Recommendation Conduct a public hearing and, upon conclusion: (1) Offer an Ordinance amending the following, all relating to clean-up and updating of the Zoning Code, for first reading by title only and waive the full reading: (a) Chapter 18.31 (Residential Districts: "RE" Residential Estate, "RS" Residential Single Family, and "RM" Residential Multiple Family) by amending Section 18.31.020 (Land Use Regulations)relating to density for 2-family dwellings; (b) Chapter 18.40 (Development and Site Regulations) by amending Sections 18.40.010 (Antennas and Microwave Equipment; Telecommunications and Wireless Facilities) relating to permit requirements for collocation facilities; (c) Chapter 18.40 (Development and Site Regulations) by amending Section 18.40.160 (Swimming Pools) relating to filtering systems and heating equipment for swimming pools; (d) Chapter 18.40 (Development and Site Regulations) by amending Section 18.40.180 (Walls and Fences)relating to monitored electrified security fence systems; (e) Chapter 18.41 (Off-Street Parking and Loading) by amending Sections 18.41.040-A (Parking Spaces Required) relating to parking requirements for Health Clubs and Fitness Studios; and (� Chapter 18.42 (Signs) by amending Section 18.42.040 (Standards for Certain Types of Signs)relating to flag poles within the Residential Districts. (2) Authorize the City Attorney to prepare, and the City Clerk to publish the summary ordinance according to law; and (3) Find that adoption of the ordinance is, pursuant to 14 CCR 15378, exempt from environmental review, beeause the passage of the proposed ordinance is not a "projeet" according to the definition in the California Environmental Quality Act and, therefore, is not subjeet to the provisions requiring environmental review. Fiscal Impact Report to Redding City Council March 16,2023 Re: 6.1--Rezoning Application RZ-2023-00236, by the City of Redding Page 2 There is no identified fiscal impact. Alternative Action The City Council (Council) could choose not to adopt the ordinance as recommended by staff and provide staff direction to continue the public hearing to a future Council meeting. Background/Analysis Under consideration are minor clarifying amendments to the text of Title 18, Zoning, of the Redding Municipal Code (RMC). Similar amendments clarifying the text of the RMC are processed on an annual basis with the most recent amendments adopted by the City Council in June 2022. The proposed amendments are minor in nature and are primarily intended to clarify the intent of the existing regulations, provide standards for fencing, provide additional flexibility in the administration of the ordinance, and comply with Federal law. On February 28, 2023, the Redding Planning Commission recommended in a 5-1 vote that the Council approve the proposed amendments to the Redding Municipal Code. The proposed text amendments are summarized below: Section 18.31A20: Delete note regarding density not be applicable to two-family dwellings. This is a typo and is in conflict with Specific Limitation Ll. General plan density applies in all cases including two-family dwellings. Section 18.40.010: Federal law regulates the processing of telecommunication and wireless communication facilities when they are collocating on or within an existing approved tower or facility. The Zoning Ordinance currently exempts collocation facilities. In order to apply the exemption, the additional language is needed to clarify the facility would also need to comply with Federal law in regards to wireless facility siting, which also addresses proximity to residential districts. Section 18.40.160: Eliminate the construction location requirement for swimming pool filtering systems and heating equipment as new modern equipment must comply with California Building Code energy standards and thus are much guieter and do not impact adjacent neighbors as they have historically. 18.40.180: The Zoning Ordinance specifically prohibits electric fencing in residential districts, however is silent in non-residential districts. Inclusion of standards would allow monitored electrified security fence systems in non-residential districts. 18.41.040-A: Clarify the parking requirements for health clubs and fitn�ss studios. 18.42.040: Reduce the maximum height of a flag pole in residential districts from 20 feet to 16 feet as building permits are required for flag poles exceeding 16 feet per Building Division policy. This would eliminate confusion as to what necessitates a building permit. Environmental Review The passage of the propos�d ordinance is not a "project" according to the definition in the Report to Redding City Council March 16,2023 Re: 6.1--Rezoning Application RZ-2023-00236, by the City of Redding Page 3 California Environmental Quality Act and, therefore, is not subject to the provisions requiring environmental review.
