Staff requests the City Council review the draft ordinance and take public comment ISSUE ANALYS As mentioned above, this ordinance amendment was initiated by staff in response to concerns raised by residents. Since these concerns were raised, staff surveyed other communities regarding their standards for parking and storing passenger vehicles in residential districts. The results of the survey are provided in the table on the next page. Staff's research found that the techniques used to regulate this issue vary by community. As a result, there is no "right way" to address this issue. Rather, it is up to each local government to determine the appropriate standards for their community. However, it is important to note that there are several common components to the parking regulations designed to limit the number of vehicles on individual residential properties. These common components include: standards related to the ownership, licensing, the type of surface on which the vehicles are parked or stored and the setbacks. With this information, staff crafted the attached draft ordinance. The proposed ordinance would apply to all types of vehicles in both urban and rural residential property. Under the ordinance, the maximum number of licensed and operable vehicles parked or stored outdoors on any residential property could not exceed eight (8) vehicles per dwelling unit. These vehicles must be owned by and for the exclusive use of the owner or occupant of the dwelling unit.
