A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE ISSUANCE OF A REVOCABLE PERMIT
FOR INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE OF LANDSCAPING IN THE PUBLIC
RIGHT -OF -WAY ALONG 3911 OUTLOOK BOULEVARD
ISSUE
Should City Council authorize the issuance of a revocable permit for the installation and
maintenance of landscaping in the public right -of -way along 3911 Outlook Boulevard?
RECOMMENDATION
Approval of this Resolution.
BACKGROUND
Kyle and Penny Schultz, owners of the property located at 3911 Outlook Boulevard have
requested a revocable permit for the use of public right -of -way to satisfy all or part of the
Landscape Performance Standards. The entire 10 -foot landscape setback is on public
right -of -way and an additional 5 feet will be landscaped.
The City Landscape Ordinance (Section 17 -4 -7) allows:
On such sites where landscaping of the public right -of -way would comply with the
general intent of this section, the transfer of the area requirements, or a portion thereof,
from within the property line to the public right -of -way may be approved by the
designated review agency.
Provided three conditions are met including:
Execution of a revocable permit between the City and the Owner for the use of right -of-
way for the purpose of the landscaping.
The existing policy of the Department of Planning, the designated review agency, is to
only approve the substituting of landscaping within the public right -of -way for new
development when the following conditions are met:
1. Only along streets with a classification of collector or local and where there is a low
probably of the street requiring future widening.
2. Only when the request does not alter the continuity of the streetscape landscape
design.
3. The applicant provides a compelling reason for the request.
The Owner's reason for this request is to provide additional area between the building and
the parking and to match an adjacent property, which has obtained a revocable permit for
their landscape.
Please Note: The issuance of this revocable permit does not relieve the applicant from
meeting the landscape requirements of this section and should the City ever revoke the
permit, the applicant bears full responsibility for the relocation of the landscaping to the
setback.
The City Council may choose to review this policy at a future work session.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
