BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
Included among the 2011 Vision and Goals as adopted by the Council on May 16, 2011 was direction to
"actively enforce zoning standards on primary corridors." (C8) This task correlated to the beautification
goal, to "have attractive, welcoming streetscapes at City entrances and primary corridors. Enforce zoning
ordinances"
In response, staff proposes the 4 steps above.
Items two (2) and three (3) will be ongoing, but will begin immediately. The Council should recognize
the primary departure from current practice: Code enforcement staff will not wait for a complaint to be
received. Staff will actively review signage and other standards.
Item four (4) will be applied as applications are received.
