To: From: Date: Chair Smith and Planning Commission Members Michael P. Gaffron, Senior Planning Coordinator fi'September 18,1998 ' Subject: Plumbing in Accessory Buildings - Revised Language /;i At your August 14 work session, Planning Commission directed staff to make specific language additions and revisions to the proposed code amendment which would regulate plumbing in accessory buildings. The requested changes have been made and are indicated in italics on the attached draft. Exhibit A. Also included is the staff memo and exhibits of July 16. Summary of Code Ameudment The proposed language for Section 10.03 Subd. 9F will generally regulate plumbing in accessory buildings as follows: 1. Allows issuance of permits for outside sillcocks and indoor water supply in all accessory buildings. 2. Allows issuance of permits for installation of fixtures requiring wastewater plumbing (other than bathtub or shower) subject to: a. Suitable septic system or sewer connection; and b. Owner must execute a covenant whereby owner agrees to: - No home occupation use unless approved or allowed by code. - No dwelling use except/unless via a guest house CUP - No rental/lease as a dwelling umt 3. Installation of a shower or bathtub will be allowed only via a "guest house CUP or a "plumbing in accessory buildings CUP". The propc ied language for Section 10.20 Subd. 3Q creates a new condifional VISS in residential zones to be known as "Plumbing in Accessory Buildings" for those situations where a bathtub or shower will be installed, subject to the same conditions noted in 2a and 2b above. Staff Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the proposed language, noting that a majority of the outstanding and anticipated requests for accessory building plumbing will likely not require a CUP under the proposed language. If Planning Commission finds the proposed amendment acceptable, a recommendation tothe City Council would be in order.
