AGENDA ITEM NO. J.2 Item Cover Page DATE: March 26, 2024 SUBMITTED BY: Maryellen Edwards, Community Development ITEM TYPE: Ordinances AGENDA SECTION: ITEMS OF BUSINESS SUBJECT: First Reading and Public Hearing of Ordinance 2024-05, Amending Chapter 68 “Zoning Regulations” regarding public boardwalks BACKGROUND: Comprehensive Plans and Land Development Regulations are the fundamental policy tools of municipalities. Based on a review of the current Land Development Regulations, it was determined that there is no definition of a public boardwalk. The city wishes to establish this definition in relation to existing and proposed boardwalks. POLICY/PURPOSE: The purpose of the proposed ordinance is to clarify the Land Development Regulations by amending Chapter 68 "Zoning Regulations" to add a definition of public boardwalk and to include a public boardwalk as an allowed structure over water. STRATEGIC PLAN RELEVANCE: Goal 1: Foster a vibrant business community Objective 2: Implement the Economic Development Vision Bold Action 2: Update the City’s Comprehensive Plan, local ordinances, and Land Development Regulations BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS AGENDA ITEM REPORT 13

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION: The City evaluated the current Land Development Regulations and determined that a clear definition was needed to be more consistent with existing public boardwalks and to distinguish between public boardwalks and docks. The current definition of a dock states that it must be constructed on pilings and is limited in width. However, based on discussions with regulatory agencies, designs that reduce or eliminate pilings are preferred in an effort to reduce environmental impacts. Therefore, the City is recommending that a definition for a public boardwalk be established for consistency and to allow for alternative construction methods for public boardwalks over water. FUNDING: No funds are requested at this time. MOTION: I move to approve and schedule Ordinance 2024-05 for a second and final public hearing on April 16, 2024.
