After consideration of ministerial and quasi-judicial review procedures in the course of their work the DAC recommends the attached code revisions for Planning Commission and City Council review and consideration. Specifically, the proposed Development Code text amendments would double the size of development sites eligible for consideration under the MDS standards and expand the Applicability standards at Section 5.15-110(A)(3)(a-d) to include all Commercial, Industrial, Medium and High Density Residential Zoning Districts in the list of zones where qualifying projects may submit for ministerial review procedures. If the proposed Development Code text amendments are adopted, developers may request to submit developments approximately one acre in size under ministerial review procedures.
