DEPARTMENT:  Planning and Development Services

 

ORIGINATOR:  Henry Jennings

 

EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION:  Approved by Ken Klein 8/7/25

 

PURPOSE: This ordinance proposes to amend SCC 30.28.070, 30.28.072, and 30.91N.050 and to repeal SCC 30.28.075 to increase consistency throughout Title 30 SCC and clarify criteria for expansion of nonconforming uses and structures.

 

BACKGROUND: The proposed amendments clarify that nonconforming structures may remain for the life of the structure and be improved or repaired if doing so is in full compliance with all requirements of Title 30 SCC including the fire code and critical area regulations.
