3.         PUBLIC HEARING AND FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE O2006-03 AMENDING THE ZONING ORDINANCE OF THE TOWN OF CAVE CREEK DATED JANUARY 6, 2003, BY AMENDING APPENDIX A – USE DESCRIPTIONS.

 

                        Placed on the agenda by the Planning Department, Town of Cave Creek

 

                        Public Hearing

Council Action Needed:         Motion to give First Reading of Ordinance O2006-03, an Ordinance of the Mayor and Common Council of the Town of Cave Creek, Maricopa County, Arizona, amending the zoning ordinance of the Town of Cave Creek dated January 6, 2003, by amending Appendix ‘A’ – Use Descriptions.

 

 

 

Narrative:       Following the public hearing, motion to give First Reading to Ordinance O2006-03. The proposed amendment of Appendix A – Use Descriptions of the Zoning Ordinance has been motivated by discussions held during the rewriting of the Zoning Ordinance in 2002 and the public hearing process leading to the approval of the Town of Cave Creek General Plan in 2005.  Subsequent comments and recommendations have been received from the Town Council, Planning & Zoning Commission and Board of Adjustment members as well as the general public.  The proposed changes to the ordinance represent an initial effort to reflect the community’s desires as they relate to the appropriate land uses and processes for those parcels zoned Commercial Buffer (CB), Commercial Core (CC) and General Commercial (GC).  The primary underlying theme behind the recommended changes was to emphasize those uses which would be the most compatible with the existing or anticipated uses located within a particular area as identified within the Town’s General Plan.
