EXPLANATION:
On June 21, 2011. the City Council adopted an ordinance amending Title 18 Zoning (Land Use Code) in
its entirety as part of the Comprehensive Land Use Update. On February 7, 2012, the Council adopted
minor amendments to the Land Use Code. During the update process, it was determined that certain
sections of Title 18 would be more appropriately located under other Titles of the Municipal Code. One
section of the previous Title 18 pertaining to the use of tarpaulins was determined to be better suited for
Title 7, the Property Conservation and Community Appearance Code, and these sections were removed
from the amended Title 18. The previous provisions regulating the use of tarpaulins was contained in
Section 18.14.160 (I) and read: "in all residential zones, the use of tarpaulins as temporary or
permanent structures, including, but not limited to carports, sheds, lean-tos and patio covers is
prohibited." The proposed ordinance would amend Chapter 7.20 of Title 7 by adding Section 7.20.150,
"In all zones, the use of tarpaulins as temporary or permanent structures is prohibited, including but not
limited to the following: A. Awnings, B. Carports, C. Car covers, D. Lean-tos, E. Patio covers, F. Roofs,
G. Shade structures, H. Sheds.
