Administrative site plan approvals code amendment (Section 17.6.101)
Recommended for approval · 5-0
Repeals and replaces Section 17.6.101 so the Development Review Committee can approve listed site plan amendments, such as swapping exterior materials, small additions like awnings or patios worth no more than 5% of the building's value, and added interior floors or mezzanines in existing shells. Commissioner Geoff Dupaix asked about the change-of-use provision; the language lets the Development Services Director, with the Public Works Director, send projects back to the commission when changes are not administrative. A further version returned Sept. 3, 2025.
- Initiated by city staff
- Minor changes capped at 5% of building replacement value
