An Ordinance amending the provisions of Chapter 1243 of the Codified Ordinances relating to Planned Unit Developments (PUD) Hanson presented the first part of a two part ordinance to review to the committee. This ordinance is for an overlay district which was decided at the last meeting. The proposed ordinance will have a trade off of money for time. There will be less money up front but the process will take more time. The committee recommended the following changes. 1. Put page numbers on the ordinance. 2. Section (1) Purpose – in the first sentence “that is intended” should be replaced with “designed”. 3. Changing Section (3)(b) heading to Section (4) with the heading of “When a PUD is required”. Also to change the following Section numbers as needed. 4. Currently under Section (3) 3) should read “A multi-family residential development in which density is less than 4,000 square feet of lot area per dwelling unit”. 5. Currently under Section (3) 4) replace the word “use” with “structure”. 6. Currently under Section (3) 5) should say “Any development that requires a development agreement”. 7. Move items (a) through (g) from page 4 to page 2 under “Others”. Remove items (b), (d), and (e). The gross density in (c) should be 10.0 not 5.0. The gross square foot in (f) should be 50,000 and (g) should be 20,000. 8. Page 2 under “Procedure” staff needs to discuss if 5 business days would be enough time for review of the preliminary plan. It was discussed that maybe it should be 10 days. 9. Page 3 #6 should be removed (Projected impacts/positive and negative). 10. Page 3 #9. Should say “Concept of similar projects”. 11.

Page 3(C)(1) the first sentence should read “The City Planner shall be responsible for scheduling the conceptual project workshop at the next regularly scheduled Plan Commission meeting, including publishing a Public Meeting Notice.” 13. Discussion to create an Administrative Review Manual to give detailed requirements of the procedures of this ordinance.  2 14. Page 3(C)(2) “being scheduled” should be added after “Prior to the workshop”. 15. Page 5 (j) Step 10 – instead of “public hearing”, it should be “public meeting”. 16. Page 6 (c) The proposed Development Plan will “not place undo burden” for potable water supply… Also strike “fire protection” and replace it with “public safety”. 17. Page 6 (d) should be noted that no buyout of Greenspace is permitted. 18. Page 6 (e) needs to be outlined with the phasing. Porter suggested that this section should also include the greenspace and detention basin locations. Hanson stated this may need to be an internal discussion. 19. Page 6 (8)(a) strike “and/or intensity” and replace it with “size and use”. 20. Page 6 (10) – delete this entire section including (a) and (b). 21. Page 7 (11)(a)4. – delete this section. 22. Page 7 (11)(b) remove ‘Franklin Municipal” Discussion was held regarding the items allowed for deviations from a Development Plan of record as laid out in pages 8 through 10. They felt any deviation would require the developer to start over. They would like to take a little more time to review these sections again. The board would like to see this ordinance a little more simplified. This discussion will continue on October 20, 2014 at 6:00 p.m. since there will not be Plan Commission meeting that evening. REMINDER: PLAN COMMISSION MEETING: Monday, October 20, 2014 at 7:00 p.m. at City Hall, City Council Chambers, 118 Hillsboro Avenue.
