INTRODUCTION
This proposed ordinance adds a requirement for a construction materials storage plan to be included with plan submittals.
BACKGROUND
There have been several recent projects that have lasted longer than 180 days where the construction site becomes an
aesthetic issue for the adjacent neighborhood.
DISCUSSION
The intent of this ordinance change is to require a plan for the storage of materials related to the project so that there is less
of an impact on neighboring property owners. Any extension of a permit beyond the original 180 day period may require
additional requirements for the on -site storage of materials.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend approval of the ordinance.
PROJECT COST - BUDGET IMPACT
N/A
ACTION TO BE TAKEN
