Analysis
This ordinance, as substituted, amends Section 17.40.720 of the Metropolitan Code related to public notice. Mailed notice to the subject property would be required if tax records indicate a mailing address different from the address of the subject property. Properties included in the application of an overlay district, excluding planned unit developments, and properties included in an application to rezone 10 or more parcels filed by a member of Council in their official capacity would be exempt from these provisions. If the subject property is a multi-family or mobile home park, one sign would be required at each ingress/egress onto the property.
This has been approved by the Planning Commission.
