RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached ordinance which
amends Ordinance No. 10750 to correct a clerical error i n the number of a
new paragraph which was added to Section 17 of the Zoning Ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
On December 11, 1990, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 10750. This
ordinance added a new paragraph to Section 17, "Legal Nonconforming Uses,
Buildings and Structures," to establish criteria for granting legal
nonconforming status to certain carports that were added to the front of
the single-family residences before December 11, 1990. Due to a clerical
error, Ordinance No. 10750 indicated that the new paragraph should be
designated as paragraph L. The correct designation should have been
paragraph M. Adoption of the attached ordinance would provide the correct
designation for the new paragraph.
