� Excerpts of Decatur City Plan Commission <br /> Cal No. 04-51 Petition of DANE C. BRAGG, Assistant City Manager, <br /> Economic and Urban Development to amend the City of <br /> Decatur Zoning Ordinance (Ord. #3512, as amended) <br /> Ms. Suzan Stickle gave the following recommendation of staff: <br /> The current City of Decatur Zoning Ordinance was adopted in May of 2002. Since the <br /> time of adoption, staff has discovered certain necessary changes, discrepancies and <br /> omissions as the new ordinance has been implemented. <br /> Section XXVIII.J.16 (Off-Premise Sign Lighting). The lighting used for off-premise <br /> signs shall not exceed "30" footcandles instead of "??". This was inadvertently left <br /> unchanged when the Ordinance was written. <br /> Section XXI.D.3 (Exceptions to Front Yard Setback Requirements-Porches and <br /> Terraces). Proposed addition to the exceptions "An existing norrconforming porch or <br /> terrace may be replaced or rebuilt to its current dimensions, provided that the replacement <br /> structure does not project into the required front yard more than eight (8) feet;" and <br /> numbering the paragraphs accordingly. <br /> Staff recommends approval of the amendments as proposed. <br /> Section XXIX.G. of the Zoning Ordinance requires Plan Commission to hold a public <br /> hearing and make recommendations to the City Council on amendments to the Zoning <br /> Ordinance. A recommendation of approval is suggested. <br /> No objectors present. <br /> It was moved and seconded (Smith/Anderson) to forward Cal. No. 0451 to the City <br /> Council with the recommendation for approval as submitted by petitioner. Motion <br /> carried unanimously. <br />
