Public Hearing Opened Mayor Rose opened the Public Hearing at 7:16 p.m. to consider amending the
Riverside Municipal Code repealing and replacing "Title IV: Land Use" with a
new Unified Development Ordinance (UDO.
The goal of the Unified Development Ordinance is to have a cohesive code that
implements the vision set forth by the approved Master Plan. It is the intent of
the UDO to set perimeters, regulations, and policies regazding development to
insure that the Master Plan's long range plan is implemented on a development
by a development basis. The staff feels that the regulations proposed
accomplish this by imposing regulations that the citizens and stakeholders of the
community stated they desired through the Master Planning Process.
Additions, corrections, and alterations are being made almost on a daily basis on
the document. The document (UDO) has been or is in the process going through
reviews by interested parties, including the Department of Public Safety, the
Building Official, Legal counsel, the Planning & Zoning Commission, the Boazd
of Aldermen, as well as the City's Municipal Code publisher Sullivan
Publications.
Mike Duffy, Shafer, Kline and Warren have been compiling, analyzing and
drafting, the new UDO. Mike made a presentation to the Board and public
stating the changes made to the City Municipal Code.
Districts I-2, MH and Agriculture have been removed. Pole and roof signs have
been removed from the code. Accessory stmctures will have a 10'-15' setback
and 900 square feet. There will be no metal facades and no carports.
The significant changes include an application for appeals, lot lines and patio
homes. A lot split application permit for procedures and regulations is required.
Under animal regulations it will be stated the total animals that can be at a
residence. Pazks and open space and fees are more significant changes.
Alderman Super asked about existing carports. Mike said they will remain as
they are. Mike said anyone requesting a carport in the future can appeal to the
Board of Zoning Adjustment for a solution.

incorporated into the final document.
