Proposed City Council Motion:
I move to override the Mayor's veto and reconsider for adoption AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF LEE’S SUMMIT, MISSOURI, CHAPTER 16, LEE’S SUMMIT PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE, BY ADOPTING REGULATIONS PERTAINING TO VEHICLE PARKING AND STORAGE REGULATIONS FOR PRIVATE PROPERTY.
Key Issues:
The Community and Economic Development Committee (CEDC) has reviewed and considered proposed amendments to vehicle parking and storage regulations within the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) and Lee's Summit Property Maintenance Codes over multiple meetings. The intent of the review was to clarify parking and storage regulations related to recreational vehicles, boats & personal watercraft, all terrain vehicles, trailers and campers. At the December 10, 2017 CEDC meeting, staff presented proposed language to incorporate within the Property Maintenance Code and was provided direction to further refine the proposed amendments and correlate the amendments with the UDO. Staff has prepared the proposed amendments to both the UDO and Property Maintenance Code and received direction from the CEDC to bring forward the proposed ordinance amendments together as parking and storage regulations are being removed from the UDO and incorporated into the Property Maintenance Code. At its meeting of February 15, 2018, the Planning Commission recommended approval of removing the regulations relating to parking and storage of vehicles from the UDO and placing them in Chapter 16 as a part of the Property Maintenance Code.
The proposed UDO amendments and Property Maintenance Code amendments should be considered together as both are correlated and in order for parking regulations to remain in effect, both amendments would need to occur together, otherwise a gap could be created where parking and storage regulations do not exist, or provisions created that could be in conflict with one another. The UDO amendments have been considered by the Planning Commission and received a recommendation of approval. The City Council will consider the UDO amendments in a public hearing first, as UDO amendments require public hearings. The Property Maintenance Code amendments have been recommended for approval by the CEDC and are presented straight to City Council for consideration.
