To maintain a CRS Class 7 rating, updated building requirements are needed to raise floor elevations in Special Flood Hazard Areas for regular construction and manufactured homes to federal standards. In Chapter 18.08 Definitions, §§18.08.540 and 18.08.545 the definitions for Class I and II Accessory Structures need to be clarified to reflect the intent and enforcement practice that an accessory structure is restricted to height or square footage limitations. Some have argued that the current language requires an accessory structure to exceed both height and size limits to be in violation of the code. Chapter 18.124, Article III. Conditional Use Permits for Large Family Day Care Homes is proposed to be deleted in its entirety because state law (SB 234 of 2019) pre-empts local regulations and requires large family day care homes to be treated as permitted uses. The Master Fee Schedule is also proposed to be amended to: (1) Clarify that hourly rates for water service replacement and damage costs also apply to removal and replacement of meters for retesting requested by the consumer, and (2) Update water meter models. These current costs (last updated in 2011) now include radio telemetry technology for electronic meter reading. This change is proposed to go into effect July 1, 2022.
