Item 9: Request for approval to create new Development Application Forms/Checklists by City of Meridian Planning Department: Newton-Huckabay: We have one other item and it is not a public hearing. Do we -- but we would keep the meeting open. Friedman: Yes, please. Newton-Huckabay: All right. This is a request for approval to create a new development application form checklist. Friedman: Madam Chairman, Members of the Commission, as you know, the UDC in Section 11.5.A.3.B.2 directs that the Planning Commission approve any major changes to our applications and recently the City Council did adopt a new process called a certificate of zoning compliance verification. What that is is it's simply a letter that the city planning department will now issue when we have a change of use within an existing building and there is no exterior modifications, any site modifications. Essentially, it's a faster, cheaper way for us to get a CZC out the door. So, what we have done is we have developed an application and a checklist for that process and are asking for your approval of it. Kristy did provide you with a memorandum that addresses that again. Typically if you had an office and you were coming in and you were changing from a retail space to an office space and there was an existing certificate of zoning compliance, it would require CZC modification, which has a big long checklist and it was 173 dollars I believe. The new one is, really, tell us what you're doing, look at this checklist, which is very short, we issue a letter, and it's 53 dollars. So, we are simply asking for your blessing on our new checklist and our new application. Rohm: Sounds like a good process.
