Zoning File #1625 March 8, 1991 Page 2 of 2 The current application involves a request to connect the existing garage with the adjacent open sided storage building. The final structure will not exceed the height of the open storage structure. Based on the 5.49 acres, the code would allow up to a 2,200 s.f. accessory structure. The current application involves a 1,293.9 s.f. structure. Per the Council's directives in the earlier review (application #1508), the subject structure can never be used for the keeping of animals. It is staff's understanding that Mr. Olson plans to use it for the storage of equipment now stored within the open storage structure and front yard. Staff has heard nothing from thcs neighbor to the west. Staff has received a response from the golf course owner to the immediate south who completely supports Mr. Olson's application. The dense mature plantings that exist between the residence on the property to the west and the improved accessory structure minimize the visual impact. If you have a chance to visit the site. Members will soon realize that the applicant's proposal will be a great improvement to the front/street yard. Cations of Action -* Denial. If denied, please refer to the necessary findings within the ordinances; or Approval. If approved. Planning Commission may consider one or more of the following findings or hardships; A. The placement of the house to the west and the presence of dense, natural screening within the side yard of the property will minimize the impact of the intensified accessory structure to the east. B. The proposed structure will have no greater impact than the existing accessory structures placed less than 10' apart. The following conditions are recommended with this approval: 1. The connecting of the two structures shall be subject to all relevant standards of the Uniform Building Code. 2.
