10:00 P.M. - 10:30 P.M. Continued Discussion (Part 3) of Potential Zoning Amendments, as Follow-Up to Code Create
Body
DATE(S) OF PRIOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION OF THIS ISSUE:
Feb. 12, 2024 - The Town Council held its first discussion of the follow-up items to Code Create.
April 8, 2024 - The Town Council held a second discussion (Part 2) of the follow-up items not discussed previously.
EXPLANATION AND SUMMARY:
The Town's Zoning and Subdivision regulations were updated and adopted as Chapter 18 on Oct. 23, 2023, effective Jan. 1, 2024. The updated code can be found at https://www.viennava.gov/home/showpublisheddocument/4738/638379086972230000.
During the code update process, also known as Code Create Vienna, certain topics were identified as "pinned" items that, for various reasons, would need to be addressed after the updated Chapter 18 was adopted, and then considered by the new Town Council. It was also discussed during the Code Create process that the zoning and subdivision ordinance is a dynamic document, subject to regular review and updates.
The Town Council began reviewing and discussing the "pinned" items at a Feb. 12, 2024, work session. Staff organized the items into three different categories, according to what would be needed to make a code change: "Minor Edits," "Research Needed," and "Policy Decision." At that meeting, the Council provided guidance on some of the items.
The discussion of the "pinned" items continued at the April 8 Town Council meeting. Council provided direction on 7 of the 36 remaining "pinned" items.
The intention at the April 29 meeting is to receive guidance from the Council on as many items as possible to determine which to advance for additional zoning amendments.
Attachment 1 provides a table organized by the list of the "pinned" items that the Council did not discuss on Feb. 12 or April 8, and that staff suggests Council review on April 29.
