The Planning Commission has generated the attached list of barriers to affordable housing
identified in the Moab Municipal Code. In addition, The List of Potential Concerns was
developed during a brainstorming session in a workshop held on March 10, 2011.
Please review both lists for comment and discussion at the meeting on March 24.

Comments/Description
Discussion
Lot size
1
Large lots include lots that are 7,000 sq ft
or larger in size.
Large lots lead to urban sprawl. Extension of utilities, longer streets and
sidewalks, and a lack of a compact design all cost the developer money and add
maintenance costs to the local jurisdiction.
Lot width
2
No increases for additional units
A symptom of large lots and, like large lots, contributes to sprawl. Also wide lots
can lead to an inefficient use of all utilities and contributes to increased costs of
installation for the developer and higher maintenance costs for local
jurisdictions. Required increases in lot width for additional units can inhibit
development of a property even though the area of the parcel is adequate for
additional units.
Density
3
Need greater flexibility for development
and increases in density
Density is described by the number of dwellings per acre. Generally, a higher
number of dwellings per acre will lead to lower housing costs, lower costs of
installation and maintenance of utilities, and is an efficient use of all services.
Densities in PUD
4a
Planned unit developments are primarily
residential communities that include
private residences, shared public space,
and limited commercial development.
Densities can be higher in these
development types if they are allowed to
be a standalone zone and not tied to the
regulations of underlying districts.
Generally density bonuses are generously
granted for affordable housing, and
negotiations for other development
options between the community leaders
and the developer are common.
A planned unit development, or PUD, has a special zoning classification that
allows construction techniques that wouldn't be permitted elsewhere. A PUD
may serve as an overlay zone or as a stand-alone zoning district. Advantages
include:
1. Convenience. PUDs use layouts that feature clusters of homes and large
open spaces or commercial areas that can include shops, parks,
recreational facilities and restaurants and other basic goods and services.
PUDs often include extensive sidewalks, wide roads, and bicycle paths.
2. PUDs offer homes in a wide range of prices but dues residents pay for care
of common spaces in the development can be one of the biggest
drawbacks.
3. A special zoning aspect of a PUD is the ability to build homes in closer
proximity, producing population densities that would be a violation of
zoning regulations elsewhere.
4.

Densities in MPD
4b
Master Planned Developments include
residential, recreation, open space, and
commercial development consistent with a
master plan.
Density bonuses for affordable housing
should be substantial (at least 25%).
Planned developments are carefully mapped out communities built entirely
from scratch in underdeveloped and undeveloped areas. They ensure sensible
development to include green areas of open space, sufficient public facilities,
and well designed public buildings and often serve as an ecological scope for
the community. The trend of planned communities in the United States started
in the 1930s, took off in the 1950s and has skyrocketed nationwide, suggesting
a great numbers of benefits related to them.
1. Planned communities offer security by eliminating high risk factors such as
crime. They are good places to raise kids and neighborhoods are typically
alienated from commercial areas and guarded with a gate and a guard or
patrolled. Also, the entire community looks out for the safety of its inhabitants.
2. Planned communities are great options for people who cannot afford to have
some luxury in their life because all community members contribute to shared
amenities and benefits of the community. More money is collected toward
improved amenities like schools, parks, community centers, swimming pools,
walking trails, etc.
3. Planned communities have homeowner's associations that provide regular
maintenance, gardening, lawn mowing and so on and in some cases, exterior
repainting may be provided.
4. Planned communities offer property owners architectural options to select a
plan that matches the owner's taste rather than having to choose from a
limited selection of floor plans and styles.
Minimum home
5
Let the market dictate. Small homes
Regulations for minimum home sizes have successfully been argued to provide
size
provide an opption to many persons who
could not live within a community because
of land costs. Smaller homes require less
energy to heat and cool and can be
conveniently placed on smaller building
lots creating compact development.
(Concerns over energy use has spawned
what is being called "the tiny home
movement" and most tiny homes are
somewhere between 65 and 800 square
a greater measure of certainty for compatibility with surrounding development
in neighborhoods. However, these regulations have also lead to discriminatory
zoning by excluding many economic groups from neighborhoods with this type
of regulation. Rather than developing economically homogeneous street blocks,
it has been determined that community health is promoted by mixing economic
levels and housing types. Differing housing styles and sizes also contribute to
more interesting streetscapes.

feet, with varying levels of comfort. Tiny
homes offer many benefits. The low cost
(most small models begin around $15,000)
of units is a major draw for people who
want the freedom that comes with not
having to make monthly mortgage
payments. Environmentally minded
individuals appreciate the low carbon
footprint that comes with a tiny home.
Heating costs can be as low as
$10.00/month. The homes can even be
mobile and mounted on a towing assembly
so they can be hooked into services nearly
anywhere, much like an RV.)
Open space
requirements for
apartments
6
Communal open Space
Developments must provide communal open
space that is:
a) useable;
b) clearly defined;
c) safe and attractive.
• Usually crudely described as a
percentage of the property;
• Is provided in addition to private open
space areas;
• Has an additional description of
dimensions for length and width;
• Is readily accessible to residents;
• Has a maximum slope gradient not
exceeding one in ten;
• Is designed and located so that it is
subject to informal surveillance from
dwellings on the site;
• Is clearly delineated from any private
areas of the site.
More advanced zoning ordinances now require useable open space in
conjunction with residences. The scientific basis of these requirements is still
unclear, but it accords intuitive recognition to the place of the open space in
man's life. Open space, thought of from this viewpoint, does not include area
devoted to service driveways or off-street parking and loading. Its purpose is to
Y P g g P rP
provide space for greenery, yards and recreation. These objectives are usually
not explicit so that often the open space requirement coincides with other
provisions in the ordinance, such as those for yards. Since it is only open space
that is required, and not space for recreation or a landscaped area, the results of
these regulations are uncertain and the space itself may be no more useable than
customary front, side or rear yards. Nevertheless, there is legal support for
useable open space which finds its basis in providing for such amenities as
recreation, comfort and pleasure. Often open space is determined to be met if in
proximity to schools, arks, trails, and other recreation opportunities.

Units too small and the location
requirements are difficult on larger tracts
of property.
The requirements may act as a barrier especially on larger tracts of property
that have enough area for location options. Small size of 700 sq ft would be
very cramped for a family of three just starting out.
Excessive street

Wide streets have been considered
excessive development regulations or

The cost of construction continues to rise as technology is refined to extract
more of the impurities from crude oil for use in ways other than oil for asphalt.
Also, city costs of maintenance continue to rise especially on very wide streets.

widening of block lengths, and lower densities.

With By contrast, the provision of certain amenities in housing finds a firm place
in the police power. Measures designed to assure adequate light and air found
early acceptance by the courts. The early method was to prescribe the distance
between buildings and to limit the height, a crude method which has the further
effect of dictating the building envelope and its placement on the lot.

City of Moab
Planning and Zoning Department
Correspondence
March 15, 2011
Memo To: Honorable Mayor and Members of Council
From: Planning Staff
Subject: Public Hearing and Approval for Ordinance #2011-01, Amending the
Uses of the R-2 Residential Zone by Adding a Conditional Use of "Other
Public Facilities" as Referred to Council by the Planning and Zoning
Commission
Discussion
The city has received an application for a code amendment from the school district and the
BLM. The request is to amend the R-2 Zone to allow activities that are carried out by
government entities other than the City of Moab and the school district. The proposed R-2 Zone
change is being presented as a conditional use and could include a wide variety of uses under
the banner "Other Public Facilities".
The changes to the code would require that three sections be amended; a definition of Other
Government Facilities would be included in Chapter 17.06, a change to the recently adopted
Table of Conditional Uses in Chapter 17.09.530, and changes to 17.45.020, Use
requirements, for the R-2 Zone with the addition of an Item K, Other Government Facilities, as
allowed under an approved conditional use permit.
Within chapter 17.09.530, specific conditions of approval are also required so that the approval
of the additional conditional use will meet state code. The following draft code sections were
reviewed by the Commission in a regular meeting held on January 13, 2011. The commission
unanimously voted to recommend that Council approve the change to the code.
"Other public facilities include, but are not limited to, governmental functions such as
libraries, museums, parks, playgrounds, recreational centers, jail or correctional facilities,
police, fire, or utilities facilities, that are public owned or under public- owned or operated or
under public control and jurisdiction, and subject to the provisions of this code. "

The table of Conditional Uses would now consist of 29 types of conditional uses as shown
below.
(b) Conditional Use Matrix. The following table is a list of conditional uses in the appropriate
zones. The general and specific conditions for approval for the review requirements are listed
in subsection (h) of this chapter and additional review criteria are listed in Chapter 17.09.531

Memo To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the Moab Council
From: City Staff
Subject: Review and Approval of an Application to Rezone Portions of
the Red Rocks Partners Property Located at 61 North 100 West From C-
2 and R-4 to C-3 and Approval of Ordinance #2011-10 Amending the
Official City of Moab Zoning map
Background
The Planning Commission held a public hearing to review this application on February 24, 2011.
The Commission voted in a split vote to favorably recommend the rezone to Council. If
approved, the rezoning will create consistent zoning across the entire parcel. The property is
currently zoned predominantly R-4 with a small amount as C-2. The portion of the property that
fronts on 1 S` West Street is currently C-3. The application has been submitted in an effort to
change the C-2 and R-4 portions to C-3.
Please refer to the attached PC memos PL-11-037, PL-11-041, and particularly, memo PL-11-
032, dated February 19, 2011, for background information regarding the application.
Discussion
The Planning Commission requested additional information for their meeting on March 10 and
were provided with:
o History of the zoning for the area,
o A discussion about the advantages of redevelopment, and
o A survey of the existing development of 15' West and Williams Way.
Also, a comparison was provided as to the types of uses allowed in the three zones in Planning
memo, PL-11-037, and a visual survey of the types of uses on First West as well as adjacent
properties on nearby Williams Way was presented by staff.
Page 50 of 92

Page 2 of 3
The zoning history was first classified as C-2 in 1954. The entire west side of the city was
zoned commercially at the time and labeled "Central Commercial Zone". Today, the
Central Commercial Zone is given a "C-3" designation. Between 1954 and 1974 there is
little evidence as to what occurred in the area but the surviving zoning map indicates that
during the twenty year span many of the zones we now have were created and applied to
various parcels. During this time, the original C-2 was divided into R-4 and R-3 with large
portions of the property as C-3. This historic map also follows zone change updates until
1982. Maps from 1992, 1993, and 1998 show no changes in the zoning in the immediate
area. Then in 2009, Council approved the zone change of the Bazil-Todd property from
C-3 to C-2 so they could construct an office/home and provide their dwelling on the
ground floor.
The referenced zoning maps will be available for Council review.
Aspects of rezoning and redevelopment include those listed below. It should be considered that
this action goes beyond development of just this property and that approval of the ordinance
can be considered as a Downtown redevelopment that will provide depth off of Main Street and
strengthen our commercial core.
➢ Redevelopment is one of the most effective ways to reverse deterioration and breathe
new life into distressed areas, breaking down barriers and drawing new investments by
private enterprises.
➢ Redevelopment is meant to attract and create jobs, revitalize the business climate,
rehabilitate the housing stock and initiate active participation by citizens in the area.
➢ Incompatible or undesirable conditions are considered blight, and renovating these areas
is the major focus of redevelopment; Blight directly contributes to disproportionately high
crime rates, and dangerous or illegal activities.
➢ New police stations, renovated library branches and street paving are some of the
notable results of these types of improvements;
➢ Redevelopment attracts new services and businesses to the area, increasing the
economic health of the City as well as providing local residents with new and viable job
opportunities;
➢ Redevelopment offers existing business owners opportunities to upgrade their store
through fagade improvements, enhancing their chances to attract and maintain
customers and therefore succeed in their business efforts,
➢ Redevelopment enhances the existing streetscape and landscaping of public
throughways in these areas;
➢ Redevelopment monitors vacant properties and maintains strict Code Enforcement
efforts, including graffiti removal;
➢ Redevelopment is an investment in neighborhoods that helps in resident retention by
developing open space areas, parks and community resource facilities that unite many
diverse neighborhoods and accentuates positive aspects to be shared in all cultures.
Process
The process for a Zoning Map amendment is similar to a text amendment of the development
code in that it is Council's discretion to hold or not hold a public hearing. The Code allows
Page 51 of 92
Page 3 of 3
Council to adopt text amendments as well as Zoning Map amendments in Chapter 17.04.100,
Action by City Council. Paragraph "A", without a public hearing;
"A. The city council may authorize any zoning map amendment or text amendment
by ordinance adopted at a public meeting, which shall be held following receipt of the
planning commission recommendation."
The code goes on to state, "In its discretion, the council may elect to receive testimony or
evidence from the applicant, city staff, and the public prior to taking final action on the
ordinance."
If a public hearing is conducted, then the necessary notices and advertising must be
completed.
Alternatives
1) Council can decide to hold a public hearing and establish a date;
2) Council can decide to not hold a public hearing and approve Ordinance #2011-02 as
recommended by the Planning Commission;
3) Council can approve Ordinance #2011-02 with any changes necessary to address
concerns;
4) Council can vote to not approve the ordinance and state the reasons for denial;
5) Council can table the ordinance in order to satisfy needs for additional information.

Public Hearing to Approve an Application to Rezone Property as
Submitted by Tom Stevens Representing Red Rock Partners
Pi 11-032
Tom Stevens, acting on behalf of Red Rock Partners, has applied for a rezone of property
located at 61 North 100 West (northwest corner of the intersection of Williams Way and 100
West). The property is currently zoned predominantly R-4 with a small amount as C-2. The
portion of the property that fronts on 15` West Street is currently C-3. The application has been
submitted in an effort to change the C-2 and R-4 portions to C-3 for a resort development.
The affected property is approximately 5.13 acres in size.
The residents of the existing mobile home park were given the required nine month notification,
possibly in 2007-08, to vacate the property.
Discussion
This application will erase a split of one of the properties by the zoning boundary between R-4
and C-2 and C-3. This is similar to a recently approved rezoning of property and will remove the
confusion created by this situation. Contemporary zoning generally follows property lines and
centerlines of street rights -of -way and the applicant has provided a plat showing this concept.
As provided in a previous memo to the Planning Commission, the objectives and characteristics
of the zones should be evaluated in reaching a decision.
The objectives for the C-3 zone are contained in Chapter 17.24.010 of the code. It states,
"The C-3 central commercial zone has been established as a district in which the
primary use of the land is for business purposes. The area covered by this zone is now
and it is intended that it shall continue to be the dominant shopping and financial center
ofthe city and surrounding territory. For this reason the zone has been located in the
central part of the city where the street pattern makes the business buildings readily
accessible to all parts of the city and surrounding region and where business and
Page 54 of 92
5-a
Page z of 6
shopping activities can be carried on with maximum convenience. The C-3 zone is
characterized by wide, clean, well -lighted streets, ample pedestrian ways and vehicular
parking lots for the convenience and safety of the public. Attractive, inviting and well -
maintained shops, stores, offices and other buildings are also characteristic of this zone.
Representative of the uses in this zone are banks, hotels, office buildings, theaters, and
a wide variety of retail outlets. In order to accomplish the objectives and purposes of this
title and to promote the characteristics of this zone, the regulations set out in this chapter
shall apply in the C-3 zone."
Proposed residential uses cannot be located on the ground floor. A conceptual plan has not
been received at this time but the code requires that residential uses in the C-3 not occupy
possible ground floor commercial spaces. The exception is if the housing units are intended for
affordable housing.
The objectives of the current zoning are also interesting. In Chapter 17.51.010, the R-4 zone is
described as providing,
"the most appropriate locations for mobile home parks and mobile home subdivisions
along with conventional dwellings. The zone is characterized by open fields interspersed
by well -maintained mobile home parks, mobile home subdivisions, and other types of
dwellings."
The R-4 zoning in this area does not mirror the images conjured up by the description in the
code but it does allude to "...other types of dwellings" that may be an appropriate match to the
surrounding commercial development.
Chapter 17.21.010 describes the C-2, commercial -residential, zone as an area that would
"facilitate the development of attractive areas within the city that allow the mixing of compatible
commercial and residential uses; facilitate the orderly expansion of commercial uses out from
the central commercial district; and, be characterized by attractive and well -maintained
commercial and residential buildings set back from public streets and surrounded by
landscaped yards."
It is logical that this area would become an extension of the central commercial district (C-3
Zone). The proximity of the property within one block of Main Street is a natural expansion and
approval would be in conformance with the provisions of the General Plan to expand this
commercial area. It will attract visitors and provide lodging within walking distance of the night
life and other activities on Main Street.
Rezoning of older properties for redevelopment can enhance the neighborhood and provide an
increase in utilization of underdeveloped spaces, buildings and utilities. These underused areas
are a significant asset that the City can offer for redevelopment projects. The potential for
additional residential development, improved neighborhood environments, and providing
additional jobs are all economic benefits.

Code Chapter 17.04.040, Zoning Map Amendments, contains criteria for the Planning
Commission and Council to apply to requests to rezone:
Review of Criteria
Chapter 17.04.050 states, "For the purpose of establishing and maintaining sound, stable and
desirable development within the City of Moab, zoning map amendments are to be discouraged.
Zoning map amendments shall only be approved if the applicant establishes that one or more of
the following standards apply to the subject real property:
1. The land to be zoned was zoned in error and, as presently zoned, is inconsistent with
the policies and goals of the City's General Plan.
It can be argued that this area was zoned in error and was merely applied because of the type
of development that was in existence at the time of adoption of these sections of the code. It is
necessary for central commercial areas to have surrounding transition or "support" zones that
provide complimentary and accessory types of businesses and services for various retail
establishments. This type of arrangement provides proximity shopping on a pedestrian scale .
and creates a compact walk able design in compliance with Smart Growth.
Rezoning of this property is also in keeping with the policies and goals of the General Plan.
Rezoning will:
• "...provide for adequate amounts of appropriate commercial land in the future and to
ensure the attractiveness, natural beauty, existing character and environmental stability
of these areas;
• Encourage the development and vitality of a central commercial district compatible with
small-town living;
• Will fulfill the implementation of the "in -filling and redevelopment policy of the plan';
• Encourage clustering of commercial enterprises;
• Satisfy the Plan by permitting expansion of commercial uses into or within residential
areas... if such development maintains the residential desirability of the affected
neighborhoods and the "character" of the structure and signs and `fits in" with other
existing structures;
• Encourage variety in new commercial developments and businesses;
• Allows the central commercial zone to expand when additional commercial
capacity is needed and when such development is compatible with historical
structures and character of the community;
• Encourage upgrade in the appearance of commercial areas and ensure that
building design enhances existing town -scale and character.
2. The area for which a map amendment is requested has changed or is changing to
such a degree that it is in the public interest to encourage a redevelopment of the area.
Page 56 of 92
54-
Page 4 of 6
The area has become a busy economic area with commercial development in the guise of a
subdivision of "twin homes" on Williams Way, additional residential development and the
proposal for a new hospital a short distance from this property.
3. The proposed map amendment is necessary in order to provide land for a use which
was not anticipated at the time of the adoption of the City's General Plan, and that such
change will be consistent with the policies and goals of the Plan. Special consideration
shall be given to existing conditions on and around the area in question, including the
changing nature of the area, land uses, densities, and the height and scale of both
existing and proposed structures.
Certainly, a destination resort was not anticipated just one block off of Main Street in 2002, but
the economic value of property has risen greatly in the past hand full of years. As noted above
granting the rezone will be in keeping with the goals, objectives, and policies for implementation
of the General Plan.
Map Amendment Approval Criteria.
According to Chapter 17.04.060, the Planning Commission and City Council shall consider the
following criteria in reviewing a proposed map amendment:
1. Was the existing zone for the property adopted in error?
See #1 above.
2. Has there been a change of character in the area including, but not limited to:
the installation of public facilities or new utilities; other approved zone changes;
new growth trends; deterioration of existing development; or the need for
development transitions?
Please see above for a portion of the answer for this criteria. Existing structures are
deteriorating. Many of the commercial buildings saw their banner years a long time ago and are
in need of repair and constant maintenance. New growth trends have been shaped by the
recreation and housing needs of a second home industry because of the opportunities in the
Spanish Valley and surrounding areas and National Parks. Zone changes to commercial
districts have been granted by Council in recent history and this action has caused a "peninsula"
of R-4 zone between commercial zones to be created.
3. Is there a need for the proposed zoning within the area or community?
This proposed rezoning will satisfy the General Plan through expansion of the central
commercial district and provide redevelopment of these older properties.
4. Is the proposed zoning classification compatible with the surrounding area or
uses; will there be adverse impacts; and/or can any adverse impacts be
mitigated?
Page 57 of 92
5-a
Page 5 of 6
The zoning is compatible with the surrounding zones and is adjacent with the C-3 Zone.
Surrounding uses include a single-family home that will probably see some impact and the other
prominent use is a commercial mobile home park.
5. Will benefits be derived by the community or area by granting the proposed
zoning?
From the standpoint of economic development, the community should greatly benefit from the
rezoning and the proposed development for the property. The neighborhood will be improved
through redevelopment and it should act as encouragement for other surrounding property
owners to review their properties for improvement.
6. Are adequate facilities available to serve development for the type and scope
of development suggested by the proposed zoning classification? If utilities are
not available, can they be reasonably extended?
Adequate facilities exist but some upgrade of services may be required at the developer's
expense.
7. Does the application conform with the provisions of the Moab General Plan,
the Land Use Code, and applicable agreements with affected governmental
entities?
The application meets all applicable standards.
Decision to rezone must be based on the General Plan as well as the Land Use Code. The Plan
states, "All ordinance changes, rezoning, or improvement programs should be in conformance
with the expressed policies and maps of the General Plan." It also goes
on to say "...that all new zone changes [must] conform with the General Plan" and that they be
done in a manner "necessary to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the community and
work to preserve the natural environment and character of a small-town community."
A rezone makes sense when viewed in the light of the types of uses on the surrounding
properties. It also makes sense as a logical extension of the C-3 Zone and agrees with the
goals of the General Plan. It may be in the best interests of the City of Moab for the Planning
Commission to consider adjacent properties in this annexation
The rezoning is logical for the area because:
• A single tract would no longer be split by two zones
• It is a natural extension of the C-3 zone
• It meets the criteria of the General Plan
The development of the property will fall under additional scrutiny because of the possible
impacts to traffic and parking that may be associated with this type of development.
These issues will be addressed through review of a commercial site plan application that
will be the next step for the applicant if successful in the rezoning of the property.

Property as Submitted by Red Rock Partners
Discussion
This application will erase a split of a tract approximately 5 acres in size that is divided between
R-4 and C-2 and C-3 Zones. Contemporary zoning practices generally follow property lines and
centerlines of street rights -of -way.
The Zoning Declaration in Code Chapter 17.04.050 should be kept in mind while evaluating this
application:
1. The land to be zoned was zoned in error and, as presently zoned, is inconsistent with
the policies and goals of the City's General Plan.
2. The area for which a map amendment is requested has changed or is changing to
such a degree that it is in the public interest to encourage a redevelopment of the area.
3. The proposed map amendment is necessary in order to provide land for a use which
was not anticipated at the time of the adoption of the City's General Plan, and that such
change will be consistent with the policies and goals of the Plan. Special consideration
shall be given to existing conditions on and around the area in question, including the
changing nature of the area, land uses, densities, and the height and scale of both
existing and proposed structures.
In addition, the Map Amendment Approval Criteria are found in Chapter 17.04.060, and the
Planning Commission and City Council must consider the following in reviewing a proposed
map amendment:
1. Was the existing zone for the property adopted in error?
2. Has there been a change of character in the area including, but not limited to:
the installation of public facilities or new utilities; other approved zone changes;
new growth trends; deterioration of existing development; or the need for

5. Will benefits be derived by the community or area by granting the proposed

6. Are adequate facilities available to serve development for the type and scope
of development suggested by the proposed zoning classification? If utilities are
not available, can they be reasonably extended?
7. Does the application conform with the provisions of the Moab General Plan,
the Land Use Code, and applicable agreements with affected governmental
entities?
A decision to rezone must be based on the General Plan as well as the Land Use Code. The
Plan states, "All ordinance changes, rezoning, or improvement programs should be in
conformance with the expressed policies and maps of the General Plan." It also goes
on to say "...that all new zone changes [must] conform with the General Plan" and that they be
done in a manner "necessary to protect the health, safety, and welfare of the community and
work to preserve the natural environment and character of a small-town community."
A rezone is a logical expansion of the C-3 when reviewing the types of uses on the surrounding
properties and agrees with the goals of the General Plan.
The Vision for Moab (pp 5-6) has several goals to follow when planning for the future:
1. Promote the presence of a vital downtown as the center of commercial activities and
employment.
2. Utilize compact development patterns that make the most efficient use of public facilities
and services, protect open space and minimize urban sprawl.
3. Maintain a rural/small town character that saves and complements its historic structures
and neighborhoods.
4. Create walk -able neighborhoods, free of high-speed traffic hazard.
5. Locate schools, parks, trails and other public facilities within walking/biking distance of
homes.
6. Reduce the effects of summer heat by providing or requiring shade in parking lots,
shopping areas, parks and other public areas and neighborhoods; discourage removal of
historic trees; and reduce coverage requirements for asphalt.
7. Separate and buffer conflicting land uses, especially where commercial abuts residential.
8. Encourage a diverse mix of year-round jobs that offer competitive salaries and
meaningful work to keep Moab families employed in Moab.
9. Preserve Moab's surrounding landscapes and other natural resources to enhance the
quality of life for community residents and in order to continue to attract people to the
area who contribute to economic stability.
10. Develop a community and resort destination that is designed for people where walking
and biking are the cornerstone of the transportation system.
11. Protect the stillness and visual integrity of Moab's enveloping desert landscape.
12. Protect and preserve open space, agricultural lands, riparian areas, ridgelines, mesas
and wetlands.
13. Improve quality of living through support for affordable housing.
The rezoning is logical for the area because:
• A single tract would no longer be split by two zones
• It is a natural extension of the C-3 zone
• It meets the goal of the General Plan
Future development of the property will fall under additional scrutiny because of the
possible impacts to traffic and parking that may be associated with this type of
development. These issues will be addressed through review of a commercial site plan

It is logical that this area would become an extension of the central commercial district (C-3
Zone) because a portion is already designated as such. The proximity of the property within one
block of Main Street is a natural expansion and approval would be in conformance with the
provisions of the General Plan to expand the commercial area. It will attract visitors and provide
lodging within walking distance of the night life and other activities on Main Street and provide
an anchor for the development of 100 West as well as for Main Street businesses.
Rezoning of older properties for redevelopment can enhance neighborhoods and provide an
increase in utilization of underdeveloped spaces, buildings and utilities. These underused areas
are a significant asset that the City can offer for redevelopment projects. The potential for
additional residential development, improved neighborhood environments, and providing
additional jobs are additional benefits.
Possible general benefits of redevelopment on underutilized properties include:
• redevelopment of areas that currently attract anti -social behavior
• provision of new units to respond to local housing needs
• improved housing mixes
• Improved mix use for a more walk able community
• provision of key worker accommodation
• increased demand and support for local services
• provide surveillance of currently unsupervised areas
• generate funds for wider physical improvements through unit sales
• More efficient use of existing utilities
In the broad picture,
• All proposals should consider potential long term impacts — for example, would development
have a detrimental impact on vehicular access to potential future development on an
adjacent area? OR would there be great benefit to the community derived from the
redevelopment?
• Need to review the areas immediately around a site — adjacent areas may detract from new
development and become future "problem" areas. Redevelopment can in many situations
help foster redevelopment of adjacent properties.
• The viability of a proposed use of property needs to be considered when it is replacing older
development that is limited in the number of units provided and that is part of the existing
built fabric that is nearing the end of its useful life.
• Proposals should be evaluated with an assessment of the condition of surrounding
development including housing stock and other structures so that they can be incorporated
into comprehensive redevelopment projects in the longer term if possible.
Past changes in zoning from R-4 to C-2 on nearby and adjacent properties have allowed for
development that would not have occurred if R-4 designation was left in place. This trend and
the ensuing development of townhomes and the construction of the hospital, medical office
building, and extended care facility are major changes in the area that will have great impacts in
the future.
While commercial expansion to the east has been thwarted by a handful of residents in the
area, the area along First West has already been rezoned to create an environment for
Page 66 of 92

commercial expansion. A survey of First West clearly shows the preponderance of commercial
development. It is expected that

change the C-2 and R-4 portions to C-3.
The affected property is approximately 6.13 acres in size.
Discussion
The attached Planning Resolution is drafted in the affirmative and the motion should reflect this
approach. The vote then will be to uphold the motion to recommend that Council approve the
change or it can be voted down indicating an unfavorable recommendation to Council.
Alternatives
1) The Commission can approve Resolution #06-2011 as written;
2) The Commission can vote to not approve Resolution 06-2011 and state their reasons;
3) The Commission may table the application for additional comment and review.

I. INTRODUCTION
Red Rock Partners, LLC. (Owners) are the current owners of the 7.22 acre parcel of
land bordered by 100 West, Williams Way and Walnut Lane. This parcel is currently
zoned R-4, C-2 and C-3. The Owners seek to rezone those portions of the subject
property currently zoned R-4 and C-2 to C-3 zoning consistent with the C-3 zoning of
the front (east) portion of the site, to allow the future development of a hoteVresort
with associated commercial uses.
I7.24.010 Objectives and characteristics.
The C-3 central commercial zone has been established as a distnct in which the pnmary
use of the land /s for business purposes. The area covered by this zone is now and it is intended
that it shall continue to be the dominant shopping and financial center of the city and
surrounding terntory. For this reason the zone has been located in the central part of the city
where the street pattern makes the business buildings readily accessible to all parts of the city
and surrounding region and where business and shopping activities can be carned on with
maximum convenience. The C-3 zone is charactenzed by wide, clean, well -lighted streets, ample
pedestrian ways and vehicular parking lots for the convenience and safety of the public.
Attractive, inviting and well -maintained shops, stores, offices and other buildings are also
characteristic of this zone.
Representative of the uses in this zone are banks, hotels, office buildings, theaters, and
a wide variety of retail outlets. In order to accomplish the objectives and purposes of this title
and to promote the charactenstics of this zone, the regulations set out in this chapter shall
apply in the C-3 zone.
The proposal of a hoteVresort/spa with associated commercial space precisely fits the
purpose and the intent of the C-3 zone district. This parcel of land, located just one
block off Main Street and in the central part of the city lends itself well to this type of
development by keeping hotel and commercial uses in the central core and within easy,
convenient distance from existing commercial core activities.
Page 73 of 92
1I. EXISTING CONDITIONS
The subject parcel has been assigned an address of 61 North, 100 West, Moab, Utah
84532.
The 7.22 +/- acre parcel of land is currently zoned R-4 for the west two thirds of the
property, C-3 for the east one third of the property with a small area of C-2 at the
southern portion of the site. The site is surrounded by C-3 to the east, as well as to
the north and south of the eastern most third of the parcel, C-2 to the south and west
and R-4 to the north.
Its current use within the R-4 zoned area is a trailer court with 45 trailers. The parcel is
within City limits- and is serviced by City utilities, roads and support services such as
police, fire etc.
Access is provided to the site by 100 West, Williams Way and Walnut Lane.
The attached site survey shows an area to the southern portion that was the product of
a quit claim from Shields to the City of Moab for a 100 foot wide strip of land in 196 I .
In 1988, the city quited back to Shields certain portions of that 196 I conveyance.
The area not conveyed back is represented on the site survey.
There are structures along the east property line, along 100 West
The parcel is essentially flat, falling from east to west from 40 15 feet at its highest
point to 4002 at its lowest. Although the site has approximately 13 feet of fall, spread
over the length of the site gives the perception of being nearly flat.
All existing structures, paved roads, fences, improvements and easements including a
20 foot wide irrigation easement which runs along the southern boundary, turning north
through the site have been represented on the site survey. Trailers and utilities to
those trailers have not been included in the site survey.
Notice has already been given to residents of the trailer court pursuant to State
mandated requirements, that the court will be closed and residents will be required to
find alternative housing. Closure of the court has not been scheduled, and it is the
intent of the Owner to allow residents to stay in the court as long as possible. It
should be noted, closure of the court is not dependent on approval of this rezoning
application. however, the Owner understands that alternative, replacement housing is
important to the redevelopment of this parcel and plans to offer alternative, replacement
housing which will be addressed within this application. This trailer court has provided
Page 74 of 92
Moab with valuable affordable housing inventory. However, the conditions of trailers
within this trailer court are poor. Few, if any, trailers would pass simple life safety
inspections.
III. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
The Owners propose to redevelop the existing property into a luxury hoteVresort/spa
with associated commercial uses. This development program is not intended to
compete with existing lodging accommodations within Moab but instead offer a type of
lodging new to Moab.
All development will be in accordance with the C-3 zone district and its dimensional
requirements for setback, height, lot coverage, parking etc.
All roads and utilities necessary to redevelop the property exist to the property
boundary meaning no extension of any city infrastructure will be required.
An integral component of the redevelopment of this parcel is the closing of the existing
trailer court located on site, the removal of the trailers and the development of
replacement housing for the existing trailer court residents. The Applicant also owns
land at Mill Creek and Highway 19 I . This property is currently under city review for
annexation and subsequent development into affordable housing, market rate housing and
commercial space.
The 2009 Grand County and City of Moab HOUSING STUD?' and AFFORDABLE
PIOUSING PLAN identified a strong need for low income to mid professional housing
options. The existing trailer court has provided a low income housing option for several
years. However, this housing option is no longer viable due to the condition of the
trailer court. Redevelopment is clearly needed. A community must be able to take a
step back, take an objective look at the affordable housing being provided and answer
one simple question, are we proud of this? Much work will need to be done to offer
replacement housing. While the Owner intends to offer new, highly efficient, well
designed replacement housing at the alternate site, it is not expected that all current
residents will take advantage of this option. What is important is that the option is
available. Also this option must be designed so it is financially accessible to the current
trailer court residents. Two components weigh strongly in financial accessibility, initial
purchase or rental rate, and monthly cost of operation. It is the Applicants goal to
affect the development of new units that are both affordable in initial acquisition as well
as energy efficient units that minimize the cost of monthly operation.
Page 75 of 92
3v-rte V)
IV. REPLACEMENT HOUSING
As previously stated, the site contains 45 trailer homes. These trailers will be removed
from the site and alternative housing will be offered as replacement housing. At this
time the Owner is processing the 22 acre Mill Creek Drive/Highway 1 9 I property that
is in its ownership through the City for annexation and development review. The
development program for this parcel calls for the development of deed restricted
affordable housing in compliance with the goals of the 2009 Grand County and City of
Moab HOUSING .STUDYand AFFORDABLE MOUSING PLAN. 45 of these units will be
reserved as replacement housing for the trader court residents. These two parcels are
unrelated and the development review of each parcel is unrelated, and as such each
parcel will be reviewed as a stand-alone land use application. The reality though is that
both parcels are inter -related. While the Owners have the legal ability to remove all
traders from the court at this time, and pursue re -development of that parcel, it is not
their desire to leave the existing residents with no housing option. That is the tie for
these two parcels. Re -development of the 100 West/Walnut Lane parcel must address
replacement housing for the existing residents, not from a legal standpoint, but from a
community standpoint. for that reason, the Owners are developing both parcels in
conjunction.
It cannot be clear at this time how many of the trailer court residents will take advantage
of replacement housing. What is clear is that each family living in the trailer court can
significantly increase their quality of life by leaving their existing trailer and relocating to
a newly constructed, energy efficient, well designed, safe unit.
The units proposed at Mill Creek/highway 19 I range from studio to three bedroom
units. There will be units to rent and units offered for purchase. Units will run the range
of pricing beginning with low income up to the mid professional category. The residents
of the trader court will be given first choice of units, allowing them to pick a unit that
best suits their size and economic needs.
Timing is obviously a sensitive issue when developing two independent parcels under
such a scenario. It will take a concerted effort by the Owner, as well as cooperation
from the City to result in a seamless transition from approvals, development and
occupancy of these units without having a gap in time leaving existing residents without
housing while waiting for the completion of the new replacement housing. The Owner will
make every effort to do their part to not close the trailer court and remove trailers until
the replacement units have been constructed.
Page 76 of 92
V. COMPLIANCE WITH 2O02 GENERAL PLAN
The General Plan is a very comprehensive document that guides the growth of all
aspects of Moab. There are, however, certain components of the Plan that directly
guide the subject parcel and this application for rezoning. A few of these key
components have been addressed below.
The General Plan states "The implementation stage of the City of Moab General Plan will
come as rezoning, development and annexation requests are made..." This application
seeks rezoning of the subject parcel which means the City now has the opportunity to
implement the plan relative to this parcel. Within the General Plan, several sections exist
that relate directly to this parcel of land and the development plans associated with the
rezoning request.
SECTION I , ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
The goal of the economic development language ►s "to encourage development
that increases the City tax base, reduces unemployment , creates higher wages and/or
improves the standard of living and quality of life within the City's capability to provide
services and the stated policies related to growth."
The existing residential use on the majority of the subject parcel generates no tax
revenue for the City. Also it ►s arguably one of the C►ty's larger consumers of City
resources, specifically police. By replacing this existing use with lodging and
commercial, the City will expand its tax base considerably while potentially reducing the
consumption of City resources. The existing parcel, in its residential use, generates no
employment while upon redevelopment into lodging and commercial, jobs will be created
ranging from service to upper management. This creation of jobs, especially the higher
wage jobs has a clear benefit to the City.
Currently, the majority of lodging and commercial uses are confined to Main
Street/Highway 19 I . In the particular vicinity of the subject parcel, businesses have
attempted to locate on 100 West with little success. There has been no commercial
draw to get people away from Main Street. With the addition of an upper end
hoteVresort/spa and commercial uses on the subject parcel, surrounding commercial
parcels will have the economic "anchor" they have needed to survive, thus improving the
economic climate well beyond to the specific parcel boundaries of the subject property.
The General Plan goes on to state that the City should "consider carefully adjusting
zoning rules as they relate to economic development." It further states that the City
should `encourage existing businesses and industries to expand." The requested
rezone of the subject parcel will expand the lodging industry and has the potential to
become a significant economic development for Moab. The lodging industry currently
operates at near capacity during "on season" with rooms often times being completely
Page 77 of 92
booked. Additional capacity allows additional visitors and additional economic impact on
all supporting businesses. Rather than compete with the existing lodging industry
however, the plan for the subject parcel ►s to develop a higher level of guest experience
with an upper end hoteVspa and commercial. This allows for the contemplated
development plans of the subject parcel to expand the lodging industry and thus the
economic development of the community without directly competing with the existing
lodging industry.
One of the policies of the General Plan, Section I, Economic Development, is to
encourage, initiate and support City beautification and cleanup efforts." The existing
trader court, and the subject parcel as a whole, represent some of the least visually
appealing areas within Moab. The redevelopment of this parcel will have a positive
impact on the overall beautification of Moab. Additionally the General Plan calls for the
City to "develop streetscape plans for Center Street from 100 West to 300 fast."
The subject parcel serves as a terminus to Center Street and can bring the streetscape
onto 100 West.
SECTION 2, GROWTH AND URBANIZATION
The goal specified within this section is "to encourage the orderly growth and
development of Moab within the City's ability to provide services. Emphasis should be
on balancing land use: Guiding growth to locations that are safe and sensible for the
City to service, while maintaining the character of the town and the beauty of its
surrounding landscapes."
Within the original planning for the City of Moab, this parcel was seen as appropriate for
commercial development and as such was zoned commercial. However, only that portion
of the parcel along 100 West was zoned to commercial as the balance of the parcel was
an existing trailer court and had to be zoned accordingly. Without the trailer court, it is
likely that the parcel would have been zoned commercial from the beginning. Having
commercial and lodging one block off Main Street just makes good planning sense.
Unless it has been determined that the commercial core shall be confined to Main Street
only, those parcels off Main Street, but still within walking distance to Main Street,
would certainly be considered part of the commercial core. The subject parcel
represents an opportunity for the City to expand viable commercial uses along Center
Street, 100 North and 100 South and along 100 West with the rezoning of this parcel.
Services already exist to the subject parcel meaning no extension of service is required,
again marling this parcel a prime location for development. The development review
process will require impact assessment reports which will identify any and all fiscal,
environmental, public facilities and services that will be impacted and require that the
developer pay for these impacts. This includes fees for such services as water and
sewer, and could in the future include fees for storm drains, roads, street lighting, parks
and recreation according to the General Plan.
Page 78 of 92
The General Plan goes on to state that the City should "encourage variety in new
commercial development and businesses" and "allow the central business zone to
expand when additional commercial capacity is needed and when such development is
compatible with historic structures and character of the community."
SECTION 5, HOUSING
Section 5 of the General Plan addresses housing. The goal of this section states "to
follow a housing strategy that meets the needs of the current residents, anticipates
growth in housing needs, promotes a cohesive, small town environment, supports a high
quality of life, and addresses the problems of affordable housing."
In 2009 the City of Moab, in conjunction with Grand County, produced the Grand
County and City of Moab Housing Study and Affordable Housing Plan. This plan looked
at current housing inventory and compared that to current housing demand and
projected housing demand into the future. The demand projected for the year 20 12
was 224 units of rental and 388 units of sale housing. Given this need for housing it
would be irresponsible to submit development plans to the City that resulted in a
decrease in existing affordable housing inventory.
Clearly one of the most pivotal ►ssues with the subject parcel is the existing trailer
court. While this court has provided much needed affordable housing for Moab in past
years it has outlived its design life. Not only are the trailers inefficient from an energy
consumption standpoint due to when they were built and their condition but few, if any,
units would pass a simple code safety inspection. An eye sore, a disproportionate
consumer of City resources (police) and poor living conditions are all elements that are
precisely contrary to the goals of the General Plan.
Red Rock Partners seeks to provide affordable housing not just as replacement for the
existing trailer court but additional homes for the community at large within the
proposed development located at Mill Creek Drive and Highway 19 I . While this is
being processed under a completely different land use application, it should be
considered a viable source of replacement housing for the trailer court. It is very
important that the City be aware that Red Rock Partners has completed the State
required step of notification to close the trailer court. At this point, a simple thirty day
notification ►s all that ►s reciu►red to force closure of the court. Obviously Red Rock
Partners has not given this notification to any of the trailer court residents and has no
plans to do so until replacement housing is available. This is why the Mill Creek Drive
property is going through the development review process. It is currently in the
annexation process and will be followed by the development review process as outlined
in the City of Moab Municipal Code.
Page 79 of 92
2)-A0 5'2�
The net result of these two separate applications being reviewed is that, if approved,
the residents of the trailer court will be provided new, energy efficient, quality,
affordable housing, and the existing trailer court will be redeveloped into a unique
property that not only provides significant tax revenue to the City but acts as a major
source of economic fuel for the Moab community, providing jobs from service to high
paying management, all while providing guests to the Moab area a unique lodging
experience.

2. A description of the requested change or amendment and a description of the property to be
affected by such request by a metes and bounds legal description;
The Applicant requests a rezone of the subject property from its current
underlying zone districts of R-4, C-2 and C-3 to entirely C-3. A legal description of
the property has been provided herein on the Site Survey attached herein.
3. A title certificate or report from a licensed title company or attorney listing the name of the
property owner(s) and all liens, easements, judgments, and encumbrances of record that affect
the title to the subject property;
A Title Certificate has been provided herein (Exhibit C).
4. A statement from the county treasurer showing payment in full of all real property taxes due

5. A boundary survey of the land area to be rezoned, which shall include a depiction of existing
zoning district boundaries, real property boundaries, existing structures, and public roads
existing within three hundred feet in all directions of the subject property boundary;
An Improvement Survey dated 5-23-2008 prepared by Keogh Land Surveying
has been included herein (Exhibit D) depicting property boundaries, existing structures,
roads and the zone district boundaries.
6. A list of surrounding property owners and their legal mailing addresses for all properties
within three hundred feet of the exterior boundary of the parcel proposed for a zoning map
amendment;
A list of surrounding property owners has been included herein (Exhibit 15).
7. A statement by the applicant explaining the rationale for the zoning request relative to the
standards imposed by this chapter;
Zoning for the subject parcel contemplated commercial, C-3 zoning on the front
portion of the site while R-4 had to be assigned to the rear portion of the site due to
the existing trailer court. This trailer court will be removed which represents a
substantial change in conditions from when the property was zoned initially. Due to its
adjacent proximity to commercially zoned property, the existence of a portion of the
subject parcel zoned C-3 and the need within the community for commercial space and
lodging, this site lends itself ideally to commercial use.
8. A filing fee in accordance with the fee schedule adopted by resolution of the city council; and
This will be paid at the time of submission of this application.
9. A narrative or concept plan describing why this property is suited for the intended purposes
and stating what development and/or construction is planned
See Section III Proposed Development above.

17.04.060 Map amendment approval criteria.
The planning commission and city council shall consider the following criteria in
reviewing a proposed map amendment:
A. Was the existing zone for the property adopted in error?
The existing zoning was not adopted in error. however the existing zoning was adopted to
accommodate a use that is changing. The site zoning is split between C-3 and R-4. The C-
3 portion of the site was clearly intended to bring commercial use to the site. The R-4 zone
was required to accommodate the existing use of the trailer court. The trailer court is be
closed allowing this use to convert to C-3, consistent with the front portion of the site.
B. Has there been a change of character in the area including, but not limited to: the
installation of public facilities or new utilities; other approved zone changes; new growth trends;
deterioration of existing development; or the need for development transitions?
As previously stated, the deteriorated trailer court will be shut down upon completion of
replacement housing allowing for the entire site to become C-3 rather than just the portion of
the site that was not utilized for trailer court
C. Is there a need for the proposed zoning within the area or community?
The community is clearly in need of additional, quality retail space as well as a full service
hotel spa. This currently does not exist in Moab. Although during "on season" all lodging is full
within the Moab downtown and surrounding area, it is not the intent of the Applicant to compete
with the existing lodging inventory. Instead the development plan calls for a full service
hoteVspa with associated retail commercial space.
D. Is the proposed zoning classification compatible with the sun-ounding area or uses; will
there be adverse impacts; and/or can any adverse impacts be mitigated?
Page 82 of 92
At this time this property was zoned, the City felt it was an appropriate location for
commercial and as such they zoned the property not being used for a trailer court as C-3. The
result is that the front one third of the property is currently zoned C-3 while the rear two thirds
of the property was zoned R-4 to cover the existing trader court. The site meets the criteria
for C-3 zoning in that it is part of the existing commercial core, the streets are wide, clean and
well lit. There are ample pedestrian ways and vehicular parking.
There should be no negative impacts to the community since the roads, utilities, pedestrian ways
etc. are currently in place
E. Will benefits be derived by the community or area by granting the proposed zoning?
There are two significant benefits to the community to this rezone plan. First is the
closure of the trader court and development of replacement housing. This court is in very poor
condition, is not safe for residents in that few, if any, of the trailers would pass simple code
safety inspections. Additionally this court requires a severely disproportionate amount of City
police resources. This site is in desperate need of redevelopment.
The second benefit to the community will be the additional lodging and commercial space. Not
only does this add a new dimension to Moab by developing a type of lodging and commercial
shop that does not exist but will also be a significant source of tax revenue for the City.
F. Are adequate facilities available to serve development for the type and scope of
development suggested by the proposed zoning classification? if utilities are not available, can
they be reasonably extended?
All required facilities are to the property line. No extensions will be required.
G. Does the application conform with the provisions of the Moab general plan. the Land Use
Code, and applicable agreements with affected governmental entities?
The Applicant does believe this proposal conforms to the applicable provisions.
Page 83 of 92
17.04.070 Text amendment approval criteria.
It is the burden of the applicant to provide "good cause" to support a proposed text
amendment. For the purpose of establishing and maintaining sound, stable and desirable
development within the city of Moab, amendments to the Land Use Code are committed to the
sound discretion of the city council based upon the following nonexclusive list of criteria:
A. Is the proposed use substantially similar to other authorized uses permitted within the
subject zoning district?
Yes. As previously stated in this application, the City deemed this site appropriate for
commercial C-3 zoning and executed that zoning on the front portion of the site. This
application seeks to now rezone the rear portion of the site previously used as a trailer court to
C-3, consistent with the existing zoning on the front portion of the site and a large portion of
the surrounding area. Additionally, the C-2 zone district surrounds the site to the south and
west with the C-3 zone district sounding the eastern most third of the site on the north,. east
and south sides.
B. Is the proposed use a relatively new use type or development concept that was not
anticipated at the time of the adoption of the city's general plan?
Yes and no. The lodging and commercial aspect of the redevelopment of this site is not a new
use or development concept. The type of commercial and the type of lodging are new, at least
to Moab and may not have been contemplated at the time of adoption of the General Plan. The
proposed use however, does fit precisely within the C-3 zone district allowed uses, making it
consistent with the views of the general plan and the drafting of the C-3 zone district.
C. Is the amendment consistent with the policies and goals of the general plan?
See Section V., Compliance with 2002 General Plan above.
D. Will the amendment create significant adverse impacts upon neighboring properties within
or adjacent to the zoning districts which would be affected by the change?
The site is bordered by commercial zoning completely on three sides and a portion of
the forth with residential zoning across Walnut Lane to the north. As such, this does not
represent the introduction of zoning inconsistent with surrounding uses. The redevelopment of
Page 84 of 92
this parcel will not require the extension of city utilities or road system. Based on this the
Applicant does not believe that this proposal represents any adverse impact to the community.
E. Is it in the public interest to approve the proposed amendment?
It is clearly in the public interest to approve this request for zoning text amendment. The
proposed redevelopment of the subject parcel pursuant to the text amendment will close and
remove the trader court once replacement housing has been completed. This, in and of itself,
should be adequate benefit to the community to support this application. The redevelopment of
the site into a hoteVresort/spa with associated commercial will significantly benefit the community
by adding jobs, adding tax revenue, while adding an element to Moab lodging currently missing.
F. Is the amendment likely to lead to a positive redevelopment of a specific area or zone?
As previously stated this amendment will lead to the positive redevelopment of the
subject site, 7 plus acres, within the downtown core.
G. Will the amendment provide a variety of options for residents in terms of economic
development, affordable housing, or other benefits?
The redevelopment of this subject parcel pursuant to the text amendment will provide
significant economic stimulus to the community. The construction of a hoteVresort/spa with
associated commercial space will require several years of planning, design and construction
infusing tens of millions of dollars into the community. Once complete this development will
employee a sizable staff. The operation of this facility will provide significant tax revenue for the
City, on a site that currently provides no economic benefit to the city or the community at large.
The affordable housing benefit to this proposal has been discussed in Section IV above.
H. Is the amendment appropriate considering the existing conditions in the zoning district, the
established relationships between zoning districts, existing land uses and densities, and the
scale of both existing and proposed development?
Although the hoteVresort/spa and associated commercial space has not been designed
at this time, it is the intent of the applicant to comply with the dimensional requirements of the
C-3 zone district. Since this zone district surrounds the subject parcel on one site completely
and two sides partially, with the C-2 commercial zone surrounding the parcel on the south and
west sides, this proposed text amendment does not introduce a use inconsistent with
surrounding uses. For this reason the relationship between the redevelopment of this subject
parcel and surrounding parcels will be positive and consistent with the town vision when originally
zoned.
Page 85 of 92
From a land use standpoint, the governing rationale is to keep commercial and lodging activity
confined to the central core. This proposal conforms with that rationale. The boundary
definition of the commercial core could be questioned but that too has been defined by current
zoning. This subject parcel is surrounded by C-3 and C-2 commercial zoning. It appears that
the only reason a portion of this subject parcel was originally zoned R-4 was to accommodate
the existing trader court. This trader court will be closed.
From a building scale perspective, the surrounding buildings are two storey, pitched roof
construction but have the ability under current zoning to increase to the zoning limits, the same
zoning limits that govern this parcel if zoned completely to C-3. Timing then becomes a
consideration. Since the adjacent surrounding parcels as well as the front third of this subject
parcel can be redeveloped at any time to the commercial zoning limits, the argument simply does
not exist that this parcel will be out of scale with the surrounding property and uses.

February 25, 2011
Memo To: Honorable Mayor and Members of Council
From: Planning Staff
Subject: Approval of Ordinance #2011-02, Amending the Code to Specify the
Construction Materials for Parking, Loading, and Drive Access in all
Zones as Amended by the Planning Commission and Referred to Council
Discussion
The draft language in the ordinance was reviewed by the Commission during the February 24
meeting. Paragraph A, 1, a originally stated,
a. "Exception. In residential zones where required lot sizes are a minimum of one acre or
more and the driveway exceeds seventy-five (75) feet in length, the access driveway surface from the
public right of way shall be constructed with acceptable materials for a distance of not less than forty (40)
feet from the edge of the right of way. The balance of the drive may be constructed with unacceptable
materials given that all required parking areas shall comply with these regulations."
The suggested changes proposed by the Commission change the language to read,
a. "Exception. In residential zones where required lot sizes are a minimum of one
acre or more, the access driveway surface from the public right of way shall be
constructed with acceptable materials for a distance of not less than forty (40) feet from
the edge of the right of way. All required parking areas shall comply with these
regulations."
The ordinance in its entirety with these changes is attached for Council's review. It also needs
to be noted that language requiring paved drives already exists in the code. Chapter 17.66.050
Standards and requirements, for PUDs states:
"All parking spaces, parking areas and driveways must be hard -surfaced (paved) and
properly drained with no drainage running across public or private walkways. Hard surface shall
be paved concrete, asphalt or other pavement systems that perform similarly for the intended use
as approved by the public works director. All weather, nonpaved driveways and parking areas
may be permitted within planned unit developments containing three or fewer total dwelling

Driveway Surfaces
Drd. #2011-02
February 19, 2011
units. All nonpaved driveways and parking areas shall be approved by the public works
director."
Process
Page 2 of 2
As noted in a previous memo, the Code allows Council to adopt text amendments in Chapter
17.04.100, Action by City Council. Paragraph "A." without a public hearing;
"A. The city council may authorize any zoning map amendment or text amendment
by ordinance adopted at a public meeting, which shall be held following receipt of the
planning commission recommendation."
Paragraph B goes on to state,
"In its discretion, the council may elect to receive testimony or evidence from the
applicant, city staff, and the public prior to taking final action on the ordinance."
Staff has discussed this ordinance with Council on at least two occasions and reported
the need for greater detail on development plans. Adoption of Ordinance #2010-02 will provide
staff with a level of detail that is not at this time required and will aid the Planning Commission
and Council in making better informed decisions when reviewing development applications.
Recommendation
Staff agrees with the Planning Commission and recommends that this amendment to the code
be approved. This amendment will require that all uses have clearly defined parking, loading,
and access areas and will keep street maintenance costs down and reduce the possibilities of
broken windshields.
Alternatives
In its action, Council can:
1) Decide to hold a public hearing and establish a date;
2) Decide to not hold a public hearing and approve Ordinance #2011-02 as recommended
by the Planning Commission;
3) Approve Ordinance #2011-02 with any changes necessary to address concerns;
4) Vote to not approve the ordinance;
5) Table the ordinance in order to satisfy needs for additional information.

ORDINANCE #2011-02
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE CITY OF MOAB MUNICIPAL CODE, SECTION
17.09.270, OFF-STREET PARKING AND LOADING -ACCESS TO FACILITIES WITH
CLARIFICATION OF THE TYPES OF ACCEPTABLE MATERIALS FOR THE
CONSTRUCTION OF DRIVEWAYS, PARKING, AND LOADING AREAS
WHEREAS, the City Council ("Council") adopted the Moab Municipal Code ("Code") and especially

make the text more contemporary, align the language with Utah State Code, and address changing
conditions or modify development requirements; and
WHEREAS, the City of Moab Planning Commission ("Commission') in a duly advertised public
hearing held on December 9, 2010, to hear testimony and determine the merits of the changes to Code
Section 17.09.270, Off-street Parking an loading; and
WHEREAS, the Commission found that the proposed changes to said section would benefit the city in
reviewing all levels of development; and
WHEREAS, said amendments to Section 17.09.270 will benefit the residents and the City of Moab; and
WHEREAS the Commission unanimously voted to recommend that Council adopt the amended
language and that adoption of Ordinance #2011-02 as being in the best interests of the citizens of Moab;
