E. Action Items
1. 06:07:25 PM (00:06:39) 17016 Affordable Townhouses Zone Text Amendment
(Saunders)
Citywide. A zone text amendment to change how lot areas are calculated for
affordable townhomes. It would permit flexibility to allow the minimum lot area per
dwelling to be averaged. Change proposed to Table 38.08.040-1 BMC.
Chris Saunders stated that the city is not in opposition to the amendment, but
recommends adding an advisory footnote to provide notice that if the lot width falls
below 25ft, it may become more difficult to develop on that lot.
Commission members and Saunders continued to discuss and clarify the requirements
and the reasons behind them.
06:20:53 PM (00:20:07) HRDC Representative Brian Guyer & consultant Susan Riggs present
their argument for requesting the code amendment to average lot size.
