PROJECT HISTORY:
The original two acre parcel was rezoned to CP-2 in 1987; a Preliminary Plan reflecting a savings &
loan and a convenience store with fuel pumps was denied. In 1995 a request for a nine bay car wash
and lube service was recommended for denial by the Planning Commission and withdrawn by the
Applicant prior to review by the Governing Body. The Planning Commission approved a Preliminary
Plan in 2001 for a Goodyear Action Tire facility; which has since expired.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN RECOMMENDATION FOR AREA:
Community Commercial Center – Commercial uses with a combined or total gross leasable area of
125,000 to 400,000 square feet serving a 3 to 6 mile radius. Uses often include general merchandise
and have two or more anchor tenants. This area is also overlaid with an Alternative Land Use Star,
which speaks of the easy accessibility to I-435 and the close proximity to Center City, lending the site
to a wide variety of possible land uses.
VICINITY ZONING PATTERN:
North: CP-2, Planned Community Commercial
Zoning District
South: 87th Street Parkway & CP-2, Planned
Community Commercial Zoning District
East:
CP-2, Planned Community Commercial

West: I-435 & CC, Planned City Center Zoning

VICINITY LAND USE PATTERN:
North: Commercial Retail – Sears Outlet
South: Low Density Residential – Private
farmstead
East:
Commercial Retail – Taco
Bell/McDonald’s Restaurants
West: City Center Core - Undeveloped
FINAL PLAN ANALYSIS:
This proposal is to construct a 3,342 square foot drive-thru restaurant directly west of the existing
Taco Bell.
The building is to be occupied by “Freddy’s Frozen Custard”, which is a Wichita-based fast casual
restaurant concept. The Lenexa store will be the sixth Freddy’s in the Kansas City metro area and is
anticipated to employ approximately eight employees at any given time. Expected hours of operation
are to be 11 a.m. to midnight every day of the week.
SITE LAYOUT:
The site consists of approximately 1.06 acres. The restaurant will be accessed from the existing
shared cross access drive with the Taco Bell and McDonald’s restaurants to the east, as well as the
Sears Outlet to the north. The private drive is accessed from Mauer Road and currently terminates at
the western property line of Taco Bell. As part of the Freddy’s project, the private drive will be
extended to allow access to Freddy’s parking lot and drive-thru aisle.
Sixty degree parking is proposed along the west side of the building. The dumpster enclosure is
located along the east side of the building within the drive-thru aisle. The dumpster is angled towards
the east to make it easily accessible for a front loader truck. Trash will be picked up during off hours
so drive-thru traffic will not be hindered.
To provide queuing, a drive aisle has been provided along the south end of the building and wraps
around to the east side to gain access to the pick-up window. The UDC requires drive-thru
restaurants to provide a minimum of six spaces measured from the order box plus an additional four
vehicle queue spaces from the pick-up window with the length of each queuing space being 20 feet.
The queuing meets current code.
The UDC requires a 50-foot paving/building setback along 87th Street Parkway. A 25-foot deviation is
being requested to match and maintain the setbacks already established along 87th Street Parkway
by the existing restaurants to the east. Reductions of up to 50% of the required paving/building
setback may be considered by the Planning Commission. Staff supports maintaining the existing
paving setback and therefore recommends approval of the requested deviation.
LANDSCAPE AND BUFFERS:
The perimeter planting along 87th Street Parkway and the north bound I-435 ramp is in compliance
with the intent of the landscape regulations.
A deviation in the paving setback along the north property line is being requested to allow a reduction
in the perimeter planting depth along the north property line. When property lines abut a shared
private drive, a paving setback of 20 feet is required as measured from the property line and the
center line of the driveway easement. The applicant proposes to mitigate the reduction in planting
area depth with the use of increased plant material; staff could support a reduction to a minimum of
16 feet.
The retaining walls along the east and south sides of the building will be of a matching material as to
the existing retaining wall along Taco Bell’s west property line.
ARCHITECTURAL COMPATIBILITY:
The building is a mix of brick, stone and E.I.F.S. material, with a “Pac-Clad” aluminum roof. Freddy’s
signature red & white vinyl awning wraps the front elevation and two sides. The trash enclosure is
primarily brick with t capped with stone corners. Exterior lighting consists of red colored goose neck
styled wall mounted lights. The building has an outdoor covered seating area to the south side
consisting of stone and E.I.F.S. columns and a wrought iron gate.
SIGN PROGRAM:
The proposed ice cream cone shaped facade signs and letters comply with the UDC. Separate sign
permit approval is required prior to the installation of any signage.
FIRE DEPARTMENT REQUIREMENTS:
All access and drive lanes shall be constructed with heavy-duty asphalt to accommodate heavy fire
apparatus. Traffic lane widths shall be verified in both directions using a SU-30 traffic template. Fire
lanes and curbs as determined by the Fire Department shall be painted and posted to ensure access
and maneuverability for emergency traffic.
FINAL PLAN RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of the Final Plan including the deviations for the paving/building
setbacks along the north and south property lines as described in the Analysis section of the report.

OWNER:
Westside Family Church
PROJECT HISTORY AND BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
In 2004, Final Plans were approved for the first phase of Westside Family Church. Phase 1 consisted
of the north 18.71 acres with a 70,000 square foot building, including a sanctuary, activity rooms,
multipurpose room, auditorium, administration offices and classrooms. The overall plan showed a
one and two-story church facility approximately 168,300 square feet in size, including a 2,200 seat
sanctuary, classrooms, activity rooms, multi-purpose room, auditorium, administration offices, and
outdoor play and athletic courts. A total of 1,592 parking spaces were to be provided at completion.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN RECOMMENDATION FOR AREA:
Public & Open Space – Existing city, county, or state owned properties consisting of either public
buildings or open space.
VICINITY ZONING PATTERN:
North: CP-2, Planned Community
Commercial Zoning District
South: AG, Agricultural Zoning District
East:

West: K-7 Right-of-Way
VICINITY LAND USE PATTERN:
North:

Shopping Center
South: Vacant - Undeveloped
East:

West:
K-7 Highway
REVISED FINAL PLAN ANALYSIS:
The Master Plan for Westside Family Church includes a total of 34 acres. Phase II is to consist of a
one story 19,775 square foot building addition, for an overall total of 89,779 square feet. The addition
will provide for additional worship space on the main floor of the building and revised associated
parking.
SITE LAYOUT:
Phase I of the development was designed as a stand-alone project with regard to setback, buffer,
parking, open space and stormwater requirements. This was to ensure compliance if Phase II was
never built. With Phase II, the property is being replatted to incorporate sufficient land to allow the
development to continue to meet code requirements.
Although the overall parking count will be reduced as a result of the new building addition, the parking
continues to meet code requirements.
LANDSCAPE AND BUFFERS:
The landscape plans show a continuation of the required landscape adjacent to Highway 7 right-ofway and is compatible with the previously approved landscape plan for the entire site.
ARCHITECTURAL COMPATIBILITY:
The proposed church addition will continue to reflect the modern architectural style of the facility. The
building materials and colors remain the same with the use of terra cotta colored brick veneer on the
lower levels and entry, with lighter buff colored stucco (E.I.F.S.) panels on the upper levels with dark
brick veneer and light cast stone used as accents. Curtain wall windows ensure ample light to the
interior. No additional signage is proposed with the new building addition.
FIRE DEPARTMENT REQUIREMENTS:
Existing fire hydrants and required fire flows shall provide coverage for building expansion and
additional square footage as determined in the 2006 International Fire Code, Appendix B & C. All fire
protection systems, sprinkler systems, and alarm systems shall be extended throughout the areas of
the building expansion. Fire lanes and curbs as determined by the Fire Department shall be painted
and posted to ensure access and maneuverability for emergency traffic.
REVISED FINAL PLAN RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of the Revised Final Plan as described in the Analysis section of the
report:
FINAL PLAT ANALYSIS:
Phase I of the development was designed as a stand-alone project. In order for the site to continue
to meet code requirements, i.e. building and paving setbacks, the property is being replatted and
complies with city requirements.
FINAL PLAT RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of the Final Plat.

Community Development and Parks and Recreation to prepare a plan for the street tree planting in
conjunction with the plan for the landscape/fence buffer to be approved by the city and installed by
the developer. The developer will additionally need to prepare a cost estimate for the proposed
planting and establish a Letter of Credit in favor of the city to cover the cost of completing the planting
should for any reason the developer becomes disassociated with the project.

LOCATION:
15140 West 77th Street, in the R-1, Residential Single-Family Zoning District
APPLICANT:
David Herron of Herron + Partners
OWNER:
Lance Schelhammer
PROJECT HISTORY:
The existing home was built in 1984 and is located within the Twilight Acres Subdivision.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN RECOMMENDATION FOR AREA:
Suburban Residential defined as low density detached single-family housing not exceeding a gross
density of 3.5 dwelling units per acre.
VICINITY ZONING PATTERN:
North: R-1, Residential Single-Family

South: R-1, Residential Single-Family

West:
Single-family residential – Twilight
Acres Subdivision, 2nd Plat
GENERAL NEIGHBORHOOD CHARACTERISTICS:
This area is primarily single-family residential. Most of the homes are on lots greater than half acre in
size. West 77th Street is classified as a local street.
ANALYSIS:
The applicant is requesting a deviation from Section 4-1-C-5-C-3 of the UDC, Architectural Design
Standards, specifically roof design. This section states:
“The pitch of a roof shall be at least 3 in 12, and the roof eaves shall extend at least 12
inches beyond the wall of the dwelling unit on the 2 longer sides. A roof with lesser
pitch and/or lesser eaves may be approved by the Planning Commission.”
In 1992, the City revised the Subdivision Regulations and included minimum design standards that
addressed architectural features such as exterior surfaces, the inclusion of a garage or carport, and
roof design. These standards were meant to require design continuity and to assure quality
construction.
According to the tax assessor’s information, the subject house was built in 1984, pre-dating the city
regulations relative to roof pitch. The applicant proposes to enlarge an existing screened-in porch
that is located adjacent to the garage. The existing roof pitch does not comply with the 3 in 12 pitch
requirement. Based on the existing roof configuration and the applicant’s desire to extend the
existing roof over the enlarged screened-in porch, they are requesting a deviation to the 3 in 12 pitch
requirement. The deviation they are requesting is to continue the 2 in 12 pitch. The applicant has
stated that the 3 in 12 pitch would cause the new roof to actually be higher than the existing ridge of
the house. Continuing the 2 in 12 pitch will provide for architectural compatibility while also not
obstructing existing roof vents. Plans provide for the roof to be covered with asphalt shingles that are
compatible with the existing house and neighboring development.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends APPROVAL of this request for a deviation in roof pitch as described in the
Analysis section of this report.

APPLICANT PRESENTATION:
Andrea Powell owner of Bean Babies Day Care, located at 9248 Noland Road addressed the
Commission. Ms. Powell stated her sister comes to her house and they operate the day care
Monday through Friday from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm, with no weekend activity. They have designated
outside times, they try to get out in the morning and again in the afternoon, weather permitting. They
have a state license to have a maximum of 12 children, who are categorized into infants, 18 months
up to kindergarten age and then up. They do not take school age children as they do not like to mix
the different age groups so they keep with infants and toddlers. They do pre-school activities during
the day with the older children so they have some curriculum. The kids are all in one area during the
day and have supervision at all times. The fire marshal and health department come in yearly for
inspections and they have annual state background checks.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Planner Gable stated that Ms. Powell has been at this address since October of 2013. She recently
moved from Overland Park and the Overland Park codes are different from Lenexa and she was
unaware of the permitting process until a fire inspection was conducted. There were no fire
violations and there have been no complaints registered against her. There are no other Special
Use Permits in the vicinity. Staff recommends approval of the permit.

A public hearing to consider the advisability of adopting amendments to the Unified
Development Code specifically relating to Temporary Structures.
STAFF PRESENTATION:
Administrator Tilton addressed the Commission. Ms. Tilton stated that staff continues to make
revisions to the UDC in order to address new or changing trends in development. In addition, staff is
continually reviewing the codes to ensure that the regulations are appropriate/compatible or
consistent with those around the community. The proposed amendments before the Commission
relates to temporary structures and temporary uses, what are considered temporary uses and
structures and how such uses or structures are different from other more permanent uses and
structures. In addition, staff took the opportunity to specifically address portable storage containers.

MEETING MINUTES
JANUARY 6, 2014
Since the packet was distributed some concerns were raised regarding the deletion of temporary
banking facilities. It was not staff’s intention to no longer allow them, rather looking to generalize
temporary uses and structures. That is the reason the sales and real estate temporary structures
were modified to be general to address all temporary uses and structures. Staff also divided the
different types. Staff would like to get comments on the changes and look at temporary banking
facilities to make sure that staff is not excluding them in a way that would be detrimental. There are
reasons for having temporary banking structures that staff was unaware of until this afternoon. From
a procedural standpoint staff asked the legal department to follow up prior to having the public
hearing to explain the options.
Planner Gable stated this has been a difficult section to tackle. Staff listed a lot of items to add and
needed to further define some of the sections. The “PODS” are portable temporary structures for
storage. The word POD was not used in the update because it is an actual, official name. They are
something that is very difficult to enforce. Staff worked with enforcement on them; people complain
about them but currently the way code is written there is not any teeth to go back to cite them. She
stated she looked at several ordinances of the surrounding metro area and Googled temporary
structures for other cities. The language that was used is a mix of everybody else’s and she
believes it is good when it comes to PODS. One concern was what the trigger is to make these
things go away. She tried to attach them to a building permit, for PODS they agreed they are
allowed as a right, unless given a complaint or someone sees it and that is when the clock starts
ticking. Commercial and Industrial are not currently allowed and not going to open that box to allow
them other than the fact that they do know they are seasonal. She stated that Past and Presents,
the retail store at Lackman and 87th have them at Christmas time they need that additional storage
for seasonal items. They agreed to allow the PODS for commercial storage for seasonal purposes.
Administrator Tilton stated those would be limited to 60 days per calendar year.
Planner Gable stated schools were looked at, there seems to be a lot of questions regarding them
for classrooms. As a policy staff has not allowed them because once allowed where do you stop?
Temporary for a school or classroom could be indefinite. She stated she did not know how to control
it so they agreed to go back and is now defined and gave them stipulations for control and set a time
limit. They would go through a final plan and a development agreement. That way staff can make
that classroom go away or have some control over it versus being there for ten years. She stated
the definition section was tweaked. Real estate offices were not real clear, they wanted to divide it
and make it construction trailers or sales offices. They have defined them differently. One instance
was when LifeTime Fitness was under construction they wanted to put up a sales trailer to sell
memberships. Staff was not sure how to do that because you have to think about when you allow
something like that you have electrical permits and restrooms. There are a lot of things that come
along with that, for instance parking, do you allow gravel, those are things that most people don’t
think about when they want a trailer. Staff realized there are spots that were missed and should look
at. She stated she would allow Sean to expound on the procedure.
Attorney McLaughlin stated there are two options. The first is to ask if anyone is present for the
public hearing, if no, then the Commission can discuss the item amongst themselves and make a
motion to continue and discuss at a date certain or open the Public Hearing and do a motion to
continue the hearing to a date certain and move on without closing the Public Hearing. He assumed
the discussion would take place without a Public Hearing and continue the item to a date certain.

JANUARY 6, 2014
PLANNING COMMISSION DISCUSSION:
Commissioner Horine stated he would like a definition of a POD or storage container versus a trash
container. If someone is working on their house and have a trash container, is that a POD or
storage container.
Planner Gable stated that is a dumpster that does not fall under a storage container. Staff gave a
POD dimensions and it is 16 feet in length, 8 feet in width and height. They tried to put in language
as far as…..
Commissioner Horine stated they might put these in as part of a re-roof and it could be there for a
while and is that considered storage. There is probably a difference there.
Planner Gable stated that is not storage.
Commissioner Horine stated a POD being a legal name, those are the kinds of things someone
moves from someplace to the house and then they store it when they are moving. He stated when
his son was getting ready to do this; you can rent POD sections that add onto each other. You
attach different sections to it so it looks like one, big, long POD. Is that one, two or three, are you
clarifying that it has to be a certain length. The other concern was on the temporary sales office that
is at a residential area. He has not seen those and is not sure what that is.
Commissioner Poss stated it depends on where they are at construction, if they had a trailer it would
be pre-model home as they are usually in the garage.
Planner Gable stated that is a good example of use versus structure. A sales office is inside of a
model home that is a temporary use; a model home is an allowed structure.
Commissioner Horine asked if staff had spoken to anybody in the business community that does this
type of thing as to whether this change is going to be detrimental or a good idea for a business. We
need to know if this is going to increase their costs exorbitantly and be detrimental.
Planner Gable stated that Overland Park codes specifically say “No PODS in residential”. She sees
them in her neighborhood, so they must not be enforcing them. The codes she looked at addressed
them in one fashion or the other, whether they allowed them or not, but they did address them with
conditions or not at all. It is a regulation situation.
Administrator Tilton asked if Commissioner Horine was thinking about the temporary sales and
construction site offices in terms of have we talked to developers. She wants to be sure to get all
questions answered when this comes back before the Commission.
Commissioner Horine stated he was thinking the construction sites where everyone throws up a
construction trailer.
Commissioner Horine stated that reading through it he does not know if he has a particular problem
with it but believes input from the community that it will affect is needed.

Commissioner King stated she sees PODS in neighborhoods periodically; she has never had an
issue with them as they are temporary. Job trailers are a necessity. She stated she remembers
when Health Ridge was built they leased space in a shopping center to sell memberships. She does
not know how you would differentiate having a sales office versus a construction trailer on a
construction site.
Planner Gable stated you could do that, one is allowed for construction and the other allowed for
sales. You could use a trailer to do the sales it will be a different use and the timeframe would
control that, tag it on to the building permit.
Administrator Tilton stated they tried to differentiate one kind to an active building permit versus one
that is not tied to that permit but is tied to something else to get them out of that temporary situation
as quickly as possible.
Commissioner King asked if the city does not allow temporary classrooms.
Planner Gable stated it has been policy to not allow them. There was one that was allowed at Mill
Creek School that went to the Planning Commission. There has never been a procedure to approve
them and Mill Creek was the last one with Final Plan and it had a defined time that it was allowed.
There were no definitions or anything to regulate them with. With this they can be allowed as long
as the criteria are met and have a development agreement.
Commissioner King stated she sees where schools may need to have temporary classrooms for a
while until they get things figured out.
Commissioner Poss stated he has had temporary construction trailers where he has had to get
separate permits to address anchor points in the event of a gust of wind as it could blow it over,
utilities and so on and so forth. Temporary Sales offices are more of a sticky situation, since it is the
general public coming into a construction site there is a lot of liability there. Also, ADA would need to
be addressed; he has had to build some massive ramps before.
Administrator Tilton stated they would need a permit, staff is saying that the removal needs to be
within a period of time when the TCO or CO is issued. She stated that can be clarified.
Commissioner Poss asked what temporary banking structures are for.
Administrator Tilton stated there have been situations where a bank has wanted to go ahead and
start operating and be in business and is working through or has received their charter and they
have to be operating within a certain period of time. In many cases they can go into an existing
structure but in areas, especially in our western community where there are not as many vacant
buildings they may want to locate in an area that is underdeveloped and in that case having a
temporary facility in a temporary structure is what we were looking at. Ms. Tilton asked if Chairman
Oppliger would like to elaborate on that as he has worked with this type of situation in his career.
Chairman Oppliger stated that he brought this question up to the staff. There are several different
reasons for them to have a temporary buildings; the De Novo branch, never having been in business

before, a new charter, they would need a temporary facility. They would usually pick a double wide
facility and they have to be more than anchored down, they have to have footings, there are Federal
Regulations for temporary banking facilities as well. They may be there for longer than two years to
get through their chartering process, get open and get their new structure up and running. There are
specific requirements to get them down low for ADA because of the drive in window being on the
same level as the interior floor of the bank. It is a long hard process that they have to go through
and it would definitely include a building permit. It is not like a construction trailer that is just brought
in and in 9 months they build the structure and then they are gone. The city needs that protection
that they can move this process along because you really don’t want a temporary facility there for
three or four years. Depending on construction and all the other things going on with construction it
can take a while. Everything goes in cycles and it may be ten years before we ever see another
charter bank in Johnson County. It is a long and expensive process for the bank, but it needs to be
addressed in our ordinances and not allowed by use, it needs to be a special use.
Commissioner Katterhenry stated he has seen the temporary banks; you can actually go online and
order a temporary bank and they do sit there for some time.
Chairman Oppliger stated that we need to make sure that they are done to our normal building code;
it is almost like a permanent building, but not really. The banks do not want the temporary structures
there indefinitely; they want to be in their own building.
Commissioner Katterhenry asked how the storage containers fall under this that may be 8 x 10 x 40
feet. On construction sites the subs will bring them in to store their electrical materials and such. He
asked if they fall under this same ordinance.
Administrator Tilton stated with respect to the sizes, the temporary construction office are not limited
to the same size as the temporary storage containers.
Commissioner Burch asked why they separated the bank how it was; at some point someone
thought it was necessary to single them out.
Commissioner Horine stated when Lenexa first had their growth spurt there were a lot of banks that
came to open and had the temporary facilities. Country Hill, one next to Tanner’s, one on 95th
Street, etc. It seemed like this was the place to be, the construction area. There were a lot of
temporary trailers. He thought that may have been the reason.
Recording Secretary Johnson stated that the temporary banking facilities were specifically called out
in 2000 by an ordinance amendment because of the temporary facility that United Bank of Kansas
on Woodland Road wanted to install prior to the permanent structure being built. Because of the
strict banking regulations the temporary structures are limited to the length of time they can be used.
Therefore, staff made the amendment to the ordinance to allow the temporary banking structures by
special use permit in the zones in which banks are an allowed use. The previous ordinance was a
special use permit for any type of land use, where this one specifically called out banking facilities.
Commissioner Hoffman stated he dealt with a customer that had stored hazardous materials in a
temporary storage for years and years and years. It had its own fire suppression system. It was
way less expensive to do that than to actually build the facility in which to store the material. He

asked how something like that would fall into this category.
Administrator Tilton stated that staff would look into that type of situation.
Commissioner Hoffman stated that his personal preference would be to minimize the time period in
which they are allowed. When you put these things in the driveway you have created more traffic on
the street because now both cars that belong in the garage are not able to get in it. He would hope
we try to minimize the use of PODS on the driveway as much as possible. With the schools he is
more inclined to allow temporary classrooms. The schools have difficult times with finances. It
makes sense to allow them for a year or two. We are almost creating hurdles for schools. A lot of
the schools have enough ground that you could put a temporary structure behind the main structure
and hardly anybody would be able to see them. If they sit there for two or three years in order to get
a bond issue passed, it is really hurting anyone? It would help them to get things in order.
Chairman Oppliger stated that is a good point, he recently saw some at Blue Valley Schools. Mill
Creek many years ago had some. Perhaps if we could invite one or more of the school districts to
talk with staff or come to the public hearing to give some input on the subject and nature of the
facilities. The structures come under a lot of safety codes. He believes staff needs to solicit their
input.
Commissioner Katterhenry stated there are places in Florida that have had these structures up for at
least five years.
Commissioner Hoffman stated part of that is because there are bumps in the population and it may
subside in a few years and then they could remove them.
Commissioner Grunewald stated that financing may come into play as well. That could tie into the
population bump as they show up. He thought it strange to have an exact size in the ordinance, as
they may vary by a foot or a couple of inches. There may be different versions of “PODS” and
wonders if there should be an exception for the size. As it stands now, there is no give or take.
Chairman Oppliger stated that they had one at their business for a few days and then it was taken
off-site for storage.
Commissioner Poss stated while remodeling your house you get a POD in order to put your
furnishings in while the remodeling is going on. He could understand the 60 days in that instance. If
you are moving it is probably going to be there less than a week or two. If you are remodeling 60
days may not be long enough.
Chairman Oppliger stated this is a new market. What did we do before they were available? We put
our stuff in the garage or you hired a truck and had it moved to storage. This is a convenience by
having it next to the house. They can take it off site and store the PODS at another location of inside
storage. It is a new convenience that needs to be limited.
Commissioner King stated she agrees with Commissioner Hoffman where we have an opportunity to
help the school districts that are in need. There are some schools that need temporary classrooms
in order to raise funds before additions can be made.

Commissioner Poss stated he still believes there needs to be time limits on how long the temporary
structures can stay if they are allowed for schools. He stated when he was growing up there were
temporary structures when he was in middle school and they were still there when he graduated
high school. It may even still be there today. You have to set limitations, as they are temporary in
nature, until you need it forever. The funding may never come; one has to give before the other.
Possibly a maximum of five years.
Chairman Oppliger agreed that was a good point. He stated the Commission has had some real
good discussion. He stated staff requested it be continued and asked staff if one month would be
enough to come back with the updates.
Administrator Tilton stated it might be best to give it two months to have adequate time for more
research.

Chairman Oppliger entertained a motion to CONTINUE the Public Hearing regarding amendments to
the Unified Development Code specifically relating to Temporary Structures to the March 3, 2014
