Item # 6.

Council Meeting

Meeting Date:	02/23/2021
Department:	City Secretary

AGENDA CAPTION:

Consider Action on an Ordinance Amending Outdated and Inapplicable Language in Code of Ordinances Chapter 2 (Administration) Article VIII (Board of Adjustment).

BACKGROUND:

Staff reviews the Code of Ordinances to omit outdated and inapplicable language and to provide consistency throughout our Code. The sections proposed for amendment were last updated in April 2016 with the adoption of Ordinance No. O16-010 which contained language from the original codification of the Board of Adjustment. Members appointed to this Board were included in Section 2-316 "Initial appointments and terms". The section title is being changed to clarify the Appointment and Terms of service and delete the individuals appointed in 2016.

This Board is also referred to as the Board of Adjustment in the Code and the Board of Zoning Adjustment in the 2020 Amended Home Rule Charter. To provide consistency, Staff is proposing to add "Zoning" in the title of this ordinance. A red-line copy is attached for your review and indicates the proposed changes. Staff Attorney Craig Smith has reviewed and approved as to form the proposed changes.

RECOMMENDATION:

Administration recommends approval.
