Section 10.03, Subdivision 9 (F): Accessory Building-Plumbing: Installation of any combination of Fixtures requiring wastewater plumbing that includes a toilet, shower or bathtub shall be allowed only in an accessory building that is conforming in location, size and height. Application Summary: The applicants have applied for a conditional use permit to allow plumbing in an accessory building. The accessory building will be used as a “work/storage room". It will be detached, 32 ’ x 60 ’ (1,920 s.f.), and located north of the residence. The work/storage room will be used for personal use and will include a bath room with sink and toilet. The property is located in the RR-1A zoning district. The City of Orono allows for the provision of plumbing in accessory buildings that includes a toilet, shower or bathtub. The accessory building is required to be conforming in location, size, and height. The accessory building (detached garage) does conform to location, size and height requirements set by code. In September 2002, the applicant applied for a building permit to construct the accessory building. Before a permit was issued setback, size and height requirements were reviewed for conformity. The accessory building meets all setback requirements for the RR-1 A zoning district. When the permit was issued the applicant was informed of the need for a conditional use permit. On-Site Septic System: The subject property is serviced by an on-site septic system. The location of the storage building will not interfere with the current septic system or future sites within the property. The existing septic system is conforming but located on the other side of the property and residence. The applicant is planning to install a holding tank because the accessory building is located at an elevation and distance where hotAing into the existing septic system is not technically feasible. The holding tank will be used for hadiroom facilities only. The garage will not have any laundry or shower/tub facilities. The accessory structure does not qualify frtnn the Zoning Code or Building Code to be used as a guest house or dwelling unit. The
