C. Presentation and discussion on proposed amendments to the Permitted Uses regulations
relating to Mobile Food Vendors (Amendment No. 1). Andreina Davila -Quintero, AICP,
Current Planning Manager •
Davila presented the proposed amendments as discussed by the committee previously. She
reviewed all the public engagement and reviews that have occurred. The proposed red -line
language was reviewed. She reviewed primary, secondary and transient uses.
The committee had discussion about the bathroom amenities and the significant impact on the
neighboring properties. There is a concern about the cost. Nelson speaks to this and stated the
proposed code language is also working within the building code requirements. The
requirements for a Primary Use mobile food vendor are listed in the proposal. Code
enforcement is for the Special Use Permit requirements and will require an onsite park
manager.
The Secondary Use Mobile Food vendors were reviewed. The primary use owner would apply
for a Temporary Use Permit, which is good for up to one year. The enforcement of this type of
use is through the review of the Temporary Use Permit.
Transient Use is permitted Thursday through Sunday. They may not operate when the primary
use is closed. They are limited to 2 food trucks. No permit is required and enforcement is only
complaint based.
Committee did not have any suggestions or corrections to the proposed text changes. They
only suggested starting with the least restrictive use first. The ordinance language will be
posted online for public review and comment for two weeks then the final ordinance language
will be forwarded to P&Z and Council for approval and adoption.
D. Presentation and discussion on notification requirements for rezoning cases (Amendment No.
UDC Advisory Committee
July 11, 2018
17). Andreina Davila -Quintero, AICP, Current Planning Manager
Davila explained that Council has directed staff to look at this item. She explained the State
Law basic requirements versus UDC standard requirements. The UDC standards meet state
law, but goes beyond by posting notice on the property subject to the zoning request. Council
is asking that the notification to the neighbors be more complete to include additional
information or more notices. She gave examples of notifications by other cities.
The committee was interested in the pre -application threshold meetings with the
neighborhoods as described by what happens in Centennial, CO. They liked the idea but are
concerned that the information given at those meetings cannot be upheld in the applications.
Nelson says she will look at this more closely and bring information back. They are also
interested in the app provided by San Marcos that notifies citizens of applications going
forward. Nelson will also look at incentivizing extra public hearing time.
Davila listed the possible considerations and said staff will take the information back and work
on gathering more information based on the discussion.
E. Update on the 2018 UDC Annual Review Plan, Schedule and Next Steps. Andreina DAvila-
Quintero, AICP, Current Planning Manager
Davila states the MUD Policy language and Parkland Dedication language are being written
and will be provided to the committee soon.
Public Wishing to Address the Board
As of the deadline, no persons were signed up to speak on items other than what was posted on the agenda.
Motion by Haynie, second by Bargainer to adjourn the meeting. Meeting adjourned at 5:00 pm.
