Memo
Re: Ordinance 96- 07(amended) - Amending Sections 153.026, 153.028, 153.031,
153.032, 153.033, 153.212, and 153.074 of the Dublin Codified Ordinances
(Zoning Code) regarding Fitness Uses, Pet Care Services, Park and Rides,
Parking Requirements and Swimming Pool Fences (Case No. 07- 110ADM)
Request
The purpose of this Code modification is to address uses not currently provided for in the Zoning
Code, including pet care services, fitness uses and park and rides. The proposed Code
modification also proposes language to address swimming pool fences for lots with swimming
pools that have non - conforming setbacks and an existing fence.
Recommendation of Planning and Zoning Commission
The Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval of the Code changes with
modifications at its work session on November 15, 2007. The Commissioners modified the
proposed language to require outdoor pet care service to be located at least 500 feet from a
residential district or use unless a lesser distance was approved by the Commission.
City Council First Reading
This ordinance was introduced to City Council at the December 10, 2007 meeting and a revision
was requested to require a conditional use approval for park and ride transfer stations and
terminals. Additionally, fitness uses within the Community Commercial District have been made
conditional uses when larger than 15,000 square feet in gross floor area All fitness uses are
proposed as permitted uses within the Industrial Districts and as conditional uses within the
Suburban Office and Institutional District.
Description of Amendment
Pet Care Services
The proposed Code modification allows pet grooming, sitting, and training as a permitted use
within the Community Commercial District. The same uses, to include boarding, are permitted
uses in all Industrial Districts. Pet services are proposed as a conditional use within the Suburban
Office and Institutional District. Outdoor areas associated with pet care services will be required
to receive a conditional use within the Industrial Districts. All facilities must be located at least
250 feet from a residential zoning district.
Memo to City Council - Ord 96 -07 Zoning Code Amendment - Fences
December 21, 2007
Page 2
Fitness and Recreational Snorts Centers
Currently, the Zoning Code does not explicitly permit fitness - related uses. The proposed Code
modification will allow fitness - related uses as permitted uses within the Industrial Districts. They
are also a permitted use in the Community Commercial District if less than 15,000 square feet in
gross floor area and a conditional use if greater than 15,000 square feet. Conditional use approval
is required in the Suburban Office and Institutional District.
Park and Rides
This use provides parking facilities intended to facilitate transit and rideshare use. Park and rides
are proposed as a permitted use in the Community Commercial, Suburban Office and
Institutional, and the Industrial District. A change was made to require a conditional use for any
transit center or transfer station within these districts. Additionally, any buildings associated with
a park and ride must be harmonious with the architectural character of surrounding areas.
Parking Requirements for the Proposed New Uses
Parking requirements have been added for the new uses. For pet care services, one (1) space per
10 animals, plus one (1) per employee on the largest shift for pet care services (sitting and
boarding), and one (1) space per 250 square feet of gross floor area for training and grooming.
Fitness and Recreational Sports Centers will require one (1) space per 250 square feet of gross
floor area.
Swimming Pool Fences
The proposed Code modification allows swimming pools with non - conforming setbacks to be
enclosed by a fence no more than four feet high. The permitted fence may be in addition to any
other fence already located on the property.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of Ordinance 96- 07(amended) at the second reading/public hearing
on January 2, 2008.

Memo
To: Members of City Council
From: Jane S. Brautigam, City Manager
Date: December 6, 2007
Initiated By: Steve Langworthy, Director, Land Use & Long Range Planning
Re: Ordinance 95 -07, Planned Unit Development Administrative Approvals
Summary
The current Code Section 153.053(G) permits the Director of Land Use & Long Range Planning
to review "minor design modifications that are required to correct any undetected errors or that
are consistent with the purpose of the approved final development plan." The Planning and
Zoning Commission at its November 19` work session recommended to Council changes to this
language. As part of its review the Commission added further clarifications to the modification
provisions related to stormwater management facilities, requiring that the general character and
stormwater capacities be maintained; and to the provision on landscape mounds, requiring that
they maintain their screening effect if altered.
Currently, the Code imposes tight limits on modifications that may be administratively approved.
This has resulted, at times, in very minor changes being forced to go through the complete
amended final development plan process, causing unnecessary delays, as well as encumbering
the time of the Planning and Zoning Commission, applicants and the public. While it is
necessary to ensure that changes that have significant effect on a development continue to be
appropriately reviewed, the limitations of the current language do not permit sufficient latitude
for minor changes.
The proposed changes clarify some of the existing language to permit some additional flexibility
to the administrative review process. The proposed amendment would continue to prohibit any
changes to the actual development text; where specific requirements are listed. When such
changes are desired, a rezoning will still be necessary. Further, Land Use & Long Range
Planning is required to report administrative approvals so the Planning and Zoning Commission
can evaluate their nature and further refine the language for what may constitute a minor
modification.
Additions to the current language permit the Director to identify other minor modifications not
specifically listed, provided they do not alter the basic design or change any of the conditions of
approval. It also permits the Director to bring forward even minor changes if they are deemed
sufficiently important to warrant a review by the Commission.
Recommendation
Planning recommends approval of Ordinance 95 -07 at the second reading/public hearing on
January 2, 2008.

6. Planned Unit Development Administrative Approvals Administrative Request
07- 118ADM Zoning Code Amendment
Steve Langworthy there have been minor cases coming before the Commission as amended final
development plans, which may not need to be reviewed by the Commission. He said that this
Code change is trying to clarify the language to determine what really needs to be reviewed and
approved by the Commission. He said Planning will be more diligent in reporting minor
modifications as they are approved administratively and give the Commission a sense of what
type of changes are being approved. He said staff is looking for guidance to determine if and
how this process could work.
Mr. Gerber said that the process used to include a report given at the beginning of the meeting
stating what were and were not minor modifications. He said that while this type of reporting
worked it slowed down the process.
Mr. Fishman said he would like Planning to approach the Commission, so together it can be
determined if it is okay to make a decision administratively. Mr. Zimmerman was concerned
that that would slow down the application process. Mr. Langworthy said the only way the idea
would work is if Planning did not have to put a Commission packet together. Mr. Walter said
the proposed solution is good. He said he would like to put a square footage limit in place for
administrative approvals. Mr. Langworthy said he thought a percentage should be put in place
until the additional modification goes over a certain percentage.
Mr. Fishermen said he was uncomfortable with one person making a decision for the City. Ms.
Amorose Groomes said she is uncomfortable with Planning making certain decisions without
obtaining the consent of the Planning and Zoning Commission. Mr. Fishman recalled several
cases where stormwater management had been redesigned, it was approved administratively. He
said once this is changed, it looks nothing like it was intended and the Commission has no idea
the plan was modified.
Mr. Gerber said Sections 3 and 10 should be discussed because very minor things that come to
Commission do not need to be regulated by them. Mr. Walter said when water features and
signs are modified, they need to come before the Commission, but minor changes should not.
Mr. Fishman said what is being considered minor is very subjective. Ms. Amorose Groomes
said she would like to see an administrative report that lists questions and answers provided by
staff.
Mr. Gerber asked what other jurisdictions are doing in this situation. Jennifer Readler said some
municipalities do not have minor modifications codified and they are done administratively
without the guidance of the minor modification language.
Mr. Fishman said if projects can be fixed without changing the appearance he is okay with
administrative decisions.
Planning and Zoning Commission
November 15, 2007 — Minutes
Draft
Mr. Saneholtz said the people in the field need to be able to make an educated decision in
regards to the grey area. Mr. Zimmerman agreed stating that when construction begins,
adjustments to the original plans may be needed.
Mr. Walter said Sections 5 and 6 need to be changed to have similar language as the other
sections.
Mr. Fishman said he would like to see some system to determine if a change is minor or not. Mr.
Gerber said at every meeting, Planning will provide an administrative report and if staff makes a
decision on an issue which the Commission does not feel is minor, then there will be recourse.
Ms. Amorose Groomes said she was comfortable with staff making administrative decisions as
long as the Commission is presented with an administrative report.
Mr. Walter asked how many minor changes Planning reviews on a regular basis. Mr.
Langworthy said one or two in Planned Unit Developments.
Mr. Gerber read paragraph G (1)(b) and asked Mr. Gunderman why the word shall was used.
Mr. Langworthy said the word may can be used instead.
Mr. Langworthy said in the administrative report, he will bring minor issues to the Commission
because the ten percent change may have an impact. He asked if 10,000 square feet can be
added to Section 3. Mr. Fishman said an exact percentage would be better.
Mr. Langworthy asked if adding verbiage about screening would suit the Commission. Mr.
Gerber said if it is an engineering difficulty, then these things are allowed to be done. Ms.
Amorose Groomes asked Mr. Gerber to define engineering difficulty.
Barbara Cox said when plans come to the Commission, they are not an exact depiction of what
the project will be. She said if there is a change during the Commission review, the plans may
be changed in a way which will affect the calculations. Ms. Cox said that at the point of
construction, the applicant should have done enough research to know what problems they will
face during construction. She said the Engineering department will never make major changes
without first approaching the Commission.
Motion and Vote
Mr. Gerber made a motion to approve this Administrative Request to modify Zoning Code
Sections 153.053 (G). The motion was seconded by Mr. Zimmerman. The vote was as follows:
Mr. Walter, yes; Ms. Amorose Groomes, yes; Mr. Fishman, yes; Mr. Saneholtz, yes; Mr.
Zimmerman, yes; and Mr. Gerber, yes. (Approved 6 — 0.)

SECTION I - CASE INFORMATION
6. Planned Unit Development Administrative Approvals Administrative Request
07- 118ADM Zoning Code Amendment
PLANNING REPORT
Proposal: Amendment to the City of Dublin Zoning Code, Chapter
153, § 153.053, Procedures
Request: Review and recommendation for approval to City Council
for amended language for Code Section 153.053.
Applicant: City of Dublin.
Planning Contact: Steve Langworthy, Director.
Contact Information: (614) 410 -4653; slangworthy @dublin.oh.us
Case Summary
This application will amend the procedures and requirements for approval of modifications to
final development plans for Planned Unit Developments. The amendment provides for
clarification of language describing those modifications that are deemed minor.
SECTION II - REVIEW STANDARDS
Case Procedure
The current Code Section 153.053(G) permits the Director of Land Use & Long Range Planning
to review "minor design modifications that are required to correct any undetected errors or that
are consistent with the purpose of the approved final development plan." The Commission
should review the modifications, provide input where necessary, and vote on the changes. The
draft amendments will then be forwarded to City Council for final review and approval.
Analysis
Currently, the Code imposes tight limits on modifications that may be administratively approved.
This has resulted, at times, in very minor changes being forced to go through the complete
amended final development plan process, causing unnecessary delays, as well as encumbering
the time of the Planning and Zoning Commission, applicants and the public. While it is
necessary to ensure that changes that have significant effect on a development continue to be

Case No. 07- 118ADM — Page 2 of 2
reviewed by the Commission, the limitations of the current language do not permit sufficient
latitude for minor changes.
An addition to the current language permits the Director to bring forward even minor changes if
they are deemed sufficiently important to warrant a review by the Commission.
The proposed changes would continue to prohibit any changes to the actual development text;
where specific requirements are listed and changes are desired, a rezoning will still be necessary.
Further, Land Use & Long Range Planning is required to report administrative approvals so the
Commission can evaluate their nature and further refine the language if needed.
SECTION III - RECOMMENDATION: Recommendation for Approval to City Council.
In Planning's opinion, this amendment helps clarify administrative approvals, improves service
to property owners, and provides adequate protection for those changes deemed either minor or
warranting further review. Recommendation to City Council for approval is requested.
