Zoning Ordinance 401, Section 21.B. as it relates to permitted used within the O, Open
Space Conservation District.
City Planner Richards reviewed the planning report as to the request, noting that the request
stemmed from the Autumn Hills park shelter project and preparation. He noted previous
amendments to this ordinance section removed provisions for park and recreational facilities and
left O zoned areas as holding zones for newly annexed or undeveloped land. Richards noted that
the Planning Commission should consider a public hearing in the future to amend Ordinance 401
sections for park related used. As to the current amendment, the amendment is to allow municipal
parks and recreational facilities, structures and buildings as a permitted use within the open space
conservation district.
