 | |
So. | 00:01:27 | |
I think it's advancing, but the numbers. | 00:01:31 | |
So the next one. | 00:01:35 | |
Oh, I see. | 00:01:40 | |
All the bullets, there we go. | 00:01:42 | |
So Atlanta's decision you want to make? | 00:01:44 | |
You said the 2nd. | 00:01:51 | |
You just put the cursor in the middle of those two screens and slide that bar over to the right. So. | 00:02:01 | |
Your next slide is a much smaller preview. | 00:02:09 | |
It was there in the. | 00:02:13 | |
So a land use decision is means legislative decision enacted by ordinance. | 00:02:19 | |
Resolution, specification, fee or rule that governs the use for development. The plan. | 00:02:25 | |
Includes the adoption of the minimum zoning. | 00:02:30 | |
Code does not include. | 00:02:34 | |
Decision Legislative body acting as the land use authority. | 00:02:36 | |
Decisions expressing resolution. | 00:02:40 | |
Or a temporary revision. | 00:02:43 | |
This is usually City Council does land use decisions. | 00:02:46 | |
Thank you. | 00:02:54 | |
Decision is what you guys usually do. | 00:03:00 | |
Right. | 00:03:03 | |
There you go. An administrative decision is typically what you guys handle based. Don't be legislated because you're not. | 00:03:07 | |
Lawmaking body for a decision making. | 00:03:14 | |
And. | 00:03:17 | |
Basically an authority that Utah allows for city council's to grant. | 00:03:17 | |
Do the duties that they. | 00:03:23 | |
So typically, language decision is a decision on a land use permit. | 00:03:26 | |
Use application or potentially. | 00:03:30 | |
The other type of land use, so there's three different. | 00:03:44 | |
So there's land use regulations, there's land use decisions, and then there's land use appeals. | 00:03:48 | |
Bills can go before hearing officer. | 00:03:52 | |
They can go before. | 00:03:57 | |
Adjustment. | 00:04:01 | |
Volunteers. | 00:04:05 | |
Much as yourselves. | 00:04:06 | |
To hear appeals of language decisions. | 00:04:08 | |
One of the reasons that a lot of cities that move away from. | 00:04:14 | |
Is they are typically very. | 00:04:18 | |
Not very objective. They make decisions based on. | 00:04:23 | |
How they feel and if they know the person. | 00:04:27 | |
So they've got to have a little more structure. | 00:04:33 | |
Most cities, especially larger cities, they're going to have a little more structure and have a hearing officer. | 00:04:37 | |
Usually. | 00:04:41 | |
One side note on that. | 00:04:51 | |
Those are a lot less likely to be. | 00:04:54 | |
And although the expense of preparing for them is higher. | 00:04:58 | |
The cost overall is lower. | 00:05:02 | |
Oftentimes when you get a subjective decision from a board. | 00:05:05 | |
So, OK, we're not going to get into all the appeal standards. | 00:05:21 | |
Land Use and Development Management Act. That's. I don't know if it's Title 10, Chapter 9. | 00:05:31 | |
Regularly. | 00:05:48 | |
A lot of those, especially in the. | 00:05:50 | |
Decade. There's been a lot. | 00:05:54 | |
That's been a lot. | 00:06:02 | |
Special interests that are heavily involved in. | 00:06:03 | |
And they've been successful. | 00:06:10 | |
So lagma is. | 00:06:16 | |
It grants authority to say May about its own land use standards, so long as they're consistent with federal and state law. | 00:06:18 | |
Mandates the creation of Planning Commission. | 00:06:24 | |
And the establishment of land use and. | 00:06:28 | |
Also requires and it depends on the population, but there. | 00:06:32 | |
As the city grows in population. | 00:06:40 | |
The more. | 00:06:43 | |
Animal deployments in general. | 00:06:46 | |
Adoption, general planning process, considering decision applications has to be laid out so the cities can follow. | 00:06:54 | |
Property owners. | 00:07:01 | |
OK. Next slide on general themes, so Blood money in general. | 00:07:04 | |
Require cities to respect private property rights. Cities are allowed to regulate private property. | 00:07:09 | |
Once written and established. | 00:07:16 | |
Courts. | 00:07:23 | |
Heavy-handed when it comes to cities and following. | 00:07:25 | |
I'd like to just ask real quick how. | 00:07:32 | |
Oversight is there from city versus state when it comes to property, right? Is it about? | 00:07:35 | |
5050 or new cities have way more. | 00:07:40 | |
Things they tack on to private property rights that the state does. | 00:07:43 | |
Well, so the. | 00:07:47 | |
The state is the sovereign and then. | 00:07:50 | |
Allow counties to do some of that so the state doesn't get into land use decisions. | 00:07:53 | |
Very often except. | 00:07:58 | |
Well, they give a little bit of land use authority to school districts. | 00:08:01 | |
Basically, you can come in in the school district. | 00:08:05 | |
School district wants to buy property and put up a. | 00:08:07 | |
So because they're also a political subdivision, a special subdivision. | 00:08:16 | |
Of the state separate, they're not governed by. | 00:08:20 | |
It can be like Murray, for example. They used to be close, more closely related. | 00:08:24 | |
They are. | 00:08:30 | |
But then the count is unincorporated. Property counting would be the land use authority there, but cities are the land use | 00:08:35 | |
authority. | 00:08:38 | |
So what I think maybe your question is. | 00:08:45 | |
Is the state historically cities have had. | 00:08:50 | |
Basically complete authority over anything within their borders. | 00:08:54 | |
You know, subject to. | 00:08:57 | |
Federal law can't. | 00:08:59 | |
And, you know, treat people differently. | 00:09:00 | |
But. | 00:09:08 | |
We're all getting the whatever work. | 00:09:12 | |
It's going to snow, OK? | 00:09:19 | |
State grants counties and cities the authority to do. | 00:09:25 | |
To regulate and. | 00:09:29 | |
In the last four or five years, maybe. | 00:09:31 | |
A lot of lobbying efforts have gone into. | 00:09:37 | |
Those rabbits. | 00:09:44 | |
Housing product. | 00:09:47 | |
Younger, growing. | 00:09:51 | |
Less money. | 00:09:56 | |
You know, a generation that can afford, you know? | 00:10:01 | |
Half $1,000,000 house. | 00:10:04 | |
Ten years ago, Half million dollars. | 00:10:07 | |
Would buy you a nice place and. | 00:10:10 | |
Do they have a? | 00:10:14 | |
So traditionally, cities are like 9095% deciding what's going on. Just stay oversight and county oversight. | 00:10:20 | |
You're the land authority. You guys can regulate how you want, and your council and your elected officials can decide that and set | 00:10:29 | |
policy limits. And here's what you do. That's your job. We're not giving policy. | 00:10:33 | |
There's a lot more push. | 00:10:38 | |
Special interests and builders, Developers that want. | 00:10:43 | |
Limit and make it make it more uniform across cities. | 00:10:46 | |
They want to have the process and holiday be the same as in Magna would be the same as in. | 00:10:50 | |
Errors Ability to St. Syracuse IN Farmington so that they don't have to. | 00:10:55 | |
You know, pay somebody. | 00:11:00 | |
Understand what the compatible process is. | 00:11:03 | |
They're not that different. There's slight nuances, but there's not. | 00:11:06 | |
They're not TER. | 00:11:10 | |
Some some have preliminary concept preliminary. | 00:11:12 | |
Final flight approval somehow just. | 00:11:16 | |
Concept and. | 00:11:19 | |
But it's not. They're not that different. There's some minor differences. | 00:11:23 | |
If there's a land use ordinance, that's written poorly or written in a way that leaves open multiple interpretations. | 00:11:34 | |
The applicant gets their interpretation. | 00:11:44 | |
So if there's more than one way to interpret it. | 00:11:48 | |
The tie will go to the applicant. | 00:11:52 | |
One of the other things that. | 00:11:55 | |
That we've seen is. | 00:11:58 | |
You know, oftentimes application and this is with any. | 00:12:02 | |
And it will. | 00:12:06 | |
Relatively newer than the code. | 00:12:07 | |
Prohibited specifically. | 00:12:09 | |
Therefore it's per. | 00:12:11 | |
So. | 00:12:14 | |
Wait a minute. You could do this. This is ridiculous. Well, it's not. You didn't regulate. | 00:12:18 | |
They can do it. | 00:12:27 | |
So that does create some problems, yeah. Can I ask a question about that? Because it feels like a lot of times the. | 00:12:30 | |
The thing in contention. | 00:12:38 | |
Like the? | 00:12:41 | |
We're often dealing with is what it means to have like an impact, like the home based business stuff. | 00:12:43 | |
To have an impact above normal residential. | 00:12:49 | |
And it feels like right. And so is that, I mean is that this thing where if somebody says. | 00:12:53 | |
I invite 20 people to my house on a weekend party. | 00:12:59 | |
That's my residential use. | 00:13:02 | |
My business use is much less. I mean, at what point are they saying this is how I'm interpreting it? And we say, oh, OK, it's your | 00:13:04 | |
interpretation because that's great. That one's a little more nuanced because. | 00:13:10 | |
You can have. I mean, there's kind of a community standard, right? | 00:13:17 | |
Engineer, City Engineer. Standpoint. | 00:13:24 | |
A typical residential home single family will generate about 6:00. | 00:13:26 | |
Vehicle trips in and out. | 00:13:31 | |
That's A and it would be the average. | 00:13:34 | |
Parents and future was the average family 3.4 people or something like that. | 00:13:39 | |
More than the 2.1 national. | 00:13:47 | |
And it's going down. | 00:13:50 | |
3.4 if I remember it, but that might be three or four years old, but my reflection is about 3.4 and so that house will generate. | 00:13:53 | |
About 6 strips per day if. | 00:14:01 | |
For those, you know, two of them were teenagers or close to adults, are driving 4 drivers, you're going to have more than six | 00:14:04 | |
trips a day. | 00:14:07 | |
But again, that's for a short period of time. | 00:14:11 | |
Lifespan for. | 00:14:14 | |
Relatively speaking and. | 00:14:16 | |
Those teenagers become adult. | 00:14:20 | |
Two person household for a time. | 00:14:27 | |
So when you get into questions of what kind of impact is this particular issue have or this particular application have? | 00:14:30 | |
Or on a neighborhood. | 00:14:38 | |
We go into that analysis when we have a conditional use, right? So if it's a permitted use. | 00:14:41 | |
The City Council's already decided that that's fine. Go ahead and have that. | 00:14:46 | |
Used in that. | 00:14:50 | |
But when it's a conditional use permit, we're allowed. | 00:14:53 | |
Conditional uses the reasonable conditions. | 00:15:06 | |
Have to be related to the impact it's having on the neighborhood. | 00:15:10 | |
Right. | 00:15:15 | |
The for example the. | 00:15:16 | |
Yes, that's having an impact on. | 00:15:24 | |
What is it typically, the impact? Well, it's people. | 00:15:27 | |
Potentially in front of somebody else's house. | 00:15:30 | |
It's on public. | 00:15:33 | |
That is really. | 00:15:35 | |
If they're parking at the edge of that corner. | 00:15:38 | |
We talked about this. | 00:15:41 | |
But if they're parked at the corner, that's a safety issue, right? | 00:15:43 | |
So we need to make sure. | 00:15:47 | |
Is in clearview is when you approach an intersection you have to be able to see there's sight lines. | 00:15:49 | |
Allow you to be able to safely get into that intersection, see if cars are coming and not having that, that's what. | 00:15:55 | |
Where we have those. | 00:16:02 | |
The requirement can't put a fence. | 00:16:04 | |
It's. | 00:16:07 | |
So that's one of the issues that we have to make sure that we're not creating a condition that creates a safety issue and so we | 00:16:14 | |
need to mitigate it mostly to mitigate it. | 00:16:18 | |
Is that was required on the street or sorry off street parking? | 00:16:22 | |
So are we basically saying the policy concern is, are we saying, well, some homes are allowed to have? | 00:16:31 | |
Businesses, but not that. | 00:16:37 | |
Because of. | 00:16:39 | |
Right, right. | 00:16:42 | |
So that's basic. So are we getting into that level of detail? We typically don't. | 00:16:44 | |
And we you saw last week, we saw the. | 00:16:50 | |
This week, that's what we're doing today, is the parking regulations. | 00:16:54 | |
How? | 00:16:58 | |
One of the things is this is a public St. | 00:17:00 | |
So, contrary to most people's beliefs in public, St. in front of their house does not belong to them. | 00:17:04 | |
It just doesn't. It is a public right of way, and the public has a right to use it. | 00:17:11 | |
And. | 00:17:18 | |
In most jurisdictions, that includes parking on the street. | 00:17:20 | |
A lot of. | 00:17:25 | |
Kind of aesthetic concerns. | 00:17:27 | |
With parking in front of my house, we also know that that creates. | 00:17:30 | |
Neighborhood disputes when you're parking so many parks in front of. | 00:17:35 | |
Your house all the time. | 00:17:39 | |
So that's something to take into account, but. | 00:17:42 | |
The conditions that you're putting on need to be reasonable in a conditional use permit. | 00:17:46 | |
It's better to say permitted with conditions than it is to say conditional. | 00:17:52 | |
Because if the council has listed a table of uses that are conditional use. | 00:17:57 | |
That means they're. | 00:18:03 | |
So long as the impact that they. | 00:18:05 | |
Can be. | 00:18:08 | |
With conditions. | 00:18:10 | |
And so the tools that you have at your disposal of disposal. | 00:18:11 | |
And we have Austria arguments. | 00:18:15 | |
That's one of the other ones is hours of operation. It mitigates. | 00:18:19 | |
The number of people that are. | 00:18:23 | |
One of the things that we've seen is a huge increase since COVID and people looking for home a lot more. | 00:18:25 | |
Code enforcement complaints have gone up. | 00:18:33 | |
Across the board, almost every. | 00:18:36 | |
Because people are home and they see what's happening. | 00:18:38 | |
And they didn't use. It bothers them now. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get into the specifics, but OK, So what you're saying here | 00:18:41 | |
is. | 00:18:45 | |
There's a community standard and so if applicants interpretation is way left, you know sort of left field of the community | 00:18:51 | |
standard that. | 00:18:55 | |
The lid. | 00:19:00 | |
OK. | 00:19:04 | |
Amended all the time, both in the state and. | 00:19:07 | |
And then they said. | 00:19:20 | |
Cascade. | 00:19:23 | |
Well then, councils can amend a lot at any point if it's a land use regulation. | 00:19:27 | |
That has to be reviewed by. | 00:19:32 | |
Before the Council. | 00:19:36 | |
Doesn't the city also have to provide means by which they can mitigate mean? | 00:19:39 | |
If off street parking or however the parking is going to be interpreted these days, the city has to provide a way for the | 00:19:45 | |
applicant. | 00:19:49 | |
To be able to mitigate. | 00:19:53 | |
So, well, so that one, right? | 00:19:56 | |
The one that we've been working with is really hard with the way it's currently written. | 00:20:01 | |
Which is one of the reasons. So do we have to provide a way to mitigate GET? The Council has set policy forces if these uses are | 00:20:05 | |
permitted with conditions. | 00:20:09 | |
They require relation of these permits. That's a. | 00:20:13 | |
Then I'm trying to think of. | 00:20:16 | |
Of a situation where the answer is. | 00:20:21 | |
I can't think of 1. | 00:20:24 | |
Let's say restaurant outside. You know they're going to do dining on the sidewalk or something. | 00:20:25 | |
And there's additional parking required because. | 00:20:31 | |
The parking requirement typically is based on the interior space. So now you've increased the size of your business and that | 00:20:35 | |
requires your conditional use permit if you're going to do that. | 00:20:41 | |
And I don't know why I was getting these conversation and forget what I was thinking, but there has to be some way to mitigate. | 00:20:47 | |
The city. So if the city wants additional any requirement additional the city has to also provide a way by which. | 00:20:57 | |
The applicant can mitigate, it's not just an arbitrary. | 00:21:04 | |
It should not be standard, correct? Yeah, it should be, but it has to be also reasonably related to the condition. | 00:21:08 | |
And the impact that you're? | 00:21:14 | |
Right, so. | 00:21:18 | |
We don't want people coming all hours a night. | 00:21:19 | |
Yeah, additional parking is a good example of if you're going to have. | 00:21:24 | |
And maybe it's additional parking for seasonal because at this time of the year, OK. | 00:21:28 | |
OK. | 00:21:35 | |
And then you also one of the other things you have to have a wider side. | 00:21:37 | |
To safely allow the public to walk by. | 00:21:41 | |
I know there was. I don't remember there was. | 00:21:46 | |
It was. The copper kettle was. | 00:21:50 | |
And copper onion. Yeah, copper onion, copper kettle. | 00:21:55 | |
Owned by the same company, but like the copper kettle and the copper kitchen, we can't afford to go to those places. | 00:22:01 | |
I remember going through, I remember having to deal with that, their request to have. | 00:22:07 | |
A patio area in front so that. | 00:22:13 | |
Process. | 00:22:17 | |
So the Commission is fairly limited on use permits, conditional use permits. | 00:22:20 | |
The limitations are it's permitted with reasonable conditions to eliminate the impact. | 00:22:26 | |
That's gone through, that's gone through the court system. | 00:22:32 | |
In fact, it went through the court system and it used to be. | 00:22:36 | |
It used to be conditional use. | 00:22:40 | |
If we allow it, you can't just use it. It's not permitted. If we decide we want to have that, then we can conditionally. | 00:22:43 | |
Now it's that's gone through the court system. There's no subjectivity whatsoever conditional use. | 00:22:52 | |
Well, the only subjectivity. | 00:22:58 | |
You have to tie your. | 00:23:01 | |
To what it is you're trying to do. | 00:23:03 | |
I see. So if it's traffic, you're trying to mitigate it, we want to make sure there's no Clearview violation on the street so | 00:23:05 | |
people can get through. | 00:23:08 | |
Then the condition has to be OK You can't park in front of your street in front of your house because it violates the clearly | 00:23:13 | |
provisions or traffic ordinances so you can park. | 00:23:18 | |
The Neighbors house. So I'm sorry to keep this conversation. | 00:23:24 | |
What are we basing the standards for home businesses, The traffic generation, to the home business? | 00:23:28 | |
In addition to the typical traffic generation within the house. | 00:23:34 | |
So are we saying any twice as much or city staff, I think it regulates that. I don't think we regulate it that way well. I'm | 00:23:41 | |
curious just to know how you've determined how much additional parking is we're going to be required? | 00:23:48 | |
For a home business. | 00:23:55 | |
So I know most of the home businesses we limited to one employee at most. | 00:23:57 | |
Well, that's if you have an employee coming. But let's say you have 50 people coming every day to your house. That's a significant | 00:24:03 | |
change in the residential character. | 00:24:08 | |
But but that's an exaggeration. But I'm looking at how much. | 00:24:17 | |
Is the break point by. | 00:24:22 | |
We say that's too much traffic. | 00:24:25 | |
Does this make sense? And I know, I know you can't say how much. | 00:24:27 | |
I don't know the city that regulates it in a way that says OK, here's and maybe that's something that. | 00:24:33 | |
To be considered, but a typical residential loan generates. | 00:24:38 | |
Residential trips per day. Six vehicle trips per day. | 00:24:43 | |
Right, so. | 00:24:47 | |
That's 12 cars. | 00:24:49 | |
Right, one in. | 00:24:51 | |
2. | 00:24:53 | |
But if you look at daycares, daycares are allowed statewide. | 00:24:56 | |
And they're regulated by the state. You can have up to 8. | 00:25:01 | |
Kids without and if you go to 12, then there's some additional restrictions and additional. | 00:25:05 | |
Items you have to meet but. | 00:25:12 | |
A minimum of 24 trips. So we don't have a standard by saying you have to be within this margin. | 00:25:15 | |
OK, so there will be a lot of subjectivity as far as how much parking we ask for. | 00:25:23 | |
Yes or not. Ask for yes. | 00:25:28 | |
We talked about this at times. My kids go to. | 00:25:33 | |
So you're part of the trouble. | 00:25:39 | |
Make sure you're taking them back. | 00:25:42 | |
I'll tell you. | 00:25:53 | |
At this their teacher this at the end of the cul-de-sac. | 00:25:55 | |
And they have, I mean, they have a large yard, but there's multiple homes on that cul-de-sac and so they have. | 00:25:58 | |
You know, a tiny wedge of frontage and then it goes way out like that. | 00:26:04 | |
So there's like 5 homes in this circle. | 00:26:09 | |
But they all have 30 feet of frontage at most, and with it, that includes their driver. | 00:26:12 | |
You know their approach and. | 00:26:17 | |
Oftentimes there are people waiting when they back in because that's the only way they could be in front of the house and not | 00:26:20 | |
block driveways. | 00:26:23 | |
So, you know, back into the curve right there. | 00:26:27 | |
I mean, the city doesn't want to get into a safety issue either, dropping kids off. | 00:26:31 | |
So I'm just kind of trying to go through the process of how staff kind of comes to the conclusion of what we would typically need | 00:26:36 | |
to ask for. | 00:26:40 | |
Obviously it will be based on the business, right, based on the type, whether it's permitted or not. | 00:26:45 | |
And so some cities will even put kind of a savings clause. If your business does not appear in this list, then it is prohibited. | 00:26:52 | |
So we don't get into that. | 00:26:56 | |
You know, if we don't regulate it. | 00:27:01 | |
Then the applicant can do it. OK, it's kind of a catch all provision the savings clause, right? | 00:27:03 | |
Come on. Oh well, you fall into this category. Let's just so you don't forget. | 00:27:10 | |
Almost seems like it's a case by case basis. | 00:27:15 | |
You know it's where is. | 00:27:18 | |
Home You know what? What are the? | 00:27:21 | |
Lines. | 00:27:24 | |
Yeah, I mean, not everybody's on a corner, right? The majority of homes are not on corners. So those. | 00:27:26 | |
Fewer import, but if we had a business in a home based business and holiday that was on a cul-de-sac. | 00:27:32 | |
With 30 feet of frontage. | 00:27:38 | |
Including the. | 00:27:41 | |
And it was a. | 00:27:43 | |
You know. | 00:27:46 | |
That's a big impact, but part of the way that. | 00:27:48 | |
I think the legislature also. | 00:27:54 | |
You know you can't say no to their character. | 00:27:57 | |
Right. You can reasonably regulate them, but you can't say we're not going to help. | 00:28:01 | |
No, but don't we have to consider neighbors? Don't we have to consider the impact of parking and traffic and so forth? | 00:28:05 | |
You could consider it, but that doesn't mean you can say no. | 00:28:16 | |
That's that's the hard part with conditional use. How do we permit what conditions? But what conditions do we? | 00:28:20 | |
So in that particular situation, you would have to have kind of like a. | 00:28:29 | |
Kind of a graduated or. | 00:28:34 | |
You know 15. | 00:28:36 | |
Yeah, traffic though. Drop your kid off at this window and so you show up and you're only so you can't have 30 cars show at once. | 00:28:38 | |
You got to have a drop off stagger, drop off time. I mean, that's a condition. | 00:28:45 | |
Is reasonable. | 00:28:50 | |
Or or the situation. | 00:28:51 | |
And then we wait for neighbors to complain, and then we have a code enforcement issue. | 00:28:55 | |
And it's a safety issue. | 00:29:02 | |
And I think that's where your. | 00:29:04 | |
You have the ability in your code to make modifications. | 00:29:07 | |
Was switching your conditional uses to be business licenses. | 00:29:13 | |
Regulated through a business licensing and they expire every year. So if there are issues with it, there's an opportunity to say, | 00:29:17 | |
oh, we've been having these issues, let's modify the code to address these specific issues. | 00:29:25 | |
But they won't continue indefinitely. So then every year they're renewing their business license, they have to comply with the new | 00:29:33 | |
standards if we add more standards to that section of code. | 00:29:39 | |
And the change is recommended. To move it to a license to a person and not to the land is a great decision and that because | 00:29:44 | |
someone has something that was approved 20 years ago or 30 years ago. | 00:29:51 | |
Without any review and. | 00:30:00 | |
You know, well, they still have to be continually used that way, right? Yes, Right. Right. But if you have the continuous use, but | 00:30:02 | |
the burden would be on the city to show the use has changed and they had good luck, I remember. Yeah, you know, in South Jordan | 00:30:08 | |
was a farming community, okay. And there's lots of interesting uses that. | 00:30:15 | |
Kind of continued, but they EV. | 00:30:22 | |
Yeah, they evolved. | 00:30:24 | |
Yeah. So the switch to code is a somewhat more dynamic or more there's more opportunity to change the code and then bring those | 00:30:28 | |
conditional or the home occupations into compliance every year. | 00:30:35 | |
I mean, I like the whole concept in that and then a year from now. | 00:30:44 | |
Find out what we forgot to put on the prohibited list or whatever else in that. But that's OK, that's how the process works. And | 00:30:47 | |
that. And then next year it can be on the list. When their license expires and it doesn't run with land anymore, you can, at least | 00:30:53 | |
over time, keep up with what's happening. | 00:30:59 | |
They might, yeah. So they would have to meet the same standards. | 00:31:07 | |
Right. But if they ever discontinue? | 00:31:12 | |
Then they'd have to review or evaluate it. So you mentioned the idea of a safety clause savings clause. If it's not included, it's | 00:31:15 | |
prohibited. Yeah. | 00:31:19 | |
Going to our next item, the amendment that we're going to consider later tonight, do we have a savings clause in that one? | 00:31:25 | |
No. | 00:31:33 | |
The problem will we OK, you have to come up with an exhaustive list of what is permitted. | 00:31:36 | |
It's much easier to come up with a list of 15 or whatever we came up with so far. | 00:31:42 | |
And that and that, But to come up with all of the things that we think are out there that are OK would be a very exhaustive | 00:31:48 | |
process. | 00:31:53 | |
I don't know if it's a downside, but one of the consequences to having a savings clause in there that says if it's not listed. | 00:31:58 | |
Then anytime everybody comes. | 00:32:07 | |
That's on that list and oh, we didn't think about that. We'll have to have a legisl. | 00:32:09 | |
Change so. | 00:32:13 | |
That's not I mean. | 00:32:15 | |
You can say, you know, consider a savings clause that if it's not on this list, it's prohibited. | 00:32:20 | |
Recommendation consider that it would be appropriate. | 00:32:25 | |
So is there a revocation clause in this? | 00:32:32 | |
The neighbors continue to complain about a business just because the business isn't really very thoughtful of the neighbors. So if | 00:32:35 | |
it's if it's in violation of their conditions, yeah, you can. There's a revocation process of their license. | 00:32:42 | |
But that means you have to put in all the conditions that they. | 00:32:49 | |
Be mindful of where they parked the cars and. | 00:32:53 | |
That they're not making noise and. | 00:32:57 | |
The other things is you like to think. | 00:33:01 | |
That. | 00:33:03 | |
If you're a Coachella teacher or whatever music teacher. | 00:33:05 | |
You would want to be a good neigh. | 00:33:12 | |
Well, I think you're, oops, sorry, common sense, but I know some businesses don't use, you know. | 00:33:15 | |
They treat the their business like business and don't care about the neighbors. Yeah, I mean if I'm if I'm having that kind of | 00:33:22 | |
impact on my neighbors. | 00:33:26 | |
You know, hey, rather than wait, I know, but can you wait down the street that? | 00:33:32 | |
Fresh Market or whatever. Can you can you go away somewhere else, come back and meet your child? Just. | 00:33:38 | |
You know, it's just a currency, my neighbors. We kind of have a really small St. | 00:33:43 | |
Narrow entrance. | 00:33:48 | |
People in the park here, the harder it becomes for me. | 00:33:49 | |
I think that's our hope. | 00:33:53 | |
But if there's a bad business? | 00:33:54 | |
I don't think we can do much. | 00:33:57 | |
Right. | 00:33:59 | |
At. | 00:34:02 | |
If it comes to the Planning Commission, yeah, you. | 00:34:03 | |
You can revoke your license, right? Because they're. | 00:34:06 | |
But it once it gets into the Gray, it becomes. | 00:34:11 | |
Very good. | 00:34:16 | |
Brad, I wonder about that with respect to the hours of operation. | 00:34:18 | |
Now it's they're listed as, I think 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM. | 00:34:23 | |
And I just wonder about that. | 00:34:28 | |
There's a home based business operating until 10:00 PM. | 00:34:32 | |
And that proves to be disruptive. | 00:34:36 | |
For neighbors. | 00:34:39 | |
Small edge. | 00:34:40 | |
Small engine repair until 10:00 PM, whatever you know, and that's why it says 9:00 on my suggested change. I just wonder if we get | 00:34:43 | |
a lot of complaints. | 00:34:47 | |
Then do we? | 00:34:52 | |
Or does the city have the opportunity to revoke that license after a year? Or what? | 00:34:55 | |
Because 10:00 PM is late. I mean if neighbors have little kids or. | 00:35:01 | |
Yeah, and the 10:00 PM was drawn based off of our noise ordinance. So noise ordinance is 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM. | 00:35:06 | |
The 7:00 AM was based off of. | 00:35:14 | |
Before school as you'll sometimes have lessons or things that are occurring before school, so to include those kinds of hours. | 00:35:17 | |
It's highly unlikely that somebody would be operating a business from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM that's. | 00:35:25 | |
A long time to have a continual stream of people coming in for business services. | 00:35:30 | |
You might have some people that want to operate only in the evenings if they have clients that are coming from. | 00:35:38 | |
Five until 10:00 PM or 6 until 10. | 00:35:45 | |
Massages. The storm has arrived. | 00:35:49 | |
Storm. | 00:35:53 | |
Great. | 00:35:55 | |
The hours of operation is that that flexibility likely you're not going to have a significant amount of disruption. | 00:35:59 | |
If a business is operating in the evening hours if. | 00:36:06 | |
Code enforce. | 00:36:11 | |
Situation that's come to me. | 00:36:12 | |
From holiday. | 00:36:14 | |
Yeah, I mean most of our the majority that I that come. | 00:36:17 | |
Parking. | 00:36:24 | |
Joaquin and that's where if if there were. | 00:36:27 | |
You had a home based occupation. | 00:36:30 | |
Or home occupation that. | 00:36:33 | |
You know. | 00:36:35 | |
Clients. | 00:36:37 | |
On their streets every evening, continuously. | 00:36:39 | |
Then you might have calls from neighbors which would then be a code enforcement. | 00:36:44 | |
And we could enforce that based off of the parking standards. | 00:36:49 | |
Your business operation. All clients have to park either on site or. | 00:36:54 | |
Limited to one on street parking space. | 00:36:59 | |
So if you're continuously having that amount of parking. | 00:37:02 | |
In a neighborhood, then that's code enforcement, and they could have their license revoked because they're operating outside of | 00:37:06 | |
the standards that were already given. | 00:37:11 | |
These are, sorry, this Commissioner. I'm just going to jump in. These are some really good questions. I just want to make sure. | 00:37:16 | |
Are we jumping ahead on our agenda item? Should we table some of these until we actually get to the text amendment? I don't know | 00:37:23 | |
how much more Brad has prepared for us here to to go through with the PowerPoint, but I'm guessing it's not all. | 00:37:29 | |
Around the conditional use and street parking discussions. | 00:37:36 | |
Ones that you guys face a lot and. | 00:37:43 | |
These changes it makes the staff. | 00:37:48 | |
But yes, staff deals with code enforcement on complaints with parking all the time. | 00:37:55 | |
Objects in the street. Somebody has a tree fall down and it's in the street. It's blocking the right of way. We get calls from | 00:38:01 | |
that. Then we have to contact the property owner and have them clean up the fallen tree. That's their responsibility. So we're | 00:38:07 | |
dealing with those kinds of like impeding the public right of way, code enforcement issues all the time. | 00:38:14 | |
And with business operation impact sometimes when? | 00:38:22 | |
When you have a lot of parking or traffic being generated, we generally know when those kinds of things are happening. | 00:38:27 | |
Can I ask a kind of a dumb question? I've been debating whether or not I should ask it or not. But so we have all these zones, | 00:38:36 | |
right? | 00:38:40 | |
That and the zones are established. | 00:38:46 | |
To meet the city plans to have residential areas, business areas we have, residential professional zones we have. | 00:38:48 | |
Different zones that are arranged. | 00:38:59 | |
To provide different services. | 00:39:02 | |
So. | 00:39:07 | |
Like with home based businesses? | 00:39:10 | |
Like why are businesses? If there's like a residential zone, why are they allowed to be in a residential zone? Why shouldn't home | 00:39:13 | |
based businesses? | 00:39:18 | |
Be allowed in a residential. | 00:39:23 | |
Like professional. | 00:39:26 | |
And that still gives land. | 00:39:28 | |
Do you see what I'm saying? I guess I'm just kind of, I'm feeling like people are saying, well, we should be able to use our land | 00:39:32 | |
the way we want to use our land, which they should be able to, but. | 00:39:38 | |
Yes, and. | 00:39:45 | |
What's the purpose in the in the zones then? | 00:39:46 | |
If we don't abide by that. | 00:39:49 | |
So. | 00:39:52 | |
Do cities react to what people are doing? | 00:39:57 | |
Their laws kind of reflect what's happening. | 00:40:01 | |
I think that's the answer to your question. So people were doing home based businesses. | 00:40:04 | |
And then Sidney started regulating home based businesses. | 00:40:08 | |
So you can't do this, You can't do that. And the legislature said, and then they started saying, well, they're going to do the | 00:40:13 | |
room, make it expensive. | 00:40:16 | |
And so we're going to, we're going to charge it $350.00 a year business license fee. | 00:40:19 | |
If they want to do it, then they're going to. | 00:40:24 | |
And then somebody said this is ridiculous, why are we paying this? So legislature comes down and says you can't require city | 00:40:26 | |
business licenses. | 00:40:30 | |
At all and the cost and if. | 00:40:34 | |
It has to be regulated to the cost of administering. | 00:40:38 | |
The license and creating the license. | 00:40:41 | |
So they put a cap basically. | 00:40:43 | |
You know $20 fee business license instead, so. | 00:40:47 | |
It's an attempted cities because you have. | 00:40:51 | |
I would say there's probably. | 00:40:54 | |
Their residential zone. | 00:40:56 | |
It's a residential home. | 00:41:01 | |
I bought a residential property in a residential home I don't want to have. | 00:41:04 | |
My neighbor selling lotions and you know, massage oils out of their neighborhood, out of their house, garage. They make it home. | 00:41:08 | |
I didn't sign up for that. Right. And then you have, others would say. | 00:41:15 | |
I'm just starting a business and I'm an entrepreneur and I can't afford rent right now. | 00:41:20 | |
The only way I'm going to do that is to be able to start this in my home and eventually get out and then. | 00:41:24 | |
We all know that most home based businesses fail within a year or two. | 00:41:30 | |
So that's. | 00:41:38 | |
Cities are trying to regulate as best they can and adapt to what people are doing. | 00:41:40 | |
And sometimes it works. | 00:41:44 | |
Better than this and in the longer history of land use. | 00:41:47 | |
Home based businesses have existed. | 00:41:53 | |
Forever. | 00:41:56 | |
Tailors. | 00:41:57 | |
Operated businesses out of their homes. | 00:41:59 | |
All sorts of services that were home based, so it's just that customary use. | 00:42:03 | |
Just carries through. | 00:42:08 | |
I don't think that's ever changed where home based businesses were not ever allowed. | 00:42:10 | |
They're an accessory. | 00:42:17 | |
So there the main intent or use of the land has to be residential, but we allow accessory uses and some of them basically. | 00:42:18 | |
Like, you're right because you're home. You build your home as population grew. | 00:42:29 | |
You're shrinking, but your home, Main St. | 00:42:35 | |
I'm going to convert my house to a shop and so anyways, there's. | 00:42:37 | |
There's lots of reasons for it. | 00:42:42 | |
That that. | 00:42:43 | |
Perspective. | 00:42:46 | |
I bought a residential home. | 00:42:47 | |
Why is my neighbor selling soaps and motions? | 00:42:50 | |
That she made at all. | 00:42:54 | |
I didn't sign up for that. | 00:42:57 | |
That's potential. | 00:42:59 | |
Yeah, it is. It creates a lot of. | 00:43:00 | |
Cities. You're trying to respond to it. | 00:43:04 | |
I think the biggest according to the law, like those zones that have been set up that doesn't have any precedence, it doesn't have | 00:43:08 | |
any like if you are in a residential zone and that zone is that. | 00:43:15 | |
There's nothing within the law that says. | 00:43:22 | |
That takes precedence. It doesn't matter if you want to run a business out of your house, you're in a residential zone. | 00:43:25 | |
So cities have passed ordinances that allow for it so. | 00:43:32 | |
You can do it. | 00:43:39 | |
It's the primary use and accessories. | 00:43:42 | |
So primary use is residential. No, you can't set up a gas station and have it right, have it be a gas station. You can't. You | 00:43:44 | |
can't convert your house to be a business only. | 00:43:50 | |
So you can't change your house into a boutique and have it operate as a business only. It has to still be a residential use. So as | 00:43:58 | |
long as somebody lives there, yes, it's a fair question. | 00:44:04 | |
As long as somebody lives there, I mean going back to. | 00:44:10 | |
Mean I grew up in Park City and there were lots of shop owners that had apartments above their shops and lived there and. | 00:44:13 | |
That would be. | 00:44:20 | |
If they were. | 00:44:22 | |
Yeah, yeah. And that's so that's kind of a zoning district. | 00:44:24 | |
Commercial. | 00:44:28 | |
And the residential use would be an accessory use or an allowed use. | 00:44:30 | |
Main Street was. | 00:44:39 | |
Not. | 00:44:44 | |
Right. | 00:44:45 | |
Homes that built them as time. | 00:44:47 | |
Past uses changed. | 00:44:49 | |
Zones changed. | 00:44:51 | |
Commercial. | 00:44:55 | |
OK. | 00:44:58 | |
Do you want to go to the next slide, Brad? | 00:45:09 | |
So I didn't find anywhere in the law that 31 minutes Canada is an hour. | 00:45:13 | |
But I think the closer we get to 47 minutes. | 00:45:19 | |
I think we probably So I know they let us know because they got something to do. You tell me what you want to do. | 00:45:23 | |
Let's get an hour training done. There's a lot of snow. We don't want to go out in this stall right now. That squalls ugly play | 00:45:29 | |
out out there. | 00:45:33 | |
So, yeah, next slide. | 00:45:38 | |
So we've already talked about this a little bit, but just a little bit more here legislative body, the City Council. | 00:45:40 | |
They're the only ones that can enact land use regulations. | 00:45:47 | |
So you guys don't get to enact land use regulations you guys get. | 00:45:51 | |
Apply the language regulations with the council passed. | 00:45:55 | |
So. | 00:46:00 | |
Councils. City councils are required by state law. They have to create an amendment zoning districts and Disney general uses that | 00:46:03 | |
are allowed in each zoning that's required by. | 00:46:07 | |
They may establish. | 00:46:13 | |
Other restrictions, you can modify them and amend them. | 00:46:14 | |
Including the configuration modifications. | 00:46:18 | |
The relentless decision that applies sort of criteria or. | 00:46:21 | |
They consider each land use regulation that the Planning Commission recommends. Planning Commission has the authority on its own | 00:46:28 | |
accord to prepare or cause staff to prepare a land use. A proposed land use regulation City Council by law has to consider has to | 00:46:35 | |
be on the agenda and they can adopt it, they can reject it, they can amend it. | 00:46:41 | |
And then? | 00:46:49 | |
And then they can also establish language ordinances that allows for conditions. They don't have to, but they can. | 00:46:53 | |
Next slide. | 00:47:00 | |
The Land use authority there's there can be 3. It depends on what the what the. | 00:47:03 | |
Like a land use application, the Planning Commission of holiday is designated. | 00:47:08 | |
Staff when you guys say. | 00:47:13 | |
Designate final final approval to staff. You're designating for that particular application the staff as a land use authority. | 00:47:16 | |
So anyway. | 00:47:24 | |
That was your. | 00:47:27 | |
Shall approve it conditional use if the reasonable conditions are proposed or can be imposed. | 00:47:32 | |
To mitigate the reasonably anticipated detrimental. | 00:47:38 | |
Other proposed? | 00:47:41 | |
In accord. | 00:47:43 | |
And by design, they're meant to be flexible. | 00:47:45 | |
So there is. | 00:47:48 | |
There's also. | 00:47:51 | |
But it does again seem to favor. | 00:47:56 | |
The land use application, so it's more rather than less generous toward the person asking to do something. | 00:47:59 | |
And that's why Blood was specifically says. | 00:48:06 | |
If it's not prohibited. | 00:48:09 | |
It is permitted. | 00:48:11 | |
That's right. Wait a minute. | 00:48:14 | |
And it's basically because. | 00:48:17 | |
The legislature has designated that private property rights. | 00:48:22 | |
Are incredibly important. | 00:48:28 | |
And allowing people to use their. | 00:48:30 | |
In a way. | 00:48:34 | |
May impact your neighbor, but not so much that you can't do anything. | 00:48:35 | |
I mean, if you wanted to prohibit everything, you're allowed to live there, you're allowed to plant 8 trees. | 00:48:39 | |
You can have 65 square feet of flower space. | 00:48:44 | |
And that's it. And if you want a driveway, it shall be Gray and it shall be concrete. | 00:48:48 | |
There's no credit thing else, No Co. | 00:48:53 | |
No pavers. That's it. | 00:48:56 | |
You want to have some flexibility with your. | 00:48:58 | |
Legislature. | 00:49:01 | |
It makes sense to have houses grouped together and then have sections. | 00:49:03 | |
Grocery stores can be located, gas stations can be located. | 00:49:09 | |
Laundromats. | 00:49:13 | |
Dry cleaners. Dry. | 00:49:14 | |
Restaurants. | 00:49:16 | |
Keep that in a separate way. We don't need to have that in the middle. | 00:49:18 | |
Use. | 00:49:25 | |
You get. | 00:49:32 | |
Residential. | 00:49:34 | |
We're not going to go into too much about appeal authority. You can talk about that a little bit. | 00:49:36 | |
Can be a hearing. | 00:49:44 | |
To be a court judge. | 00:49:46 | |
City Council Sometimes the City Council considers the bill 42. | 00:49:52 | |
So let's say a neighborhood wants to appeal. | 00:49:58 | |
An approval for a site plan. | 00:50:02 | |
That the Planning Commission has done. We're the ultimate authority on that right? | 00:50:04 | |
So you're the decision. So they appeal the ultimate decision makers authority. | 00:50:10 | |
Right. So it was in holiday? | 00:50:19 | |
Oh, OK. | 00:50:23 | |
So there's not a board of adjustment. | 00:50:25 | |
So, you know, holiday. | 00:50:27 | |
OK, that's fine. | 00:50:33 | |
Thank you. There might be one or two ordinances that still have a board of adjustment listed in it. | 00:50:37 | |
But I think it is. | 00:50:41 | |
The city councillor, city manager. | 00:50:43 | |
A point of adjustment, OK. There's some of those in holidays as well. | 00:50:46 | |
Thank you, Brad. In that case, where you have an applicant or a landowner, the landowner applicant, can the public appeal a | 00:50:51 | |
Planning Commission decision? | 00:50:57 | |
Or does it? My understanding is that the? | 00:51:03 | |
Is entitled to appeal, but the public in general wouldn't because that would follow a referendum process. | 00:51:07 | |
Like a preliminary approval, that's not a final decision. So you can't, you can't appeal anything unless it's a final decision, | 00:51:24 | |
unless it's final. | 00:51:28 | |
And so if it's a rezone. | 00:51:33 | |
This is. | 00:51:38 | |
The legislature has changed this a couple of times over the last. | 00:51:40 | |
But at 1:00. | 00:51:45 | |
The state code said that you cannot APPE. | 00:51:47 | |
A referendum, right? And that's how planned decisions will appear. The single spot zone. | 00:51:51 | |
Decision. Spot, zoning decision, single piece of problem. You can't. | 00:51:57 | |
But they changed that. | 00:52:03 | |
Hasn't come up, but I we had one in in some account. | 00:52:07 | |
There was a land use decision that zone change. | 00:52:10 | |
And basically it was. | 00:52:15 | |
The property passed away. | 00:52:19 | |
Their children inherit the. | 00:52:22 | |
Want to? | 00:52:25 | |
43 acres. | 00:52:26 | |
And they It was within the city limits. | 00:52:29 | |
For a rezone. | 00:52:33 | |
From. | 00:52:34 | |
Which is allow you in that one zone in this particular. | 00:52:37 | |
You can put one acre lots on it. | 00:52:40 | |
They wanted to get presidential half the developer. They had a contract. | 00:52:43 | |
Ran through. | 00:52:48 | |
The City Council approved. | 00:52:50 | |
Was that The Who challenged it on a referendum? The public of the residents? | 00:52:56 | |
So but. | 00:53:02 | |
So basically. | 00:53:04 | |
What happened? | 00:53:08 | |
So, so and the referendum mean everyone in the city is voting on it? Yes, yes. So it goes to a ballot. What happened? | 00:53:10 | |
So the legislature changed a few things about what reference what is allowed to do. | 00:53:20 | |
Because basically the developers were basically the council has no. | 00:53:28 | |
The council and the ordinances and the policy are enacted don't mean anything. | 00:53:32 | |
And the residents of the city can prevent any reason they can't prevent the development because they could still put, you know, 42 | 00:53:36 | |
homes on it they want. | 00:53:41 | |
Any outside. | 00:53:46 | |
But there are. I think there's 40. | 00:53:50 | |
And then the legislature. | 00:53:58 | |
Like, maybe we don't want quite so many referendums, yeah? | 00:54:05 | |
You know, it was it was kind of funny because I got a call from a legislative staffer and says, hey, we got your letter. | 00:54:10 | |
It's like a blood letter. | 00:54:16 | |
You wrote about six months ago that said this is not a referral item. | 00:54:18 | |
They're upset about. | 00:54:22 | |
Just quote of the log and. | 00:54:28 | |
Anyway. | 00:54:31 | |
Sometimes, sometimes you. | 00:54:35 | |
Doesn't actually mean. | 00:54:38 | |
And sometimes the legislature is behind. | 00:54:42 | |
On court decisions and incorporating. | 00:54:45 | |
Flight summary, There's appeals. | 00:54:55 | |
And there's different processes. | 00:54:59 | |
I don't want to. | 00:55:10 | |
That's an hour. That's an hour sold. About an hour. Can we get a copy of this? This is a great yeah. And this is a really helpful | 00:55:14 | |
table to you that breaks down legislative versus administrative. | 00:55:20 | |
And do me a favor and just pull out the slide with the table as well, so we get the whole deal and then just the table, just this | 00:55:30 | |
one. | 00:55:33 | |
Send them both. | 00:55:38 | |
Thank you. | 00:55:42 | |
Thanks. We have three more hours. | 00:55:43 | |
Model through this over the year. | 00:55:46 | |
Like a good filler, very relevant to the right. I'm glad everyone could be here to attend too, because that's do we have the | 00:55:50 | |
paperwork we have to sign off on? | 00:55:55 | |
We just have to keep track of it. | 00:56:01 | |
I'll put it in the table. | 00:56:04 | |
Make sure we can. | 00:56:09 | |
Find the road. | 00:56:12 | |
And this is a serious ***** thing. They were. | 00:56:18 | |
Winds and I text from my 14 years about an inch. It's all white out there, right? Let's go quickly. | 00:56:21 | |
All right, so nobody needs a break. We can just roll right into our agenda item, right? | 00:56:30 | |
All right. And with the long anticipated. | 00:56:36 | |
Exciting. | 00:56:39 | |
Conditional use text amendment. | 00:56:41 | |
OK. Gary, do you all care if I present from here about the podium? Great. | 00:56:44 | |
So this is continuation of our meeting that was held in December. | 00:56:52 | |
There were some changes. | 00:56:58 | |
Made based off of the direction from the Planning Commission comments. | 00:57:01 | |
Those are highlighted. | 00:57:07 | |
In the text that's attached to this. | 00:57:10 | |
Basically, let's see. | 00:57:14 | |
There were changes on parking. | 00:57:22 | |
Key point being. | 00:57:26 | |
On street parking is limited to 1 vehicle. | 00:57:30 | |
And needs to be located immediately adjacent to the home or within 200 feet. | 00:57:33 | |
I'm wondering on that particular bullet point, just because we brought up the Cello property a couple times tonight. As fate would | 00:57:41 | |
have it, on my way to this meeting there was a. | 00:57:48 | |
Bryce Brand new, nice car that parked on the opposite side of the street, 4 houses down. | 00:57:55 | |
And as they were getting out and I was going up my street, I had to stop. As they kind of Jay walked diagonally to that property, | 00:58:02 | |
I'm wondering if there's anything that could. | 00:58:07 | |
Put a preference, I don't know if we could require, but put a preference that they have to park on the same side of the street as | 00:58:13 | |
the property to help eliminate that potential safety jaywalking aspect of it. | 00:58:19 | |
I think that's easy to request. | 00:58:26 | |
But it's hard to enforce. | 00:58:31 | |
So could we put like preferred same side as house or something? | 00:58:33 | |
Yeah. And that we have the. | 00:58:38 | |
We could put that in the code, preferably or. | 00:58:41 | |
Addressing safety. | 00:58:45 | |
I don't know how we'd every neighborhood has people walking across their streets illegally all the time. Kids playing in the | 00:58:48 | |
street. I. | 00:58:53 | |
I know it does. | 00:59:00 | |
But you know, we wouldn't put that restriction on people having a church meeting or anything else. I mean, I we we seem to want to | 00:59:03 | |
have more restrictions on home occupation than other normal residential uses. | 00:59:09 | |
And if if HOMEOC is a permitted residential use, I don't know why we want to treat it that much differently. | 00:59:16 | |
I mean that's like how how restricted, I mean I like parking plans. I think that's a good thing that you guys can work with given | 00:59:24 | |
you know, OK you know staggering arrival times and stuff like that, but at some point I mean. | 00:59:31 | |
Jaywalking on a cul-de-sac. What is that? OK, Who's going to enforce that? | 00:59:40 | |
Sure. And it's just more just the concern of if there was a preference given to the client because it was outlined to the | 00:59:45 | |
applicant, Hey, crying, if you're going to park down the street, please park on my if there is parking available, which there was. | 00:59:50 | |
This guy was just in a hurry, so he just pulled over and parked and walked across the street and didn't mind little old me driving | 00:59:54 | |
up my street. | 00:59:59 | |
For I thought about laying on the horn, but I figured I'll be nice, you know? | 01:00:04 | |
Didn't want his kid to drop the cello. | 01:00:10 | |
As as we review applications, we can look at where their parking is being proposed and maybe suggest that of like oh if you have | 01:00:13 | |
people parking, maybe you want to encourage your clients to park on the same side of the street. | 01:00:20 | |
For safety. | 01:00:28 | |
But to actually have it outlined in the code is it has to be on the same side of the street that. | 01:00:30 | |
I It might be a little too restrictive. Gotcha. OK, just a thought. Enforcement issue, right? Yeah. | 01:00:35 | |
Is it reactionary? | 01:00:43 | |
Proactive. | 01:00:49 | |
We don't have a stakeout on the cello house. | 01:00:50 | |
Well. | 01:00:54 | |
I had a couple of questions. | 01:00:59 | |
One this is this is a little bit broader than the parking, but last time, gingerbread up. | 01:01:03 | |
The thought that. | 01:01:11 | |
About public hearings and so, so this. | 01:01:14 | |
Amendment would take out like the public notice right. Right And and in some ways I think that could be a good thing. I I can't | 01:01:19 | |
remember who brought it up but the idea that if you're if you want to run a home based therapy business I don't think your | 01:01:23 | |
neighbors should know that everyone walking into your house needs therapy. That seems like a privacy violation but it also seems | 01:01:27 | |
like actually. | 01:01:32 | |
It does make it more proactive to have neighbors be like, hey, I'm concerned about this and mitigate it. | 01:01:37 | |
Beforehand rather. | 01:01:45 | |
Have neighbors called the cops on their? That just seems like actually, you know, it seems reactive, and it seems like it could | 01:01:47 | |
put people in awkward or. | 01:01:52 | |
Situations with their neighbors. So I'm I'm just trying to I don't know what the answer is but I'm trying to figure out how could | 01:01:57 | |
we balance this idea of sort of privacy and. | 01:02:02 | |
Streamlining the process while. | 01:02:07 | |
Somehow getting input from neighbors to preemptively say. | 01:02:11 | |
This corner is kind of a tricky corner, or we've got these considerations. | 01:02:15 | |
Instead of having it be on the back end where your neighbors are unhappy and their only option at that point is to call code | 01:02:21 | |
enforcement. Does that make sense? | 01:02:25 | |
Yeah. And that's, I mean we get, we get calls from neighborhood neighbors all the time about, you know, parking issues. A lot of | 01:02:29 | |
times those calls are met with, you know, streets are public right, of ways. And we don't regulate parking on streets beyond, you | 01:02:35 | |
know, if a car is parked there for longer than 24 hours at a time, if a car is parked there during a snowstorm, those are | 01:02:41 | |
instances that we would. | 01:02:48 | |
Regulate that. So, following that same kind of process with a home occupation, here's what our standards are for the home | 01:02:54 | |
occupation. This person has a license. | 01:03:00 | |
These are the standards that they're operating within. If you notice that they're operating outside of these standards, please let | 01:03:06 | |
us know and we can. | 01:03:10 | |
Follow an enforcement process for that. | 01:03:16 | |
We do have and. | 01:03:20 | |
On our GIS portal. | 01:03:23 | |
We have this Holiday Business license locations in our interactive maps. Cool. | 01:03:25 | |
So and we do have a lot of home businesses already on here. | 01:03:31 | |
So people who have business licenses, they are shown on this map. | 01:03:36 | |
It doesn't give any details. | 01:03:41 | |
The legend is over here. I didn't see you follow your neighbors. I've got there. So it shows occupied or mobile business. So you | 01:03:46 | |
see in this neighborhood there's some blue ones. So those are like mobile businesses where they're. | 01:03:52 | |
You know, operating in other locations, but it's based out of their home. | 01:03:59 | |
Occupied our. | 01:04:04 | |
These licens. | 01:04:06 | |
There's some that are likely occupied. Those are you see those more in commercial spaces? | 01:04:09 | |
Vacancies. | 01:04:15 | |
So that's the level of detail. | 01:04:17 | |
It doesn't give an exact. | 01:04:19 | |
But I. | 01:04:23 | |
Pinpointed on. | 01:04:25 | |
So people can see where businesses are operating. We also utilize this if somebody calls and says, you know, here's this my | 01:04:27 | |
neighbor's operating business, here's my concerns. | 01:04:34 | |
We can say, oh, they have a license. | 01:04:41 | |
Here's what their standards. | 01:04:44 | |
So I think there is an enforcement route, there's a way for people to be informed and if they do have concerns. | 01:04:48 | |
We can address those concerns either through enforcement or by answering questions, giving information to whoever is calling. | 01:04:54 | |
Uh-huh. | 01:05:01 | |
I think that's very. | 01:05:05 | |
To know so that you know, you see. | 01:05:07 | |
There's something going on in your neighbor's house regularly. | 01:05:12 | |
You go online and find that, oh, they have business license. I'm going to go find out what city. | 01:05:16 | |
Yeah. And they can do a records request for somebody's business license as well. | 01:05:22 | |
There seems to be an abnormal amount of traffic coming to and away from my neighbor's house. | 01:05:29 | |
And then it doesn't get into like a personal detail situation where. | 01:05:36 | |
Giving out so much personal details on somebody's business operations. Instead it's they have a business license. Here's what | 01:05:40 | |
their business is for. | 01:05:44 | |
Or the name of their business. You know what their business license and tells. Here's the standards the home based businesses all | 01:05:48 | |
have to meet. | 01:05:52 | |
If they're operating outside of those standards, then. | 01:05:57 | |
Follow an enforcement. | 01:06:00 | |
Here, as I can tell, I don't either. | 01:06:03 | |
Just to chill out, is there any? | 01:06:06 | |
Minimum threshold below which people don't need a license at all, like if they teach one violin lesson a month. | 01:06:11 | |
No. Anytime you have clients that are coming to your house for business purposes, you would need a. | 01:06:18 | |
Currently a conditional use permit. | 01:06:26 | |
If you don't have any clients coming to your house, you're not required to have a business license at all. | 01:06:30 | |
Some people opt to have a business license that's called an unregulated business use or an unregulated home occupation. | 01:06:37 | |
Some people choose to do a business license anyway if their home insurance wants it, or some other sort of funding, or whatever. | 01:06:46 | |
They want a business license so they can apply for a business license, renew it every year. It's $20.00, but they're not required | 01:06:51 | |
by the city to have it. | 01:06:57 | |
Is there any world in which we would, as a city, consider like you're teaching two lessons a month? | 01:07:03 | |
We don't. We don't even care. You don't even have to tell us about it. Is there a world in which we would? | 01:07:10 | |
Think about that. I'm just. I'm just. | 01:07:16 | |
Because the easier it is to do this, I think the more people will do it legally. But is there a threshold? We're like, you know | 01:07:18 | |
what, don't? | 01:07:22 | |
Don't worry about it. You're doing that twice a month. We Don. | 01:07:25 | |
We're not going. | 01:07:28 | |
Make you get a lighting at that point. It would be that your neighbors are not likely to notice that. | 01:07:30 | |
Anyway. | 01:07:35 | |
Just flying under the radar, Yeah, No, but I mean, you know, if they want to comply with the law, but it's like tiny. It's not a | 01:07:38 | |
busy, you know, it's not a business. It's like. | 01:07:42 | |
How does a service like yard sales or people that are Facebook marketplace, KSL gurus, how does that factor in there? So like | 01:07:46 | |
pallet cells if you have people coming to pick up items from your house that you're selling as a business? | 01:07:53 | |
Then you would need to have a home occupation. | 01:08:01 | |
If. | 01:08:04 | |
It's a side hustle out of their, out of their. It's less than 500 a year. I don't have to claim it on taxes. | 01:08:06 | |
I know that. | 01:08:13 | |
Actually does allow, isn't it? It allows for A1 yard sale per year I believe. | 01:08:15 | |
Yeah. So if you have a yard sale one whole quarter, you have to apply for a business license. | 01:08:23 | |
Yes. | 01:08:34 | |
Who's going to do that? I don't know. Right. You're going to say, oh, you've had your one yard sale per year? | 01:08:37 | |
But you could see how if you're we had a. | 01:08:43 | |
Down our street that they said they were having an estate sale every single Saturday. Yes. And their front yard was littered with | 01:08:48 | |
junk. Yes. And that becomes an issue because your code then. | 01:08:54 | |
It was an issue, but if you're having one once 1/4 and they clean it up and. | 01:09:02 | |
Who's going to help, right? | 01:09:06 | |
Yeah. | 01:09:09 | |
I guess my question. | 01:09:12 | |
I guess my question is. | 01:09:15 | |
So I'm imagining, I know several people who are just, like, very scrupulous, right? They want to be legal, They want to be good | 01:09:18 | |
citizens. And if it says you have to have a business license for one lesson a month? | 01:09:23 | |
They won't. They won't do the lesson rather than not. Like, you're right, the neighbors won't care, the neighbors won't know, but | 01:09:28 | |
they want to be law abiding citizens. Is there? Is there some way to write it into the code to say there is some threshold, not | 01:09:32 | |
just? | 01:09:37 | |
We're waiting for the neighbors to notice that you're doing something illegal. Does that make sense? Like it's it's more of a. | 01:09:42 | |
Putting their mind at rest, you don't have to go through the trouble of getting a business license if it's under this very, very | 01:09:48 | |
low thing, you know, having run a code compliance department. | 01:09:54 | |
The If you wherever you draw the line, everyone who's violating it will claim they're under the line and make the city prove they | 01:10:01 | |
have more than two, or more than three, or more than four. | 01:10:06 | |
It really is easier to say here's the hard line and that and and that if if you say it's two lessons a month and then the | 01:10:11 | |
neighbors say, Oh no, I see that, you know, then we send to have to send code people out and watch through binoculars and count | 01:10:19 | |
cars and all that. And it's not worth the hassle because people use that number and they they they're willing to swear in court | 01:10:27 | |
that they, you know, and I only had to well other than last week when I had four. But that was a special circumstance. | 01:10:35 | |
I averaged it over the last five years. And I mean, yeah, it's easier to have yes or no than it is to have a number. | 01:10:43 | |
And then? | 01:10:53 | |
So I guess it's true on the opposite end then too, as far as how much traffic is coming in. | 01:10:56 | |
And because if the if we just have established hours of operation between 7:00 AM and 10:00 that they can do recitals twice a | 01:11:12 | |
month. | 01:11:17 | |
That group lessons can only have. | 01:11:23 | |
You know, six people at a time, but there isn't any kind of regulation of how many people can actually be coming in and out if you | 01:11:26 | |
have every half hour somebody coming into a home from 7:00 AM until 10:00 PM. | 01:11:33 | |
And sometimes three and four people coming in every half hour. You know this business that I have on my street, they have three | 01:11:41 | |
different beds. | 01:11:45 | |
That they have three different clients at one time. | 01:11:50 | |
Which under this standard would be. | 01:11:55 | |
Permissible. Do they have multiple employees? | 01:11:58 | |
They have one employee. | 01:12:02 | |
So with one. | 01:12:06 | |
And their clients staggered. | 01:12:09 | |
It gets to a point where it's. | 01:12:13 | |
If you're operating for that many hours. | 01:12:16 | |
Staff would look at that and say this. | 01:12:20 | |
Way beyond what would be a normal use. | 01:12:23 | |
They live there and they have. So this is this is where the other thing they have a home and they are you. Currently they're using | 01:12:32 | |
their garage or. | 01:12:36 | |
Which isn't permissible right now, right? But under this it would be. | 01:12:43 | |
So if that's the case, then where does the residential versus if they have an accelerated accessory dwelling unit? | 01:12:48 | |
So they can't. Did you see what eliminate their garage parking? | 01:12:58 | |
Operating the business 15 hours out of the day. | 01:13:03 | |
My argument is it's not that the business is no longer. | 01:13:06 | |
A secondary or accessory use. | 01:13:10 | |
To the. | 01:13:12 | |
Because they live there. So is there something I didn't see it that says that, That says if it's. | 01:13:13 | |
Up to a certain amount of time that it's, it just says if it's, but I think that's the legal argument. | 01:13:19 | |
This is no longer the primary use of this facility is no longer. | 01:13:29 | |
Residential. | 01:13:34 | |
Primarily commercial. | 01:13:36 | |
And that changes the character. | 01:13:38 | |
But if I remember better, this person doesn't have a business. | 01:13:40 | |
They have a business license. They do have a business license. | 01:13:43 | |
You don't have a conditional use permit. | 01:13:47 | |
But, and I don't mean to single out, I'm just using this as an example like it, it gets to the point where if you've got that | 01:13:51 | |
going on, it just seems like there's a lot of and going back to our training that if the land user if they go well. | 01:13:59 | |
I'm living here. I have 5 kids that all live here. | 01:14:08 | |
This is our. | 01:14:13 | |
Isn't that going to take precedence over a single? You're operating 15 hours a day. It sure doesn't seem like this is. | 01:14:15 | |
Primarily a. | 01:14:23 | |
That's where the argument comes in. | 01:14:26 | |
Is so. | 01:14:28 | |
You're going to have a dispute and a disagreement. | 01:14:31 | |
And if it's that, if you're having that many, if it's three at a time or an hour, you're having 45 people. | 01:14:34 | |
Come to the home in a day. | 01:14:41 | |
I think that's a fairly easy argument to make. OK, changing the character of that so there doesn't need to be something clearer in | 01:14:44 | |
our ordinance in our. | 01:14:49 | |
Language. | 01:14:54 | |
So our language says that ensure that home occupations are compatible with. | 01:14:56 | |
The zone which they're located. | 01:15:02 | |
Having no negative impacts on the surrounding neighborhood. | 01:15:04 | |
And do not have combined off site impacts. | 01:15:09 | |
Of the home based business, so off site would be. | 01:15:12 | |
Streets, Traffic, not on the property itself. | 01:15:15 | |
Offsite impact. | 01:15:19 | |
And the primary I like a three. | 01:15:21 | |
But. | 01:15:25 | |
Where it says no negative impacts, that's just simply not true. | 01:15:26 | |
And that and I on my little list of edits. I think that language in three belongs up and a somewhere. | 01:15:30 | |
And may belong in three as well. But to say having no negative impacts on the surrounding neighborhood, that's impossible standard | 01:15:39 | |
because there's always impacts. | 01:15:44 | |
And that. | 01:15:50 | |
And then and three is a reasonable standard and maybe a legally defensible standard. | 01:15:52 | |
If this neighbor came in and applied for a business license and said, oh, we'll be open with three clients and 45 people a day and | 01:15:59 | |
all that. You can use this provision in three to deny that or to restrict it to something more reasonable with normal residential | 01:16:06 | |
use, like 6 or 8 trips a day. | 01:16:13 | |
And that's what I was looking for. It's just something more. I think 3 is good language. I just think it contradicts or is not | 01:16:20 | |
consistent with having no negative impacts. That's an impossibly high standard. | 01:16:26 | |
Minimal negative effects. | 01:16:34 | |
And I was just going to suggest you strike that and rely on a three. | 01:16:38 | |
As the method of. | 01:16:43 | |
When you get information, you know and. | 01:16:46 | |
Going to exceed the reasonable residential impact then you can deny it. So maybe instead of having saying no negative impacts. | 01:16:50 | |
Saying that insurers primary residential use. | 01:17:01 | |
Or. | 01:17:06 | |
Home occupations are an accessory use. Yeah something like that. And rather than no prime, yeah because I agree with not to over | 01:17:08 | |
not to oversimplify it but could you maybe just put having minimal to know so that there's still subjectivity but it's not an | 01:17:15 | |
absolute 0 threshold of subjectivity it's just minimal being like or having reasonable impacts and we and later in the here we | 01:17:22 | |
define what reasonable is. I just I just seem like an impossible standard to say no impact because any neighbor could come and | 01:17:29 | |
make an argument about. | 01:17:36 | |
Well, obviously this has a negative impact. That's why I'm here. | 01:17:43 | |
Yeah, there's one car trip or a day. That's five people coming in there. They leave at 10:00, at 9:59 when the last count, you | 01:17:46 | |
know, right, whatever. So that that was my first really technical. | 01:17:52 | |
Saying I love freebie or a three, I think that's exactly what you'd want. | 01:17:58 | |
And I do think that would solve your. Yeah. Thank you. I appreciate. Yeah. And kind of to follow up on that because I didn't ask | 01:18:05 | |
it before. So someone comes in and says that our hours of operation are going to be, you know, 3:00 to 2:00 or 8:00 to 2:00, you | 01:18:13 | |
know, three days a week when you grant the business license. Is that the hours of operation for that business license or does this | 01:18:21 | |
automatically grant the ability of the person to operate at any point? | 01:18:30 | |
From 7:00 in the morning till 10, seven days a week. If it's a conditional use and that is a stated condition in the conditional | 01:18:38 | |
use of those are their hours of operation. OK, if it's just a business license and. | 01:18:45 | |
And it's not a conditional use. | 01:18:52 | |
So really they can come in and say anything they want to get the business license and then immediately expand to the full. | 01:18:56 | |
7 to 10, but you're going to know, I mean if we have new conditional units, if there's visitors to the to the home based business, | 01:19:05 | |
then we have the opportunity to. | 01:19:09 | |
But I mean can't can the license establish the hours of operation to match what they requested and say yes, that's reasonable. | 01:19:14 | |
Reasonable. And that and that. And then they want to expand. Should they have to come back in and and. | 01:19:22 | |
Repurchase, yes. But again, it comes down to an enforcement issue. We have a 7:00 to 10:00 PM. It's easy to say, oh, you're | 01:19:30 | |
operating outside of that, you can. | 01:19:34 | |
But if it's down to the individual business license. | 01:19:39 | |
I guess that's just one more step. | 01:19:42 | |
Is there a way to? | 01:19:45 | |
Include in the process of getting a business license, is this a home based business or not? That was a question I had too. And | 01:19:48 | |
then that if they say yeah yeah they check a box, then they have to. | 01:19:55 | |
So I think Steph looks at that of the address, right? Yes. So if the address is a home, they automatically have to get pushed into | 01:20:02 | |
the home base, right. It's a different, I mean it's a business license, but it's a different. | 01:20:08 | |
Set of standards of where they're located. | 01:20:15 | |
And that's possible that then in so as the Planning Commission, you're only overseeing Title 13? | 01:20:19 | |
But Title 5 is business licensing. | 01:20:28 | |
So that might be something. | 01:20:31 | |
Could be changed in the business licensing? | 01:20:35 | |
Title of limiting hours of operation. | 01:20:38 | |
As stated on a business license for home occupations and that would have to be decided by your business license official. | 01:20:44 | |
And then City Council. | 01:20:52 | |
How do we or do we have the? | 01:20:54 | |
To protect. | 01:20:59 | |
From. | 01:21:01 | |
As have arisen. | 01:21:03 | |
In Ginger's neighborhood. | 01:21:06 | |
You know, we've got a home based business in her neighborhood. | 01:21:07 | |
That is disruptive. | 01:21:12 | |
So I would say with that business, they're likely operating outside of what standards would be. They haven't gotten a conditional | 01:21:14 | |
use permit. There hasn't been conditions that have been imposed. We don't have this set of standards that they're not operating | 01:21:20 | |
under. They have a business license for their business. | 01:21:25 | |
But not a business license for or a conditional use permit for the operation business license, like if they looked up the address. | 01:21:32 | |
How did they get the business? | 01:21:39 | |
The way you look at that, you can. | 01:21:41 | |
Report. Well, they have to be. So they might. The applications are private, Yeah. They may not have stated the full intent of | 01:21:43 | |
their business. They may have just applied for a business license and said I'm operating a business outside of our home. Our | 01:21:50 | |
business license official is very good at if you're having clients come to your house, you need to have a conditional use permit. | 01:21:57 | |
Now it's up to the applicant then to apply for that conditional use permit. Is there. I guess this would be making it. | 01:22:05 | |
It seems like there shouldn't be that gap though, to like, oh, you gotta do this thing and then they have to do the thing like, | 01:22:14 | |
can it be something? | 01:22:17 | |
More automatic, you know, like you don't get the license for the business of its home occupied until you do the thing. | 01:22:21 | |
If there's So what likely happened is that they looked into it. | 01:22:27 | |
And I don't know this person at all. | 01:22:32 | |
What likely happened is they looked into what it takes to do what they want to do and they thought, well that's burden so I'm not | 01:22:35 | |
going to do it. I'm just going to not check this box here. I don't have anything complaints coming to my home check and then. | 01:22:40 | |
I mean, we're relying staff is relying on the person. | 01:22:47 | |
Be honest on. | 01:22:51 | |
And forthright and what they're putting on the application and we don't have any way to say. | 01:22:52 | |
Sally lied on her application, right? Or go watch their house and say let me make sure that nobody's coming to your house and | 01:22:58 | |
they'll figure it out when Ginger calls code enforcement and they finally come and get their use permit, which is which is what | 01:23:03 | |
happens. | 01:23:08 | |
What one question I guess too is. | 01:23:15 | |
So once code enforcement gets called, is the process then like, hey, we're going to revoke your license, which is encouraging | 01:23:18 | |
people to, I don't know. | 01:23:21 | |
Do massages on the black market or does it is it more like, hey, these problems are happening, let's talk about mitigation and it | 01:23:26 | |
goes back to this thing about yes, conditions, so with the cello lessons. | 01:23:32 | |
That was a code enforcement call, so started with code enforcement. | 01:23:38 | |
We issued a notice of violation. | 01:23:44 | |
The terms of that notice of violation is that you have to be compliant with the code. | 01:23:46 | |
Part of being compliant is getting a conditional use permit. | 01:23:51 | |
So then the applicant turned in a conditional use permit. We went through that whole process. | 01:23:54 | |
That's kind of where we started looking at. | 01:24:00 | |
Do we want to even have conditional use permits? | 01:24:04 | |
Can we move it to a set list of standards so that? | 01:24:07 | |
Where we're. | 01:24:11 | |
Making it easier for an applicant. You have people who apply for business licenses, don't want to go through a process of having a | 01:24:13 | |
public hearing, a Planning Commission and scheduling and all of that just to. | 01:24:19 | |
Have people who are coming to their house twice a month. | 01:24:26 | |
Or once a week. | 01:24:30 | |
You know, whatever frequency they're like, oh, I don't want to do that for the amount of time that I have people that are coming | 01:24:34 | |
to my house. So changing it to a list of standards, we can say yes, you check all these standards or here's what you have to | 01:24:39 | |
comply by. | 01:24:44 | |
If you have people who are coming to your house. | 01:24:50 | |
You don't have to go through a process of a public hearing. | 01:24:52 | |
Planning. | 01:24:55 | |
All of that. | 01:24:56 | |
Do you still have to come but you still have to come? See somebody on staff in person? | 01:24:58 | |
Well, you can you submit an application, It has to have all the details included so they don't have to walk into the City Hall or. | 01:25:03 | |
Anything. If it's like, oh this looks good, check. | 01:25:10 | |
OK, so our review process is interactive for Wilson. They submit through an online portal. They have to have all their details. If | 01:25:14 | |
they don't have all their details, their application is incomplete. We send them back comments that say you need to submit these | 01:25:20 | |
details. | 01:25:25 | |
So then they submit the details and then we can comment. | 01:25:32 | |
You need to address this. You need to address this. | 01:25:36 | |
That seems reasonable to me. | 01:25:40 | |
I had another question, but it's changing. I mean it's looking at another part. | 01:25:43 | |
Is that OK? | 01:25:47 | |
Where is it? There's a line about something about something. Something about 1/4 of a mile. Something. Something. | 01:25:49 | |
You don't know about operating within one. Here it is one 32133, line 132 if it blah blah blah. If additional home occupations are | 01:25:56 | |
being connected with them, 1/4 mile additional conditions to mitigate in petrol, blah blah. | 01:26:04 | |
So is that. | 01:26:12 | |
Again, is that only proactive or if somebody applies for a license, right? Is it, is this saying you would then go back to the | 01:26:14 | |
other two people on the street who also are legitimately operating and they had mitigation things and say, hey, by the way, we | 01:26:21 | |
have to now mitigate with a third one in mind. Does that make sense? No, it would apply to only the new application. So it's | 01:26:27 | |
saying that if you're applying for a home occupation and there's already one that's existing within 1/4 mile, we're going to look | 01:26:33 | |
at that. | 01:26:39 | |
Existing one, right? | 01:26:46 | |
And might create some additional conditions maybe offset times we say, OK, they're operating. | 01:26:47 | |
These times or they have pickups that for these times, so thus. | 01:26:54 | |
Operation would need to be offset from that. So does disadvantaged people who are applying later. | 01:26:59 | |
Yes, yeah. | 01:27:05 | |
Good questions. So then somebody who's applying later might just have more stringent things in order to operate instead of | 01:27:11 | |
equalizing them across. | 01:27:15 | |
Businesses, right? | 01:27:21 | |
I don't know how I feel about that. Let me think about that. | 01:27:23 | |
Can we jump to the list of prohibited and then I appreciate you dealing with the ammunition. I have two or three other thoughts on | 01:27:29 | |
this one. Number two has kennels and I'd like to add animal husbandry to that list. | 01:27:36 | |
Like animal husbandry and or camels and then. | 01:27:44 | |
The breeding of any kind of animals as a home occupation, I think is problematic. | 01:27:49 | |
Yeah, I will have a lot of that addressed in our allowed uses table. | 01:27:55 | |
So these prohibited uses were based off of things that were not explicitly in our and if it's somewhere else in the ordinance, I | 01:28:01 | |
just wanted to make sure that it showed up there definitions as well. So some of those breeding cell of animals. | 01:28:09 | |
Small. | 01:28:19 | |
Home breeding businesses. | 01:28:21 | |
Defined in the definitions. | 01:28:23 | |
As not allowed or allowed. So we went off of the allowed use table and then added specifics and prohibited that we're not the next | 01:28:26 | |
one on there was they went on welding shops and and machine shops and. | 01:28:33 | |
And a couple of other ordinances I looked at and it's fabrication. So it's broader than just. | 01:28:42 | |
In other words, if you're fabricating stuff that seems to inherently bring noise or equipment or gas. | 01:28:50 | |
You know power or whatever and that and. | 01:28:57 | |
I'd like to broaden that to fabrication. And then just could that be again for the like 3D printers though, which are in the house | 01:29:01 | |
and quite quiet. I think printers are fabrication. | 01:29:07 | |
If you're a 3D printer is for sure. Yeah. Metal, metal fabric. Yeah. Right, right. Gotcha. Yeah. So you know, just a little, you | 01:29:14 | |
know, because if they say I, well, I don't have the press and I don't have the welding, but I assemble a bunch of metal stuff, | 01:29:21 | |
yeah, they have something that is going to be so I think a little broader so. | 01:29:28 | |
Fabrication. Metal fabrication, yeah, metal fabrication, I think, yeah, it's metals and that I wood is kind of. | 01:29:37 | |
Because we get all people making Santa Clauses all year in their garage. | 01:29:45 | |
It creates so many. | 01:29:52 | |
Well, you can't fill the boat. Your middle boat's in your backyard. | 01:30:07 | |
And the other one was the prohibition on tattoos and body art. | 01:30:15 | |
And my question is why that? | 01:30:21 | |
Particular. | 01:30:25 | |
Or ethnic, I mean, we do. | 01:30:27 | |
Hairstyling in Homes Why can't we do tattooing? | 01:30:31 | |
Tattooing and body art is not allowed in holiday at all. | 01:30:34 | |
Just like smoke shops. | 01:30:40 | |
OK, there's a story. | 01:30:43 | |
OK. Yeah. So cosmetics, permanent cosmetics. | 01:30:47 | |
Yes. | 01:30:51 | |
Tattoos and body art? No. So I can get my eyebrows, but I can't get a skull? Yes. All right. | 01:30:53 | |
So you have a lot of people who are that start out in permanent cosmetics doing like microblading. | 01:31:00 | |
For eyebrows. And then they'll transition and become a fine line tattoo artist. | 01:31:09 | |
But they can't do that within their. So you'll have like somebody who's renting a booth doing microblading and then they'll start | 01:31:15 | |
doing. | 01:31:20 | |
Fine. Line body. | 01:31:24 | |
But we got saved. No, you cannot do body art. It's limited to this specific permanent cosmetic tattooing only. | 01:31:27 | |
What's the reason for? | 01:31:37 | |
It creates if you're saying OK now you can do fine line tattoo, what's the difference between how do you say yes you can do that, | 01:31:41 | |
but you can't do a tattoo that is. | 01:31:47 | |
Larger or involves more colors. | 01:31:52 | |
Why can't they do that? Why can't they do tattooing in holiday? | 01:31:55 | |
Land use. That's just what it was decided by City Council as to be. | 01:32:02 | |
Not permitted use. | 01:32:08 | |
I agree it shouldn't be on the list if we don't allow commercial. | 01:32:10 | |
And you're telling me we don't allow? | 01:32:14 | |
Interesting. Yeah. Interesting. | 01:32:19 | |
That's someone else's fight and they want to go to the council. | 01:32:21 | |
Many of us have relatives in the tattooing business, and it seems rather odd that other people can do all kinds of. | 01:32:25 | |
Things on bodies, including your neighbors, apparently, and not be in violation of medical, dental and optical. And then so do we | 01:32:33 | |
define laboratory, medical, dental and optical. | 01:32:39 | |
And it's only laboratory, not actual. So if you. | 01:32:46 | |
Do the teeth whitening if you put them in the chair and do Botox that that permitted home use or not. | 01:32:50 | |
I'd have to look at our allowed uses. I don't. I don't think dental is allowed. | 01:33:00 | |
I don't think so either. Teeth. Lightning going on, you need to have it listed. | 01:33:05 | |
Where did you say these were defined more? | 01:33:14 | |
Two locations, you guys. It's like where it's at right now. | 01:33:21 | |
And permanent eyebrows and so. | 01:33:27 | |
My neighbor is now training people. She has people come in to start their own. | 01:33:31 | |
Keith Whitening It's Time to turn Her in, Ginger. | 01:33:36 | |
Turn her into code enforcement. So and she she has appointments that she'll have, you know, maybe 3. | 01:33:41 | |
People come a day to start their own teeth whitening and and spray tan business that she trains them and she gives them a kit. | 01:33:50 | |
Yeah, it sounds like it. Yeah, you need to cut code enforcement. It's other young moms. It's other, you know, people that want to | 01:33:58 | |
be home that are doing it. I'm telling you it's a big business in holiday. | 01:34:05 | |
So Ginger lives on a street where a lady's instead of doing Tupperware, she's setting up network marketing spray tan and teeth | 01:34:13 | |
whitening. | 01:34:18 | |
Right. OK, well, that's cool. Maybe she'll take off like Lulu, whatever her name is. | 01:34:23 | |
Did you have anything else on your list? Yeah, two. Quick, Warren. I really read this stuff. That's good. Good. Having mostly | 01:34:30 | |
written one for another city, it's kind of like, OK, I had to go back and look and see what we did and the city where it did it. | 01:34:36 | |
We do not require business licenses. We just require that you comply with these rules. | 01:34:42 | |
We do not issue both business license. We decided not. | 01:34:49 | |
To fight off. | 01:34:52 | |
We have plenty of health going around in the city. | 01:34:54 | |
And then I didn't want to make a pitch and it falls up kind of on your comment. But the more I've thought about this, the the less | 01:34:57 | |
I like the idea that homework should operate till 10:00 at night. | 01:35:03 | |
I'd like to cut that off at. | 01:35:10 | |
And that. | 01:35:13 | |
These are mocks. | 01:35:15 | |
And we don't, most businesses are closed by 10:00 and and I know we, we say has something to do with the noise ordinance or | 01:35:16 | |
something, but the noise ordinance is its own ordinance for other reasons. | 01:35:21 | |
And that and and it seems to me that consistent with the idea of this being a hallmark and a secondary thing. | 01:35:27 | |
Why are they operating at 10:00 at night? And then literally they're OK if they walk out the door at 9:59 and you know, they're | 01:35:35 | |
still getting in their cars and all that happened. I think this is a good opportunity. | 01:35:41 | |
Just trim that down a little. | 01:35:47 | |
I don't you know. I know evening hours are important for some kinds of businesses, but I think for the neighbors sake, 9:00 would | 01:35:49 | |
be much more reasonable than 10:00. | 01:35:55 | |
Yeah, we could. I mean, we can do that as 9:00 PM. | 01:36:05 | |
Anytime it could change if there's any issues, but starting at 9:00 PM and I think it's reasonable. | 01:36:09 | |
I mean, especially when we get into all of this, kids playing and all that, they're not. They're supposed to be home in bed. | 01:36:15 | |
Right before 10:00. There's some kind of curfew at night. Don't be judging us when you put our kids. | 01:36:22 | |
And then I thank you for listening to all this and. | 01:36:31 | |
Has to do with the. | 01:36:35 | |
H. | 01:36:38 | |
We find it here and tell you what line it is. | 01:36:40 | |
Line 95, Yeah, 95, the very end of that. So line 100 says operation should not violate noise ordinance. | 01:36:46 | |
As ordinances detailed in the City of Holiday, None of that. | 01:36:56 | |
That's either duplicates if of some other ordinance or should say shall I think. | 01:37:03 | |
Otherwise, it isn't really enforceable. | 01:37:09 | |
I mean, and remove the should means it's encouraged. Yeah, yeah, I think you could. | 01:37:14 | |
Revoke a license for continuous violations and ultimately, but I think it has to be a shell in order to do that. | 01:37:20 | |
And I think it needs its own section personally, because it's A tag on to an unrelated topic about tools and stuff like that. | 01:37:28 | |
Anyway. | 01:37:38 | |
Good suggestion. | 01:37:41 | |
And I don't want this to sound like I've been really negative, but I love this ordinance. | 01:37:45 | |
The only one thing I don't like about it is allowing a city employee to authorize parking on a public street. I don't think that's | 01:37:53 | |
a good practice, but in spite of that, I think it's so much better than what we have. | 01:37:59 | |
Not only for our time, but just getting more compliance. I think this can make it easier to get compliance. | 01:38:06 | |
And a year from now, we'll fix whatever comes up. | 01:38:12 | |
And I intend on voting for it. I just think it's a. | 01:38:16 | |
A great thing to get us there and excellent and we want to get those changes in. | 01:38:23 | |
And then, Commissioner Barrett, you've been fairly quiet through the evening on this discussion. Did you have any taking it all | 01:38:29 | |
in? I appreciate the suggested changes. Obviously we would like to see things as specific as possible so that there's not this | 01:38:35 | |
ambiguity. | 01:38:40 | |
I'm nervous about the parking still. | 01:38:47 | |
I guess we'll just have to figure it out as we go. | 01:38:50 | |
So to your. | 01:38:54 | |
Do we need? | 01:38:56 | |
Multiple times. | 01:38:59 | |
If there's a noise ordinance are for the city, do we have to? | 01:39:00 | |
That they can't violate that. | 01:39:04 | |
I think that's more of convenience for whoever's for. | 01:39:07 | |
Individual that's getting a home based occupant, just a reminder right that it's all there. | 01:39:11 | |
Just to go back to the comments earlier, so OK. | 01:39:18 | |
It doesn't need to be there. | 01:39:23 | |
Excellent. | 01:39:28 | |
And then Commissioner Prince suggest. | 01:39:29 | |
Yeah, I I wonder in light of our earlier discussion, if we want to include one of those help me savings. | 01:39:31 | |
Clauses in. | 01:39:40 | |
If it's not listed. | 01:39:43 | |
Right, it was not listed. It's not allowed. | 01:39:44 | |
That could be a. | 01:39:47 | |
Really a decision? | 01:39:51 | |
What you can do is just ask council to consider a savings clause that says something along the lines of. | 01:39:53 | |
If. | 01:40:03 | |
In this list it is otherwise. | 01:40:04 | |
Or could you, could you even do something like if it's not in this list, it has to come before the Planning Commission, so that at | 01:40:07 | |
least is under discussion, right? | 01:40:11 | |
Instead of saying yes or no before we even know what it is. And then there's public comment that way too. And I'm sure there are | 01:40:15 | |
things we haven't considered. So certainly why bar them? So that could be. | 01:40:20 | |
I mean it might fall under this. | 01:40:26 | |
We're done. So be home occupations that do not comply with the standards of this section shall apply for conditional use permit. I | 01:40:29 | |
see. So if it's not in the list, we could add in. | 01:40:34 | |
Or somewhat. | 01:40:41 | |
Because then then it has eyes on it and then a decision to be made instead of either. | 01:40:43 | |
Saying no or yes. | 01:40:48 | |
You could put like do not does not comply or falls outside the scope of this. | 01:40:49 | |
Ordinance or something to that effect. I don't want to overly muddy the water here. I think this says what you needed to say. And | 01:40:55 | |
OK, so clear enough, OK. | 01:40:59 | |
Brad feels good about taking it to court. I feel good about it. You feel good about it, Brad. | 01:41:05 | |
All right. We've got the nod of approval. I think that we when I was discussing this with John too, it was that we don't, we don't | 01:41:11 | |
necessarily need a savings clause because the ordinance is already set up in our allowed uses of if it's not. | 01:41:18 | |
Expressly said as permitted, then it's just not permitted. | 01:41:26 | |
OK, that's actually opposite what Lemma says. If it's not expressly prohibited, it is allowed. | 01:41:31 | |
So if we don't have it, so. | 01:41:39 | |
Then I can do it. The tie goes to the if there's. | 01:41:42 | |
If there's a question. | 01:41:45 | |
If there's nothing in the ordinance that says you can't do it. | 01:41:47 | |
Then became, so we have. | 01:41:50 | |
For example, no car washes or no tattoos. | 01:41:52 | |
But I don't know if tattoos are expressly prohibited. | 01:41:56 | |
If they're so, it's not necessarily so. Car washes. Car washes are not in our land use table at all. So since they're not in our | 01:42:01 | |
land use table. | 01:42:06 | |
Then. | 01:42:11 | |
Permitted. | 01:42:14 | |
So you're saying that, like with a car wash, something or some other use is not in the land house? | 01:42:17 | |
They're not in the land use table, but you probably have something that says the only permitted uses are. | 01:42:25 | |
I think so. | 01:42:31 | |
Like card detailing for example, Does that fall into this list? | 01:42:33 | |
Or could I have 10 cars a day come get detailed at my house? | 01:42:38 | |
You can go to their house if I'm mobile, sure, but what if I want him to come to me because I'm lazy and they're OK with it? | 01:42:44 | |
We have that in my neighborhood, too. | 01:42:51 | |
Ginger's got it all. Everything's going down. What strip mall do you live on again? | 01:42:55 | |
Can I ask a question that I don't know, I was just poking around it just a little bit. | 01:43:06 | |
I don't know how to call code enforcement and I'm kind of. | 01:43:10 | |
This camp where it would have to be so bad before I felt like I was calling code enforcement, which is feels to me like the cops | 01:43:15 | |
on my part is because. | 01:43:19 | |
Typically. | 01:43:25 | |
Most cities will say. | 01:43:27 | |
If you want and it's because. | 01:43:29 | |
Especially reactionaries to these reactionary. | 01:43:33 | |
They were parking facility written. | 01:43:36 | |
Those are also. | 01:43:39 | |
Requestable and so then your neighbor knows. | 01:43:43 | |
Who color code? | 01:43:46 | |
So I'm just wondering, first of all, does it feel like? | 01:43:49 | |
Here's the holiday police page. Is that where I report my like? I just. I'm wondering if if we're making it easy for people to | 01:43:55 | |
have home based businesses. | 01:43:59 | |
And there's less public. | 01:44:04 | |
Is there a way to make it so public can have input without coming to this level where you're filling out a police what feels like | 01:44:07 | |
a police report on your neighbor? I would almost never do that, but I might do something that's like. | 01:44:13 | |
Hey I have a question about this. | 01:44:18 | |
Where the links I didn't even know that map of. | 01:44:20 | |
You know, the businesses like some sort of soft entry so that neighbors can ask questions, have a more genial conversation instead | 01:44:23 | |
of doing what feels like calling the police. I would never do that unless something really bad were happening. But if you're in a | 01:44:30 | |
neighborhood where there's a medium level problem and it's really annoying, it's a little bit unsafe. | 01:44:36 | |
Does this make sense? Like I feel like there needs to be some lower threshold of. | 01:44:44 | |
Of not even complaining but figuring out what's going on, initiating a conversation about mitigation. | 01:44:50 | |
Without having it be so feel so drastic. | 01:44:57 | |
So all of our code enforcement right now is done or most people we direct to this citizen request on the main page. That could be | 01:45:01 | |
clearer of code enforcement citizen engagement. There is a code enforcement department. | 01:45:08 | |
What does it look like here? Can you show it? | 01:45:17 | |
Because we are working on doing website redesign, so and we do want to have this kind of information available, we don't want | 01:45:21 | |
people necessarily calling staff if they can. | 01:45:27 | |
Find it on the website easily and. | 01:45:33 | |
Go through that route. So then what did they do? Go down to code enforcement on the left? | 01:45:37 | |
Yep. Do you reporting violation though feels very violent to me. | 01:45:41 | |
I would say because you have to disclose, report a concern, yeah, you have to give all your information. | 01:45:46 | |
Right. And that could be clear of it's not. | 01:45:52 | |
It's not available. | 01:45:57 | |
Filter. | 01:46:01 | |
Right. Access a filter. It's got to be egregious if I'm going to want to put my name to it. | 01:46:04 | |
Is, then if my neighbor finds out I don't want to be. | 01:46:09 | |
It's also a. | 01:46:14 | |
It is. We could just e-mail the code enforcement officer. It's got his e-mail there. Just send him an e-mail. And just like, hey, | 01:46:15 | |
this guy at this house is doing this. I just, you know, letting you know, do what you want with it. But are they then going to | 01:46:20 | |
tell you to fill out this? | 01:46:24 | |
Likely, so when people call, I say. | 01:46:29 | |
Yeah, I can enter in the information. | 01:46:34 | |
But if you want to be able to do this in the future, just fill it out. All of your information is confidential. It just goes to | 01:46:36 | |
the code enforcement officer. We're not telling neighbors who are. We're not interested in creating conflict. I guess you can | 01:46:42 | |
grammar request it like that. | 01:46:47 | |
What you get today once you go to Grandma. Records, Access management. Grandma. | 01:46:54 | |
You can. | 01:47:00 | |
At that point, the city has to determine. | 01:47:03 | |
Well, this is an unlawful or unreasonable invasion privacy. And that's your argument. | 01:47:05 | |
So is is your sense, I guess you're seeing these complaints. I don't know what kind of complaints is your sense that? | 01:47:11 | |
I guess we wouldn't know because you're seeing the complaints that do come through. | 01:47:17 | |
What percentage of those are reasonable versus not reasonable? And then do we have any sense whatsoever of like? | 01:47:21 | |
People that would make a complaint but aren't right. How many gingers there are. Yeah, you know, nice, nice neighbors who don't | 01:47:28 | |
want to say anything. And that's when I have people who call, I get. | 01:47:34 | |
Phone calls from people sometimes that are very Passover, right? They're like, I don't, I don't want to be that person. Like, no, | 01:47:40 | |
we want to know if there's an issue. We want to know about it. We want to make sure that people are being compliant. | 01:47:47 | |
People come in all the time when their neighbors building something, they're like, it seems like they're building really close. So | 01:47:54 | |
then we just have a conversation. | 01:47:58 | |
You know, we go through the site plan review process. Here's the setbacks. I can tell you if they have a building permit, I can | 01:48:02 | |
explain what our review process is. So a lot of it is some education with people, but you know. | 01:48:09 | |
Also encouraging people to come to us if there is an issue because we want to be able to. | 01:48:15 | |
Address issues. | 01:48:22 | |
And that kind of an environment, that's what we have in the planning office has come in, let us know we want to take care of an | 01:48:24 | |
issue if it is an issue, our code enforcement officers. | 01:48:29 | |
Conversational he's. | 01:48:35 | |
When he. | 01:48:37 | |
Out and enforces code. He's. | 01:48:39 | |
He's not confrontational with people, he says. Hey, you know, here's the issue. | 01:48:43 | |
You want to get it taken care of? | 01:48:47 | |
He rarely issues any fines. It's just. | 01:48:50 | |
Let's get this taken care of. | 01:48:54 | |
But nobody wants to be that person. | 01:48:56 | |
Well, no, but they they can. I got another. I got a neighbor who is that person, and there are a lot of people who are that | 01:48:58 | |
people. But but just by calling, you're not being that person. You're saying, hey, this is an issue that's affecting the | 01:49:04 | |
community, You should be aware of it. | 01:49:09 | |
Because it's for. | 01:49:15 | |
Greater good complaining is not inherently a bad thing. | 01:49:17 | |
I guess, I guess what it comes down to from me. | 01:49:21 | |
How do? | 01:49:26 | |
And it's not just. It's only because we know about Ginger's situation. But how do we get to the bottom? | 01:49:28 | |
Ginger situation. | 01:49:35 | |
The neighbors have to call. That's I mean, well and I think, I think it goes beyond that though I think it also goes we as a city, | 01:49:37 | |
we need to work with our business licensing department too and educating people. | 01:49:45 | |
And making sure that the people that are starting businesses that they. | 01:49:52 | |
The resources to know what's permitted. What's not permitted, how to? | 01:49:57 | |
Legally, start a business. | 01:50:04 | |
And how to be successful at it and how if you choose to do it outside of? | 01:50:07 | |
You know the. | 01:50:13 | |
Business owner, whatever. If you choose to do it in your home, how to go about it? It sounds like she's very successful. Thank you | 01:50:15 | |
very much. Yeah. | 01:50:19 | |
And you know, she's training people. | 01:50:24 | |
And unfortunately, I can guarantee that the training that she's giving him isn't You need to get properly licensed within the city | 01:50:27 | |
that you're living in, and you need to go. | 01:50:32 | |
Yeah, I mean, it's just so. | 01:50:39 | |
Maybe we need to do a better job at educating and helping new business owners. | 01:50:43 | |
Well, what it comes down to, You are on the Planning Commission. You could just knock on her door and say, hey, I just wanted to | 01:50:47 | |
let you know, like, I think what you're doing is great. But we just spent two hours tonight talking about what I'm going to do. | 01:50:52 | |
And I'm also going to tell her that it's changing and that there's going to be, like, if you have another business within 1/4 of a | 01:50:57 | |
mile that you're going to be restricted. So I'm going to tell her to hurry up. | 01:51:02 | |
Hurry up and get in there and get it done. I don't think you want to do that. | 01:51:08 | |
Well, I don't know. You know what I'm saying? It comes to this where you want people to. I think you can. You might want to knock | 01:51:13 | |
on our door as a neighbor, but you don't want to knock on her door as a member of the Planning Commission. Yeah. | 01:51:18 | |
That implies some authority to do something. | 01:51:24 | |
Catch more flies with honey. Gingers got the right approach to the complaint and share the responsibility, so they can't just say, | 01:51:29 | |
well, you're the only one that complaints about it. Well, in the bottom line, it doesn't affect my life that it's not like it's my | 01:51:36 | |
life. It's horrible right now because there's businesses going on. | 01:51:42 | |
It's definitely there. There's an impact on the neighborhood and there's lots going on. I noticed it and there's a lot going on | 01:51:49 | |
and. | 01:51:53 | |
You just get enough of that. | 01:51:59 | |
Over and over again. And it's kind of concerning, you know, It makes me wonder, OK, if this is just my little St. | 01:52:01 | |
What else is happening? | 01:52:09 | |
And I think that's where some kind of communication with code enforcement, if you can't civilly as a neighbor resolve the impact | 01:52:11 | |
that it's having on your neighborhood gets where it boils down to unfortunately. Like you know you either be able to walk up to | 01:52:18 | |
your neighbor and handle it and if you can't that's what Officer Warren Doloff gets paid to run around holiday and and tactfully | 01:52:24 | |
address for everyone to help bring compliance to those non compliance situations. | 01:52:31 | |
I do think it should be. It should start before compliance though. It should start when they're getting their business license. | 01:52:37 | |
They they should have an opportunity to be compliant. | 01:52:42 | |
Meaning that they should understand what the requirements are and go about it the right way. And you know, going back to if we can | 01:52:48 | |
make it easy enough for them that they're like, OK, I'm not gonna lie on the application, I can be honest and still. | 01:52:54 | |
You know, operate legally. That's going to make a big difference too, right? And I think that's. | 01:53:02 | |
Exactly the point. | 01:53:08 | |
If it's a difficult process, you're going to have people who even with all of the education, you have a business license official | 01:53:11 | |
that's saying here's what you need to do. You can't have clients come to your house. They're going to find some way around it if | 01:53:18 | |
it means that they don't have to go through this process of a Planning Commission and public hearing. | 01:53:25 | |
So with the cello teacher, when she came in and we're like, you have to have a conditional use permit, You have to have a parking, | 01:53:33 | |
You know, you have to show your parking. You have to show your hours of operation. You have to have a public hearing. Like she was | 01:53:40 | |
almost in tears over that process and you saw that when she came in as well. You know, this is this huge process and now you have | 01:53:47 | |
to do all this. I'm just trying to teach cello lessons. So how do we make that process easier? | 01:53:54 | |
Which brings us back to what we've been discussing now, and unless anyone has any other questions on it, I'm wondering if are we | 01:54:03 | |
at this point comfortable enough that we can maybe make a motion with the suggested changes? This is Commissioner Prince. I'm | 01:54:08 | |
prepared to make a motion this evening. | 01:54:12 | |
Yes. I motion to forward a recommendation to the City Council to approve the application to amend Holiday City code 13.100 and | 01:54:19 | |
13.76 point 760 of the City of Holiday Land Use Code to allow for home occupations to be permitted with standards approved by | 01:54:27 | |
staff, based upon the following findings. | 01:54:34 | |
Compliance with the purpose of the Land Development Code by promoting and facilitating the orderly growth and development within | 01:54:42 | |
the City of Holiday. | 01:54:46 | |
Compliance with the goals and properties or policies of the General Plan by establishing appropriate development standards for all | 01:54:50 | |
uses and zoning categories within the City of Holiday. | 01:54:55 | |
And the additions that we specifically discussed in this meeting. | 01:55:01 | |
Particularly Commissioner Cunningham's. | 01:55:07 | |
We have a motion. Do we have a second? | 01:55:11 | |
All right, we have a second from Commissioner Cunningham and we will go ahead and call for a vote. Then I will start down here, | 01:55:14 | |
Commissioner Barrett, Commissioner gone, Commissioner Prince, Commissioner, Commissioner Cunningham and Commissioner and | 01:55:21 | |
Commissioner Roach votes aye and it passes unanimously. | 01:55:27 | |
Great discussion and appreciate everyone's input on this and hopefully this will take care of a whole lot of work on our future | 01:55:34 | |
calendar once it's all finalized and approved. And with that, I think that brings us to where we can close our meeting and call it | 01:55:41 | |
a night. All in favor, say aye, aye, done. Be safe. | 01:55:47 | |
Anyone else see the camp game? | 01:55:58 |
