| |
| | | | | | | | To: | The Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers
| From: | Alex Rey, Town Manager
| Subject: | Repeal of Twelve (12) Copy Requirement
| Date: | 5/1/2018
|
| |
| | | | | | | | Recommendation: | Implementation of the proposed ordinance is consistent with the One-for-One Policy established by the Town Council onApril 3, 2018, which seeks, as a matter of policy, to delete obsolete provisions of Town Code when a new regulation is being adopted, therefore, staff recommends approval of the ordinance that eliminates the obsolete provision of requiring 12 copies of the plans subject to a site plan public hearing as a companion item to the color regulations on business, industrial and commercial areas. |
|
| | | | | | | | Background: | At the time of the adoption of the Town's Code, the prevailing medium for the submission of site plan applications for public hearing was by way of a paper transmittal. The mode was reflective of a process that predated current technology advances that renders such need as obsolete. Today, plans submitted for hearing are scanned from a single set and published and transmitted electronically. As such the requirement for twelve copies of a plan set is unnecessary.
On April 17, 2018, The Planning and Zoning Board, acting in their capacity as the Local Planning Agency, recommended approval of the ordinance without any changes. |
