Staff has prepared a draft ordinance <br /> for consideration. <br /> Background/Update <br /> This is a continuation of the discussion beginning in June, regarding proposed changes for Accessory Building <br /> and Structure setbacks. The changes discussed thus far have been regarding the overall organization of the <br /> regulations in the Code, and whether or not adjustments to the existing setbacks are needed. <br /> At the meeting in September the Planning Commission provided feedback on a number of issues. Staff has <br /> prepared a draft ordinance based on the past feedback for consideration and discussion at the October <br /> meeting. The code has been reorganized so that a user can find the majority of the information regarding <br /> principal building, accessory buildings and accessory structure setbacks within the specific zoning district <br /> sections.Additionally, modifications were made in the Accessory Buildings and Structures, and <br /> Nonencroachment sections. <br /> The Planning Commission should provide direction on the following questions/topics: <br /> 1. Accessory Buildings & Oversized Accessory Building streetward of the Principal: exterior finish <br /> standards? <br /> 2. Increased the maximum size for an Oversized Accessory Building, and increased the total accessory <br /> building footprint totals for lots over 9 acres. <br /> 3. Flexible side setbacks based on non-conforming lot width were added to all R districts except for RR- <br /> 1A (5 acre district). <br /> 4. RE: Lakeshore lots. On lakeshore lots,the lake yard takes the place of the front yard.The table is <br /> meant to address both lake and non-lakeshore lots so it includes a column for Front/Street setbacks <br /> and a column for Rear/Street. Can this be better clarified? <br /> Direction <br /> To date, no public comments have been received. <br /> The Planning Commission should reopen the Public Hearing and receive public comments. The Commission <br /> should discuss the above topics and give Staff direction on the same. Any other Planning Commission <br /> questions or concerns should also be discussed. The Planning Commission may choose to move this <br /> amendment forward to the City Council; or table the application if further discussion or changes are <br /> warranted. <br /> List of Exhibits <br /> Exhibit A.
