r <br />Memorandum <br />Date: <br />To: <br />From: <br />RE: <br />June 17,2004 <br />Planning Conunisston <br />Janice Gundlach, City Planner <br />#04-3024A: Ordinance Revision Concerning Accessory Buildings and <br />Structures on **Through Lots” <br />Zoning Ordinance Section 78-1431 prohibits placement of any building on a “through <br />lot ” without obtaining a conditional use permi*. The Ordinance docs not specify <br />conditions that must be met in order to receive approval of a conditional use permit. <br />Because through lots have at least 2 frontages staff has required that the accessory <br />structures meet principal building setbacks in an effort to reduce negative impacts that <br />could arise with enforcement of the accessory setbacks alone, which means a building or <br />structure could get as close as 10 ’ from a lot line. This is the only requirement staff has <br />recommended when a conditional use permit request is made. <br />Attached is a Zoning Ordinance Amendment which eliminates the conditional use permit <br />requirement if the building or structure meets the principal building setbacks. The <br />Ordinance revision also requires discretion of the Planning Director on whether oth'r <br />negative impacts could arise depending on the lot. This could simply mean that <br />additional screening would be required in conjunction with construction of the building <br />or structure or a full Planning Commission review should the Planning Director deem <br />necessary. <br />Staff Recommendation <br />Recommend adoption of the attached Zoning Ordinance Amendment eliminating the <br />Conditional Use Permit requirement for accessory buildings and suaicturcs on through <br />lots.
