Jeff O'Neill, Assistant Administrator, reported Steve Birkeland was requesting an
amendment to a conditional use permit which would allow expansion of the outside
storage area at the Custom Canopy facility. The expansion proposed would more
than double the existing storage area. The proposed plan would extend the storage
area an additional 100 ft to the north and 50 ft to the west. Birkeland would
extend the screening fence accordingly.
In the past, City staff has noticed and documented the following activities at the
site that are not consistent with code.
Page 1 0
Planning Commission Minutes - 7/02/96
1. Space necessary for employee parking along the rear of the structure is
being used for storage.
2. Vehicles are parking in the ditch or on the rigbt-0f--way due to parking
space used for storage.
3. Material is being stored at an elevation higher than the screening
fence.
4. The existing screening fence is not 90% opaque as required by code. It
has been bent and broken down but is now fixed.
b. The gate to the storage area is always open. According to code, the
gate should be do" to assure proper screening.
O'Neill then listed conditions that needed to be discussed: a benchmark for future
construction should be established, the fence style should be enhanced, a guard or
protective railing should be added to avoid running into the fence, additional
plantings along Fallon Ave, expansion should allow more room for employee
parking, gate should be closed or add a partial fence on the inside so storage area
cannot be seen.
Steve Grittman, City Planner, added there is nothing in our ordinance that
regulates the size of outdoor storage. There are many ways to regulate the size of
outdoor storage; examples- percentage of the principal building, by the parking
demands, type of business, or a combination.
Chairman Frio stated if the City can justify parking then outdoor storage should be
regulated.
O'Neill added when the bridge over Fallon has been completed Custom Canopy will
be the entrance to the Industrial Park. Thia is another reason to require the
storage area to be well maintained. The Planning Commission should also consider
the effect of outdoor storage area in regards to storm water runoff and storm water
trunk fees.
Chairman Frio opened the public hearing.
Steve Birkeland, owner, drew on the overhead where an additional paint building
would be added in conjunction with the outdoor storage. He then stated his
business had tripled in the last three years and about ten employees work two
different shifts. The employees have been instructed not to park in the ditch and
with the expansion the parking this should be corrected. He has plans for another
building within a year.
Page 2 O
Planning Commission Minutes - 7/02/96
Commission Bogart added a wood fence will deteriorate faster and require a high
amount of maintenance. He prefers slats in industrial storage areas.
Joe Merchak, Chief Building Official, stated according to code a fence should
withstand 80 m.p.h. winds.
Steve Birkeland replied the fence he constructed was supposed to withstand 80
m.p.h. winds but did not.
Chairman Frie stated the industrial park is not intended to be Beverly Hills but
certain requirements need to be enforced. Every building should be required to
have a sign. Chairman Frie asked Mr. Birkeland if he was aware of the conditions
on the original cup.
Birkeland was aware of the screening and parking conditions but his business has
grown so fast he has not kept up with the details. He was not aware of the gate
being open all day and the expansion should correct the parking.
Chairman Frie Closed the public hearing.
The Commissioners discussed the screening and it was agreed a combination of
slats and evergreen trees would provide the beat solution. A combination of the two
will break the monotony of a large fence along the street and still provide adequate
screening of the outdoor storage.
COMMISSIONER CARLSON MADE A MOTION, SECONDED BY
COMMISSIONER BOGART, TO APPROVE THE AMENDMENT TO THE
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT ALLOWING EMPANSION TO THE OUTSIDE
STORAGE AREA BASED ON THE FINDING THAT THE OUTSIDE STORAGE
WITH THE CONDITIONS AS NOTED IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
CHARACTER OF THE AREA AND CONSISTENT WITH THE PURPOSE OF THE
I-2 ZONE:
1. THE ENTIRE FENCE SYSTEM MUST BE REPLACED WITH A FENCE
AND TREE SYSTEM THAT ACHIEVES 9D% OPACITY.
2. PLACEMENT OF SUITABLE MATERIALS AS A BASE TO CONTROL
DUST, ECT.
3. PLANT ADDITIONAL EVERGREEN TREES TO THE EAST AND NORTH
SIDE OF THE LOT IN ACCORDANCE WITH CODE AND APPROVAL OF
CITY STAFF.
4. PROVIDE ADDITIONAL PARKING AREA OR ALTER USE OF EXISTING
PARKING AREAS NOT BEING USED FOR STORAGE.

Planning Commission Minutes - 7/02/96
REMOVE GATE AND INSTALL A SECTION OF SCREENING FENCE AT
LEAST 50 FT. IN LENGTH AT A RIGHT ANGLE TO THE EXISTING
FENCE, THUS PARTIALLY SCREENING THE OPENING TO THE
STORAGE AREA WHEN VIEWED FROM THE RIGHT-OF-WAY.
OUTDOOR AREAS SHOULD BE USED ENTIRELY FOR STORAGE AND
NOT USED FOR PRODUCTION ACTIVITIES.
Motion passed unanimously.
Steve Grittman, City Planner, reported in review of the City's existing accessory
building regulations it is unclear whether maximum area requirements are to
include (or exclude) attached garages. Past city policy has been to exempt attached
garages from the maximum area requirements stipulated in the ordinance. Thus,
the listed area requirements apply only to detached accessory structures. The city
policy needs be clarified. The City Council could be asked to established a
moratorium on this issue until regulations for accessory structures on small lots can
be studied. Grittman gave four possible options:
1. Retain Existing Regulations . clarify the terms accessory building and
accessory use.
2. Institute a maximum lot (building) coverage requirement.
3. Relate maximum accessory structure area to a percentage of the principal
structure area.
4. Reduce existing rear yard coverage percentage. (rear yard calculation)
5. Prohibit detached accessory structures upon small lots.
The Planning Commissioners discussed the report by Grittman and asked Joe
Merchak, Chief Building Official, his opinion for enforcement.
Merchak requested more time to research the item.
COMMISSIONER BOGART MADE A MOTION, SECONDED BY
COMMISSIONER CARLSON, TO TABLE THE CONSIDERATION TO AMEND
THE GENERAL REGULATIONS UNTIL THE NEXT REGULAR MEETING,
PERTINENT TO ACCESSORY STRUCTURES UNTIL STAFF CAN FURTHER
RESEARCH THE ISSUE. ALSO, RECOMMEND TO THE CITY COUNCIL AN
EXTENSION OF THE MORATORIUM FOR 10 DAYS. Motion passed
unanimously.

Planning Commission Minutes - 7/02/96
Steve Grittman, City Planner, reported Marvel Trunnel is requesting a simple
subdivision that calls for moving the lot line between Lot 2, Block 2, and Lot 3,
Block 2, River Terrace toward Lot 3 a distance of 10 ft.. The eastern wall of the
existing house on Lot 3 is located directly on the current lot line. Moving the lot
line 10 ft. to the east will result in establishment of the property setback for the
eastern boundary of Lot 3. The lot width of Lot 2 will be reduced by 10 R to a width
of 80 ft, which meets code requirements. In addition to this simple subdivision, a
small triangular piece of land between the river and Lot 3 will be separated from its
original parcel and attached to Lot 3, resulting in Lot 3 having complete access to
the shore line between the east and west boundaries of the property.
Chairman Frie opened the public hearing.
Casey Fjellberg, realator forTrunnel, explained years ago there was a survey error
and the garage is on the property line. A simple subdivision would correct this and
allow Maravel Trunnel to have a buildable lot.
Marvel Trunnel, owner of property, stated she requested this simple subdivision to
allow her to sell one lot and keep the other lot to build on in the future.
Chairman Frie closed public hearing
COMMISSIONER BOGART MADE A MOTION, SECONDED BY
COMMISSIONER CARLSON, TO APPROVE THE SIMPLE SUBDIVISION
BASED ON THE FINDING THAT THE SUBDIVISION PROPOSED IS
CONSISTENT WITH CODE REQUIREMENTS AND WILL RESULT IN
SETBACK CONFORMANCE FOR THE EASTERN BOUNDARY OF LOT B
WITHOUT CREATING A NONCONFORMING SITUATION ON AN ADJACENT
LOT. Motion passed unanimously.

Plea am _ Apphennt„ Investors To$n h r
Joff O'Neill, Assistant Administrator, reported a few months ago Investors
Together had requested a zoning ordinance amendment and conditional use permit
which would have allowed an oil/lube facility to be attached to the existing car wash
at the Riveroad Plaza complex. The Planning Commission approved the request
and recommended approval to the City Council. The City Council disagreed with
the recommendation made by the Planning Commission. It was their view that
establishment of an oil/lubo facility in a PZM zone was not appropriate because the
oil/lube facility was not, in their view, the type of facility that is consistent with the
purpose of the PZM district. They were also concerned that it would be difficult to
Page 5
Planning Commission Minutes - 7/02196
enforce the condition that customer must obtain service `while you wait". The
concern was that people would drop cars off at the site for overnight and all -day
service and that the use of the facility would be in a manner similar to a major auto
repair site.
The Planning Commission is being asked by Investors Together to consider calling
for a public hearing on amending the zoning ordinance. The Planning Commission
or City Council must initiate the process because a number of parcels will be
affected by any potential zoning map amendment in this area and because it is
difficult for Investors Together to get the signature d every potential property
owner that might be affected by the zoning map amendment. Planning Commission
is asked to discuss the matter and consider whether or not to call for a public
hearing on changing map and teat for land use designations and rules for the PZM
areas designated on the official zoning map. Staff recommends waiting until the
Monticello Community Partners (MCP) receives information on the traffic studies
being conducted.
Ken Schwarze, applicant, was confused as to why the Planning Commission would
pass the request for a Quick Lube 4 to 1 and the City Council would unanimously
deny the request. Schwarze added that he had tacked to many of the neighboring
property owners and most of them were in favor of the Quick Lube.
Dean Hoglund, applicant, stated this impression cuss the City Council thought it
was a good idea but not in a PZM zone.
O'Neill added there is a considerable amount of discussion regarding the traffic in
this area. Would it be better to wait until the MCP studies are completed before
continuing the rezoing?
Chairman Frie's recommendation was to call for the public hearing and put the
issues on the table, open this to the community for discussion.
The Commissioners discussed other areas that are pending in this area that could
bo affected by this decision: changing Cty Rd 76 to a four lane, using 7th Street as
main thoroughfare through town, prohibiting truck traffic on Cty Rd 75, creating a
way to slow traffic down on Cty Rd 75 with stop signs. and traffic volumes.
CHAIRMAN FRIE MADE A MOTION, SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER
CARLSON, TO CALL FOR A PUBLIC HEARING ON AN ORDINANCE TEXT
AMENDMENT CREATING A NEW "B" ZONE AND INCLUDE ZONING MAP
AMENDMENTS IN THE RIVERROAD PLAZA AREA. Motion passed unanimously.
The Commissioners discussed the implementation steps addressed in Jeff O'Neill,

Planning Commission Minutes - 7/02196
Assistant Administrator, letter June 19, 1996. The items that should be added to
the list of work activities were: discussion on pole buildings, extend pathway
system, create a safe pedestrian crossing over I.94 and at a location on West River
Street, follow up on conditions that applicants are required to do, and address
outside storage. O'Neill would formate the items into a budge form and send to
Parks Commission and HRA for their information and feed back.
Jeff O'Neill added that it might be beneficial for a representative from the Planning
Commission to be on the MOAA, Monticello Orderly Annexation Area. This is an
important link in the planning process.

RE:
Monticello - Zoning Ordinance Amendment - B -3A District
FILE NO:
191.05 -96.08
Conadderation of an Amendment to floe Mor0cello Zoning Ordinance estebilahing
anew Zoning Dlatrkt known as "8,1A. Neighborhood Automotive Related Use
Dietrict". Applicant • Monticello Planning Conardsslon.
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
The City recently fumed down a request to add Aaomotive Maintenance facilities, such
as Oil and Lube shops, to the B-2 or PZM Districts, which would have allowed hvestan
Together to construct such a facility rear the Tctel Mart station on east County 76. A
follow up approadi berm proposed is the ostatillshrnwn of a limited business district in the
area which would permit the type of Commercial estaNshment requested by Investors
Together- However. thero was concern that a B-3 District would not be eppropriste in this
location, since it would allow the full range of automotive related uses.
As a result a modified B-3 Distriq U baied'B.W to proserned for the Citys consideration.
This district is anOed to allow limited oommerdal uses which are of a convenlerice nature
and compatbb with , � '.. — J residerdial uses. Shos the discussion of this issue was
generated by the tnveetore Together proposal for a all/lube facility, stat! !las , .... 1 1. 1 ., J
tlds use into the now district, utilizing the criteria which were discussed In the previous text
amendment proposal

RLIG-01-1996 1500 NRC 612 995 9837 P. 03/M
The need for this district essentially eines down to whether the City believes that its
current zoning districts do an adequate job of providing a full range of business
opportunity. Staff has suggested that there is a need for a better definition of downtown
commercial in order to accomplish the objectives of the Comprehensive Pian. The oil/lube
facility would currently fa within the B3 District along with other auto -related businesses,
and the City was not tndhW to change this at the time of the previous request. The
Monticello Community Partners have also been studying these issues, pi h,= ly from the
perspective of the effect on downtown commercial center activity.
The concern which was raised over the 'Automotive Maintenance' use, as distinguished
from'Automoth a ReW is that it would be difficult to regulate the maintenance use and
keep it dim expandahg into a more Intensive activity. For instance, the ordinance suggests
that the intent of the Conditional Use is to allow'whI& you -waif services. Assuming that
the business will have busy periods, some stadcmg and parking of vehicles will probably
occur. This becomes a problem for the City when the storage Iasis for more then a few
minutes. Is one hour too long? One afternoon? All day? The City would be required to
monitor how long individual vehicles are being stored on-site to ascertain compliance.
Moreover, as the busirms grows and expands its range of services, this problem could
became more intense.
A second concern to whether or not such facilities we truly 'neighborhood convenience
commerciar. It has been wgpeated that neighborhood converderm infers frequent trips,
such as the convenience store, the gasoline station, or even the car crash. Under this
demotion, automotive maintenance would be excluded since It Is WwIY to attract business
from any perticutar consumer at a rete of one trip per every two or three months. With
such infrequent patronage, such a use should be located in areas of similar patronage.
Approve the Zoning Ordinance Amendment ereaWg a'B-A District, as submitted.
Approval of the amendment should be based upon findings which ktW*fy a need
for the zoning ditbid to provide adequate business opportunity, in conformance
with the Comprehensive Plan.
Approve the Zoning Ordinanea Amendment avathng a'B-W District, as amended
In discussion.
If the city belkrves that the 53A District is an important tool to provide, and control,
business opporamty, but that the flet of proposed uses in the draft district ordinance
needs to be dhanped, lifts Alternative should be d=en. The City should Included
findings as to the need for the new district in achieving the goals of the
Comprefhanalve Plan.

Consideration of Rezoning property currently zoned "PDM" east of the City's
M,:,, .,: t ealnu d plan and north of County 76. Applicant - Investors Together
and (Monticello Planning Commission.
A- REMUtICE AND BACKGROUND:
This rezoning request has been initiated by Investors Together to elect their property
Wong Cw* Road 75, and has been a tpanded by the City to include consideration of the
:,.,. :,,. zona g in the aft area. Linked to fMs request Is the onion of a rww
commercial zoning district, and subsexluently,. Investors Togettwfs request for a
Conditional Use Permit for an Automotive Maintenance facility.
At issue is the current PDN designator of the land in this area The Pal district Is e
mined use district which allows a full range of residential uses, from 0*19 family to
multiple family, and all of the commercial uses In the 18-1 and 8-2 d dri tt. 83 District
Uses are not allowed in the PDN area The flexibility given by the PZM approach also
cartes with a certain amount of cohfuslon. Under P1M, neither the City nor the property
owner have a dear pft ne of what lend uses should be allowed. Wlth&A fhit direction, the
property owner can not know whet the City expects, and the City may be faced with
requests for land uses which it doesn't want but cannot reasonably decry.

As a result, we believe that a better definition to the pattern of mnmg in this area would be
beneficial. H the City adopts the B -3A District, this would Ikely be the most appropriate
cornmercial desigrhatbn for at least a part of the area. if the City does riot adopt the B -3A
District, a choice must be made between B-2 and Bim. In either scenario, Cie extent of
commercial zoning should be cW hed, so as to better determine the appropriate uses on
other area property.
The hAre lend use of the aree at to Junction of County Roads 75, 39, and 118 is affected
by several Issues, One of Che Comprehensive Plan Issues which received a great deal of
attention is the traffic on Coamty 75 between the downtown area and the Interstate.
Among the options considered were tret>9c calming efforts abrhg Broadway, potential re-
routing of through traffic to ancifrer locatkm and n4auh ng the anent patten In order to
benefd downtown business. Monticello Community Partners are currently studying the
possible options, particularly in view of the impacts to downtown business.
In our view, the network of mpjor transportation outlets in this area jusffy a certain level
of commercial land use in this area. The Comprehensive Pian suggests that the City's
primary commercial areas will be the downtown area north of W. and the emerging
growth area south of W. Mohr mw, limned convenience commercial is importarht in other
areas to avoid overritilitatim of mejor commercial zones. The very concept of
convenience commercial Is to ahtbw comparatively low volume, short duration trips to occur
outside of the main commerciel districts. For many Monticello residents, the area in
question is an area which is frequented in daily traffic pattems. This area makes sense
as a site for a small conccerhtratlon of cahverhiencce commercial activity.
The question becomes whether the appropriate zone should be 8-2 or 8,3 (or B -3A if
approved). The B-3 District ab" several automotive related WM uses, including
automotive repair, motels, and other similar uses. The B-2 District albws primarily low
Intensity retail uses, and some limited convenience uses, Incli4ing carr washes and
convenience store/gasoline st0lbns. Essentially, the 8,2 District attempts to capture
existing local traffic, whereas the 8.3 District attempts to capture both local and non -local
tref ir.
With these guidelines In mV4 tthe B,2 District would be arpprapriate C the City believes that
the traffic in this area should be either deflected to other routes, or kept tit place. This is
because If the traffic Is rerouted, it would be assumed that the purpose was to put to
traffic where d can best borhefd the oommerael areas identFM h Che C—., : , :., Ivo Pten.
If the tragic is to be MR in place. d would be assumed that the purpose of this choice would
be to continue to entourage fist traffic to get to the cow bwrh area as afficiently as
possiblo. Under either scenario, a B-3 District would be IntemepWhg a share of the non -
local traffic, counter to the objective of the traffic plan.
Wille a certain amount of owmarknce traffic Is non -local as well, the primary objective of
the 8.2 District is to serve local traffic. Thus, the choice of salving of traffic would be
Inalavent to lino success of Che dhtrict and the B-2 uses would 'oanpete' less with other.

more Intense, commercial districts.
As to the e)ft. of the commensal district we have provided a proposed map which would
delineate a limited amount of land for commercial rezoning at this time. Since Oils district
is not intended to be a primary business zone, regardless of Zoning designation, limiting
its size is considered important to helping ensure the success of the other commercial
areas in the City. Residential uses are therefore shown for the other PDN zoned land in
the area.
Due to the high traffic levels and proximity to the Ir terstate (and its associated noise),
these areas are not viewed as prime single family development tend. 1Me would
recommend that the City consider mid- to high-density residential uses for these
pncpertiea. Zoning for these uses would be accomplished at a future hearing. In order to
maim i n control of berth density end quality of design, we would recommend consideration
of a Planned Unit Development District desonstiom
Approve a nsmo it of the subject area, as Muetrated on the attached Map 1, to the
new B -3A District.
This altemative would be appropriate if the City approves the amendment to the
Zoning Ordinance which creates the B -3A DlsM Suggested findings would
include the CWe Idem to permit limited convenience and auto4slated commercial
uses in this high-volume commuter traffic route.
Approve s n3Zof1I1p of the subject area, as illuatrOn on the attached Map 2, to the
B-2 Distrlct.
This afternsWe would be appropriate if the city believes that limited convenience
commercial land use in the area Is needed to provide reasonable commercial
opportuNty to the east side of the community, but to avoid competition with the
primary commercial areas as designated In the Comprehensive Plan. Findings
should Include a statement m to the compatibility of ft proposal with Bre
Comprehensive Plan objectives and land uses.
Approve a rseacir" of the subject area, as illustrated on the attached Map 3, to the
B-3 District
This aherneWe would be appropriate if the City believes that due to bastion and
traAic CapaCitl. the area ethould :... , , n,,: more Intanshre OOfhmerolel sea than
the B-2 orB-3A Districts allow. Suggested findings would Include discussion of
raft volumes piwo t in the area due to commuter traft. through treffic, and the
proximity to the high Sdwd and Hospital campuses.

Consideratlon of Arttending the Zoning Ordnance by establishing Unfits for
detaehod accessory buildings and garages.
Attached to this report Is the information submitted for the July Planning Commission
meeting discussing options for the City's reguleHon of aooeasroy buddinps. In that
material. staff offered a number of alternatives to dsrlyhV the City's regulations for
detached accessory buiWW an small residential Iota. Disoussion at that meeting, and
between staff members. has resulted In the attached alternative. This option (Exhibit D)
would relate the size d detached accessory buildings to the site of the roar yard (10% as
sugpusOed In the previous draft crdrttance EMN C) but drop the relation to the site of the
principal building. The building of iciel has suggested 10 this would be cumbersome to
adminiater, even though it may be a reasonable measurement of the buildln4s status as
accessory to the prindpel use.
Based on the Com m anion s discission and otter action taken with previous epplicstions,
this alternative also sets a Oveshhold of 400 square feet which all single and two family
residential dwellings would be entftie to, regardless of building or lot site.
CU
a1G02-1996 08:07 NRC 6125% 9837 P.03/17
a. ALTERNATl1 E ACTIONS:
1. Approve an Ordinance amendment (Exh(bit B) which ciarifies the Citys current
language as applying exclusively to detached accessory bufktirtgs, and keeps the
current size restrictions (1,000 square feet).
2 Approve an Ordinance amendment (Exhibit C) which restricts the amount of
accessory building by relating the atze to the size of the rear yard and the size of the
principal building.
3. Approve an Ordinance amendment (Exhibit D) which restricts the amount of
accessory budduV by retettrq the size to the size of the rear yard, and spedticaly
permits all &In& and two family dwellings to have an accessory bolding of at least
400 Square feet
4. Take no action and leave the Ordinance as oarenty written.
Staff believes that Alternative 4 Is hMpropriate due to the corAgdon over its application
to attached garages. Therefore, one of the tint three alternatives should be chosen, or
other language is developed reflecting the Citys concerns h this area. As rested
previously, Exhibit C relates the site of the accessory bWWV to both the lot and the
tto ses. Plannh RSH believes tact Qts impact of an e=moay building is measured by lts
relationship to these conditions. However, Building ,,,, , o stag nates that tying the
etre of the accessory buildetp to fie house size would be cumbersome to administer, and
recommends altemetive 3. We have included all ift.. ation from the prevbtn patrol to
assist In the review of this issue.

Monticello Planning Commission
FROM:
Bob iannis/Stephen Grittman
DATE:
27 June 1996
RE:
Monticello - Zoning Ordinance - Accessary Building Requirements
FILE NO:
191.06 -96.02
1. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND
This memorandum is intended to evaluate the adequacy of the Citys existing accessory
building requirements. Of specific Isaw is the adequacy of such requirements as they
apply to Iota less than 10,000 square feat in area on which a moratorium currently exits.
ISSUES
Edsilhsg RegufsUan
Appllce6 ty Polley. In review of the City's existing accessory building regulations (see
Exhibit A), it is unclear whether maximum area requirements are to include (or exclude)
attached garages. Past City Polley has been to exampt attached garages from the
maximum area requirements s9pulaated In the ordinance. Thus, the listed ersa
requirements appy only to detached accessory struchm. Regardless of whether any
charges of 'substance• are proposed it is recommended that the ordinance be revised to
clarify City policy.
Bullding Ares Requnlnemients. Currently, private garages are listed as permiNed
accessary uses In the R-1 and R-2 DiaWas. Garage eros is limited to 1,000 square feet
and may not occupy more than 26% of the rear yard. Such requirements raise concern
over whether an additional detached double garege is an appvoprfate use of land in
association with small slrlgta formly or twinhoome lois, particularly if many such owners take
advantege of the current standards. H taken full advantage of, the rear yards of several
40 foot wide twlnhome Iota may appear cluttered and over built.

ReguhWon Ilttemadvea
If the City wishes to control this potential Intensity of use, the following alternative
approaches should be considered:
Option 1 - Retain Existing Regulations. An initial option to be considered would be to
simply retain the existing accessory building requirements attached as Exhibit A H such
option is desired, it is . ..,,,,o,,, ad that the existing ordinance language be amended to
Oarify City policy In terms of applicability. As noted previously, it has been past City
practice to apply such standards only to detached accessory buildings. Attached as
Exhibit B is a draft Zoning Ordinance amendment which simply clarifies the applicability
of the current standw and provides specific definition of the terms 'accessory building'
and 'accessory use'.
The following is a listing of pros and cons associated with retaining the City's existing
standards:
Ease in administrative handling and citizen understanding.
May result In scale problems as no relationship to open space or principal building
size is required.
Option 2 - hnatibite a nuWnun lot (buAding) coverage requirement. A second option
would be to impose a maximum lot coverage requirement. For a minimum twinhome tot
(40 feet by 150 feet), a 1,2W square foot unit and a typical ettaehod double garage would
comprise about 28 percent lot coverage. With a 30 percent maximum, a tool shed sized
building would be the only extra lot coverage possible. With a 35 percent maximum, e
double garage would be posslble. The 30 percent maximum would permit an additional
single car garage.
The following is a listing of pros and cons associated with this option:
Pros
Would ensure proportionate retention of open space on all lots.
May encotuage Interior storage (depending upon lot coveree percentage)
CU
ALC -02-1996 OB: OB MC 612 5% 9B37 P.0 /17
Corte
• Principal building additions could be discouraged by such mean• of regulation.
• Administrative review of building coverage is necessary.
• Larger principal dwelling footprints may prohibit construction of justified amessory
storage spa.
• May discourage interior storage (depending an percentage).
• Inequitable accessory storage allowances.
OpIk a 3 - PA10 rnai mtue accessory structure area to a per m sage of the p tneipat
sbu t<ue area A second option would be to limit garage and accessory structure square
footage to a percentage of the principal strMum For instance, a home of 1,200 square
feet could have a detached double garage with an accessory !wilding threshold of 35%.
A Minhome would have to contain at least 1,600 square feet to qualify for the equivalent
of an additional detached three car garage at the 35% ratio.
In calculating the area of the principal structure, it is recommended that such calculation
apply to livable floor area (as amently defined wthin the ordinance) so as not to penalize
homes which have multiple stories.
The following is a listing of pros and cons associated with this option:
Pros
• Such regulation would establish a fbced relationship between dwelling unit living
area and accessory storage space.
• A desirable building scale may be maintained.
• May encourage Interior storage (dope. rig on lot coverage percentage).
Cons
• Question arasb as to whether such standads should apply to bung footprint area
or total finished square footage.
• Administrative calculation of floor areas necessary for all requests.

0
ALG -02-1996 08:08 NAC 612 595 9857 P.07.'17
• Larger principal building areas and accessory storage areas would result in loss of
open space.
Option 4 - Reduce aldsstlng rew yard Coverage percentage. A fourth option is to utilize
the same approach being used currently, but reduce the size thresholds. On atypical'
twinhome lot, the rear yard might be wpected to be from 2,000 to 2500 square feet in
area The cunwd regulation of 25% would allow an accessory building of 500 to 625
square feet in this rear yard, a two and one-half to three ear garage sized building.
Reducing the rear yard lot coverage could reduce the impact of accessory structures In
twinhome areas. A maximum of 10% rear yard coverage would limit the twinhome lot to
an accessory building the size of a single car garage.
The following Is a listing of pros and cons associated with this option:
pros
• Insures consistent amount of open space in rear lot ares.
• Accessory building size allowance not related to principal building size.
Cons
• Administrative calculation of rear yard area necessary.
• Accessory building size allowance not related to principal building size.
• May result in increased outdoor storage.
Option 5 - Prohibit detached accessory structures upon small lots. Finally, the City
could choose to alimina0e detactred accessory sbvcbzw upon small lots (i.e., -10,)00
sq.R.). Marry contemporary twinhorns developments may already do so with private
covenants.
The following Is a listing of pros and cons associated with this option:
Pros
• Would preserve roar yard ops► speco.
• No administrative review.

CU
AW -02-1996 18:18 NAC 612 595 9837 P.BB/ 17
Cons
Equitable "atment of all twinhome residents.
May not adequately respond to resident needs.
May discourage further property investment.
May not sufficiently acknowledge e4stence d single family detached dwellings on
small lots.
Large Lot Applicability
While the focus of this memorandtun is on accessory storage requirements as they apply
to small lots, several issues raised may hold applicability to the City's larger single family
residential lots as well. The concept of establishing a reasonable relationship between
accessory building size and lot/principal dwelling site may have applicability to all single
family residential lots within the City. In this regard, the City may wish to apply such
regulation to ell residential zoning districts.
While a simple clarification of the existing ordinanoe language would have no impact upon
existing accossory building allowances, an amendment such as that attached as Exhibit
C would alter the amount of allowable accessory building space. For example, a home
with 2,000 square feet of livable area on a 12,000 square foot lot could potentially have
e detached accessory structure of 700 square feet (35% of livable area), provided such
structure area would not ooeupy more then 10% of the rear yard area. With a typical rear
yard area of 5,600 square feet, however, it can be anticipated that a maximum accessory
building size on a typical R-1 Distrid (12,000 square foot) lot would be 560 square feet.
R. A TERNAT IM ACTIONS.
Adoption of amendments to the accessory building and use section of the Zoning
Ordinance which clarify the Ordinance language and continue pest City practice of
permitting a detached accessory building of up to 1,000 square feet on residential
lots, in addition to existing, attached garages. This Alternative is shown as the
proposed Ordinance in attached Exhibit B.
Adoption of amendments to the accessory building and use section of the Zoning
Ordineneo which plaos restrictions on the amount of detached accessory strucWe
which may be placed an residential lots, In proportion to both the size of the lot, and
the size of the principal structure. This Alternative is shown as the proposed
Ordinance In attached Exhibit C.
D
AL&e2-1996 08:09 NRC 612 595 983? P.09. -l?
3. Tabling of aebon an any emendrnerds, subject to other Issues and policies identified
by the City or public. If one of the two proposed Ordinances do not adequately
address the issues and objectives of the City, alternative language should be
discussed for future consideration. Such Iswes may include a Change in the City's
position on whether both detached accessory structures and attached accessory
uses (such as atlacted garages) should be sumjaet to these regulation& Past City
practice, and the proposed Ordinances, do not include attached garages in the
calculations.
If the City believes that some amount of accessory building should be allowed on small
lots, we would : .. , :. J a combination of Option 3 and Option 4. This relates the size
of the accessory building to both the principal buik k% and the lot, which would help to
keep the building in scale with Its neighborhood. By applying the conhbined test of no more
Ow 35% of livable area of the princlpal building or 10% of the rear yard, whkihever Is
less, a home owner would hem the oppoMA* to construct a limited amount of accessory
building, but should not be able to overwhelm the property. A draft Zoning Ordinance
amendment reflecting such recomniendetion is attached as Exhibit C.
