Latest version.
  • (a)

    Outdoor recreational facilities such as athletic fields (e.g., football, soccer, etc.), basketball courts, tennis courts, and swimming pools are permitted as accessory uses in INST and IC zoning districts with operating conditions. Outdoor recreational facilities shall not be used beyond 9:00 p.m. on Sunday through Thursday, and beyond 10:00 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. The City Council may permit extended hours of use for special events on a case-by-case basis.

    (b)

    Accessory buildings and structures (e.g., houses, restrooms, bleachers) associated with outdoor recreational facilities shall meet all set-back requirements and height restrictions for INST and IC districts. Facilities may be approved for outdoor lighting if the design and site plan, submitted for issuance of a development permit, is found to avoid or mitigate spill-over effects, safety hazards, or nuisances potentially created during operating conditions.
