Public Hearing
1. Hold a Public Hearing and consider a recommendation to the City Council
amending Zoning Ordinance 2001-48, Article 8, Section 8.5 (Certificates
of Occupancy and Compliance); to provide procedural regulations for
certificate of occupancy requirements. ZC2010-06
Fire Marshal Seddig stated that the Zoning Ordinance does not clearly define or imply
that a new Certificate of Occupancy is required when changing new ownership or
changing the use. During annual inspections, and/or public safety issues, Staff may
determine that a change of ownership has taken place, resulting in an outdated
Certificate of Occupancy . The current ordinance addresses new construction or change
of use, and not change of ownership.
A major focus of the change is to add the statement that any change in ownership of an
existing use requires a new Certificate of Occupancy.

Mr. Lancaster stated that if there is a change in ownership, and the business did not stop,
the architectural design, or off-street parking is grandfathered. However, inspections by
the Fire Marshal, Building Inspections, and Planning Department will determine if all
codes are in compliance and that such change does not result in any greater hazard to the
public safety or welfare.
Fire Marshal Seddig stated that when there is a change of use on a Certificate of
Occupancy there may be self-imposed hardship. The use may require additional fire laws
or building codes that the previous use did not require.
Chairman Johnston opened the Public Hearing. With no one approaching the
Commission, Chairman Johnston closed the Public Hearing.
A motion was made by Commissioner Jordan, and seconded by Commissioner Dahl, to
recommend approval to the City Council an amendment to Zoning Ordinance No. 2001-
48, Article 8, Section 8.5 (Certificates of Occupancy and Compliance); to provide
procedural regulations for certificate of occupancy requirements. ZC 2010-06. Motion

Parker Road and approximately 1/2 mile west of Country Club Road. ZC
