Consider a request for an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance, Chapter 30, Sec. 30- 21.2(e)7f, Parking Surface Materials. Administration recommended approval of an amendmentto the Zoning Ordinance,Chapter 30, Sec. 30-21.2(e)7f, Parking Surface Materials. Since the passage of the Historic District regulations, there has been a concern over whether the paving of the rear yards for commercial purposes was appropriate. The issue involves the notion that once the rear yard is paved, it is likely that a residential structure used for commercial purposes will be less attractive for future residential uses. The current regulations require that off-street parking surface materials be brushed or aggregate concrete, hot mix asphalt or masonry pavers. Grass,caleche,dirt,gravel,shell, slag and clay surfaces are not permitted. At a Joint Public Hearing held May 24,2010,the Planning Commission recommended 6:0 to approve the Zoning Ordinance amendment as follows: Sec. 30-21.2(e)7f Surface Materials. The only permitted off-street parking surface materials are brushed or aggregate concrete, hot mix asphalt, masonry pavers or pervious parking surface materials capable of accommodating vehicles up to five thousand(5,000)pounds of gross vehicle weight and that allow the growth of lawn. Grass,caleche,dirt, gravel, shell, slag and clay surfaces are not permitted.
