Excellent, Tim. That's tenific work Yes, I'd love to have the updates as you generate them. It's interesting that the original
adoption of the LDC is not included in LaserFiche. I wonder if we can find a copy of the LDC as it was originally adopted
so that it could be added to LF, although no doubt that's what you're doing with all of the ordinances that aren't in LF -
looking for copies you can scan in. Thank you for doing this, Tim.

Subject: Land Development Code
Frank,
Going back to your request about the Land Development Code (LDC) history - attached are my research notes on
ordinances amending the LDC. (It's just a simple spreadsheet I put together, so please forgive any clerical or
formatting errors.) I thought the notes may help you as the LDC is revised. I'll work off this to get the code changes
into Laserfiche. Some of the more recent ordinances (going back to 2003) we have already imported into Laserfiche.
One of the columns in the attached spreadsheet is called 'Code In LF', and I put either 'included' or 'not included' -
those that say 'not included' I'll try to locate the actual code change and get them into Laserfiche. Those that say
'Included' are in Laserfiche, under the ordinance.
I tried to be as complete as possible - I went through the LDC and gathered all of the ordinances listed, and also
searched a couple of other places to find additional ordinances not noted in the actual LDC. There were a number that I
found that hadn't been listed in the LDC. However, it's possible that I may have missed some - I'll keep a look out as
I begin trying to locate the actual code change documents, in case any were missed. Finally, please note that one tab of
the spreadsheet is ordered by ordinance number, and another by section of the LDC.
Please let me know if there' s anything else I can do to help. In the meantime, let me know if you'd like me to forward
you the spreadsheet as I update it. (> 1..\\\ t=Dr- \==-. 01 f\ t

MEETING
INFORMA TION
DA TE: December 17, 2002
TOWN
OF
MARANA
AGENDA ITEM: IX. B. 1
TO:
Mayor and Council
FROM:
Joel D. Shapiro, Planning Director
SUBJECT:
PUBLIC HEARING: Ordinance No. 2002.28 and Resolution No. 2002-145 - Proposed
amendment to the Land Development Code of the Town of Marana, by adding
SECTION 05.11.08 MIXED-USE ZOl\TE, to the Land Development Code and,
declaring Title 5 as amended a public record.
DISCUSSION:
Staff has been working on the creation ofthe Mixed-Use Zone for the purpose of creating a
district to promote and regulate existing low density mixed uses in areas ofthe Town where
public facilities and utilities may be limited. The intent of this district is to encourage
orderly growth in semi-rural areas, as well as provide for semi-rural residential uses. In
addition, this zone is intended to allow limited commercial and industrial development
where appropriate and designed to be compatible or provide the appropriate buffers where
potentially incompatible uses are proposed with the surrounding uses. This zone is to be
located only where existing mixed-uses are historically located and the area is transitioning
into a more intensive use area.
Staff has been working with the neighbors in the Tangerine Water Group area to create a
new zoning district, which would allow for the expansion and development of their
properties in a residential and commercial fashion. Staff has provided a comprehensive list
of permitted, accessory and conditional uses for the new zoning district. The new district
provides for a wide range of uses that may be developed in the area.
Because of the lack of infrastructure in the area, staff finds that the development of the area
will be directly affected by the installation of the necessary infrastructure to support future
development. The permitted uses provide opportunities for continued residential as well as
establishing new and/or expansion of existing businesses currently located in the area.
The last use section addresses uses that may be allowable depending on the location and
adjacent uses. These are the Conditional Uses and consist of uses that mayor may not be
appropriate for a site. Any of these uses, will require a public hearing before the Planning
Commission under the provisions of the Conditional Use process.
The draft includes specific Performance and Development Standards that apply to
developments in the MU-l zone. Staff has tried to be thorough in the categories and
address potential impacts, conflicts and compatibility that may go along with allowing the
mix of residential and commercial use. Most of the categories speak for themselves, but
the following should be highlighted:
.-.
· Performance Standards - in order to get the potential mix of uses and provide for a safe
and healthy environment, performance standards have been provided. These standards
provide for the multiple uses on a single parcel as long as minimum standards are met.
We have also included outdoor storage, and general nuisance guidelines.
. General Development Standards - this section addresses the basic standards for
developing or splitting a site. This includes minimum lot area, width and depth, as well
as the necessary setbacks, lot coverage, building separation, building height and animal
keeping. So that a development can be designed and developed in a manner compatible
with, and complimentary to existing and future development in proximity to the project
site.
. Signs - sign standards are hereby established to promote a quality visual appearance
throughout the Mixed-Use Zone; to allow individual businesses to clearly identify
themselves and the goods and services offered; to create a unique environment to attract
visitors; to safeguard and enhance property values; to reduce potential hazards to
motorists and pedestrians; and to eliminate excessive and confusing sign displays.
. Screening - to create an attractive environment and visually screen land uses that are
not fully compatible
It is anticipated that after the Town Council adoption of the Mixed-Use Zone, that a Town-
initiated rezoning of the Tangerine Water Group area will occur, changing the current
zoning designation of "C" (large lot zone) to the MU-l (Mixed-Use) Zone. All new
development must conform to grading, parking, landscaping and other standards, as
required by the Town of Marana Land Development Code.
At the November 13, 2002 the public hearing before the Planning Commission on this
proposed amendment they recommended unanimously approval with one additional change.
This was to move "Churches, synagogues, and other places of worship" from Conditional to
Permitted.
---
RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mixed-Use Zone for inclusion into TITLE 5 -
Zoning and recommends that the amendments be adopted and that the Council approve
Ordinance No. 2002-28, amendments to TITLE 5.
SUGGESTED MOTION:
I move to approve Ordinance 2002.28 and Resolution 2002-145 declaring Title 5 amended
a public record.
