TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Jaime Aguilera, Director of Community Development ,.
Prepared by Deborah S. Traffenstedt, Senior Planner
DATE: October 28, 1993 (CC Meeting of 11 -3 -93)
SUBJECT: CONSIDER AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 137, THE MOORPARK ZONING
ORDINANCE, BY REVISING SECTIONS 8102 -0 AND 8107 -1.7
RELATIVE TO SECOND DWELLINGS
BACKGROUND
The public hearing for this item was closed at the City Council's
October 20, 1993, meeting. The Council did request staff to make
minor revisions, as discussed below, and return the revised
ordinance for first reading at the November 3, 1993, meeting.
DISCUSSION
At the October 20th meeting, staff was directed to revise the draft
ordinance to make the size limitations for a second dwelling
consistent with those in the existing code; delete the requirement
for a conditional use permit, and include instead a requirement for
neighborhood notification; and include language allowing a fee to
be imposed to pay for staff work required to process the
application for a second dwelling. Attached is a revised draft
ordinance which includes the requested revisions.
By deleting the requirement for a conditional use permit, the only
permit required is a zoning clearance, which is a ministerial
decision. The Director of Community Development could make a
determination that an application for a second dwelling is not
consistent with the requirements of Section 8107 -1.7 of the Zoning
Ordinance, and deny the request for a Zoning Clearance. The
applicant would then have the right to appeal the Director's denial
decision to the Planning Commission. Based on recent changes to
the Zoning Ordinance, only the applicant for a ministerial decision
(i.e., Zoning Clearance) can appeal an approval /denial decision.
A section has also been added to the draft ordinance, Section 8107-
1.7.2 which allows the Director to defer a decision of an
application for a second dwelling to the Planning Commission.
