AGENDA ITEM Item No.: 7 Date: June 10, 2019 Item Description: LA18-000057 — City of Orono Text Amendment: Plumbing in Accessory Buildings — Ordinance & Summary Ordinance Presenter: Melanie Curtis Agenda Consent Agenda Planner Section: 1. Purpose. To adopt an ordinance and summary ordinance regarding changes to Accessory Building and Structure setbacks. Background/ Summary. In December, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 222 and Summary Ordinance No. 223 regarding changes to the regulations relating to accessory buildings and accessory structures. This was a comprehensive amendment meant to capture all of the language changes/edits we determined necessary as well as provide a thoughtful revision to the required setbacks of both accessory buildings and accessory structures. The requirement for the building to be "conforming with respect to location, size, and height" was intended to be removed from each of the conditional use sections of the preceding sections, to be replaced with language consistent with the adopted language in Section 78-1437. The revised ordinance corrects the inconsistency. 2. Planning Commission Vote and Comment. In May, the Planning Commission opened the public hearing for this text amendment. It was discussed and the Planning Commission voted 7 to 0 on a motion to approve the proposed ordinance and summary ordinance. 3. Public Comment. To date no comments from the public have been received. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED. Council should consider adopting or amending the draft Ordinance and Summary Ordinance. Exhibits A.
