This memorandum summarizes a proposed amendment to the project scope of work to include additional drafts of a new DDC and adjustments to the public outreach strategy, including additional documentation of feedback from stakeholders. Clarion was hired in 2012 to prepare a limited assessment of the DDC and make targeted updates. The project included reorganizing and reformatting the DDC to make it easier to read and use, plus substantive edits in specific areas: primarily removal of barriers to infill and redevelopment and streamlining the review procedures. Clarion produced several documents under the original scope of work: 2013 Assessment Report Draft reorganization/reformat of the DDC Draft update to Subchapter 2: Administration The Assessment Report was presented at meetings in Denton with the City Council and other groups. With the exception of the Assessment Report, Clarion did not receive substantive feedback on the other draft deliverables. There were unsuccessful attempts to communicate with the s project manager on review status, next steps, and overall project schedule. In 2016, after a hiatus during which the Denton Plan was adopted and city personnel changed, the city determined that a more comprehensive update to the DDC was necessary, instead of the targeted updates anticipated under the original SOW. An amended contract was executed authorizing Clarion to draft a broader range of substantive updates to the code to implement the Denton Plan and address other issues. The drafting work was divided into three modules: 1) Administration/Procedures (building off the preliminary work done under the initial contract); 2) Districts/Uses; and 3) Development Standards. Planning | Zoning & Land Use | Real Estate | Sustainability & Resiliency Contract 5053 Amendment 3 DocuSign Envelope ID: 55137904-C9CD-49C3-8E76-28C9B5BF6021 Attachment 1 aĻƒƚͲ 55/ ЋЉЌЉ ƩĻǝźƭĻķ {h‘Ͳ aĭ5ƚƓğƌķͲ Ʀ͵ Ћ In that November 2016 contract amendment, city staff was scoped to lead updates to the Administration and Procedures subchapters with minimal involvement from Clarion, while Clarion took the lead on Districts/Uses and Development Standards. In early 2017, city staff initiated a second amendment authorizing Clarion to take the lead on updates to the Administration and Procedures, as well. Since that time, Clarion has completed or is in the process of working on the following tasks: Two memos proposing approach to updates for the Districts and Uses, and the Development Standards (since these issues were not covered in the 2013 Assessment Report) Staff and public drafts of the Districts and Uses subchapters A staff draft of the Administration and Procedures subchapters Partial public draft of the Administration and Procedures subchapters (based on comments delivered to Clarion on September 8, 2017) Public open house Districts and Uses: June 2017 Development Standards stakeholder outreach meetings: August 2017 Public open house Districts and Uses with preview of Administration and Procedures and Development Standards: September 2017 Development Standards internal drafting of this module has begun but has not been delivered to the city: October 2017 a meeting with staff on September 28 and subsequent phone conversations is that a more substantive rewrite of the DDC is required, with the primary focus being to prepare a streamlined DDC that meets minimum statutory requirements (with less deference paid to earlier drafts of the DDC). Secondary focus areas are a streamlined review process and best practices for development standards. In addition, the new code should carry forward the draft zoning districts already prepared and introduced to the public, since these have been prepared based on the new Denton Plan and are important tools for implementing that plan. Additionally, the city wishes to adjust the public outreach strategy for the DDC 2030 project to solicit additional public feedback and identify additional stakeholder groups. This revised approach will public on DDC 2030 matters. Although this new approach may seem to be a step back in terms of overall progress on updating the DDC, this revised approach to preparing a new code will allow Clarion and new City leadership to take a fresh look at the project based on new guidance from community stakeholders and new City policy direction. The following section describes specific work tasks to accomplish this new project direction. These would be additional tasks and structured as amendments to the existing Clarion contract. Additional Task 1: Prepare Assessment Memorandum Clarion will prepare a new Assessment Memo to supplement the prior 2013 report. While the earlier 2013 version was targeted and addressed just a handful of issues, the brief memo (10-12 pages) will document recent stakeholder feedback and place review procedures and development quality standards (such as landscaping, parking, and building design), which were Contract 5053 Amendment 3 DocuSign Envelope ID: 55137904-C9CD-49C3-8E76-28C9B5BF6021 Attachment 1 aĻƒƚͲ 55/ ЋЉЌЉ ƩĻǝźƭĻķ {h‘Ͳ aĭ5ƚƓğƌķͲ Ʀ͵ Ќ either not addressed or covered in a limited manner in the 2013 report. The goal will be to lay the groundwork for a new code that primarily meets minimum statutory requirements. Prior to drafting this new Assessment Memo, Clarion will facilitate an additional round of in-person interviews with both internal and external Denton stakeholders (scheduled for November 13-15). These meetings will be arranged and organized by Denton staff. The Assessment Memo will identify and/or confirm key policy issues to address through the DDC update, and will build a new foundation for the DDC update compared to the 2013 Assessment. The Assessment Memo will be drafted in two stages: an initial staff draft that will be reviewed by a core staff team, and then, following one round of consolidated staff comments, a public draft that will be distributed to the public. The Assessment Memo will be presented to the public concurrently with the updates to the administration and procedures in Task 2, below. Additional Task 2: Draft Updates to the Denton Development Code Based on the new Assessment Report, Clarion will prepare two additional modules of draft updates to the DDC: 1) Administration and Procedures, and 2) Development Standards. For each of these modules, Clarion will prepare an initial staff draft for review by an internal core team. Following one round of consolidated written comments, Clarion will edit the materials and prepare a revised public draft for distribution and community discussion. Administration and Procedures. The existing Clarion scope called for development of a new Administration module (Task 2.1.A), and that was prepared and submitted to staff (both staff and public drafts). However, following recent staff changes in the fall of 2017, the City now contemplates a complete rewrite of this section of the DDC and will not carry forward the draft already prepared by Clarion. The focus of the new versions will be on ensuring compliance with minimum statutory requirements as well as implementing any internal process improvements being developed by new City leadership. (While the prepared by prior staff was an important foundation planned direction for revising procedures.) We understand that the City is working simultaneously on revising internal processes (e.g., interdepartmental coordination, tracking of project records, and referral comments). While these internal efforts will be led by City staff, it will be important to coordinate them with example, if the City substantially revises the site plan review procedures those changes may need to be codified in the new DDC.) Development Standards. This is another module addressed in the existing Clarion contract, and one for which Clarion has already completed substantial work (Task 2.1.C). The staff draft contemplated in the original contract is partially completed. As with the Administration and Procedures module, Clarion will now start fresh with a new draft Development Standards module, based on the direction to be established in the new Assessment Memo. Additional feedback on these issues will be sought from both staff and other stakeholders in the new stakeholder meetings. Our August 2017 meetings (especially with other city departments) showed that there is significant work to be done coordinating the DDC update with the work of other departments, particularly regarding the updates of the various criteria manuals. The new Assessment Memo should identify issues related to this topic that should be addressed in the new DDC. Contract 5053 Amendment 3 DocuSign Envelope ID: 55137904-C9CD-49C3-8E76-28C9B5BF6021 Attachment 1 aĻƒƚͲ 55/ ЋЉЌЉ ƩĻǝźƭĻķ {h‘Ͳ aĭ5ƚƓğƌķͲ Ʀ͵ Ѝ The third module of the new DDC deals with Districts and Uses. That draft module has already been prepared and presented to the community and we do not recommend any changes to that material in this updated project approach. That Districts and Uses module should be carried forward (with any additional comments from City officials or the public) and integrated into the new draft DDC. If substantial additional edits to the Districts and Uses are anticipated based on either public or staff input, then that information should be conveyed in the Assessment Memo. Additional Task 3: Meetings with Focus Groups, Advisory Group, and Other Stakeholders Adjusting the public outreach strategy for the DDC 2030 project will allow the city to build support for the code update based on a foundation of transparency and trust. Following conversations with new City leaders, additional stakeholder interviews, Clarion will work with staff to develop an outreach plan that provides multiple creative options for obtaining and responding to stakeholder feedback. This could include a new dedicated advisory committee that provides feedback on all parts of the new code, or new topic- specific focus groups that provide feedback on targeted parts of the code, or both. We understand that work is underway to assemble stakeholder groups, which may extend beyond the DDC to include dialogue on development services in general. The draft budget accompanying this memo sets aside additional hours to be devoted specifically to this task on a per-trip basis. Following these additional tasks, the remainder of the DDC 2030 project would continue as outlined in the original SOW, as revised by subsequent amendments. Budget for New Tasks The following table summarizes additional budget for the tasks described above. In Additional Task 2, the budget accounts for a complete rewrite of the Administration/Procedures module, not a rework of the existing draft. The revised budget includes a minimum of four additional two-person trips. Note that the Additional Task 3 is a per-trip cost; only one is included in this budget, but additional trips would be at the same rate.
