Summary of the Draft Zoning Code <br />23 August 2021 <br />Page 11 <br /> <br />3824 Huntington Avenue St. Louis Park, Minnesota 55416 <br />612-616-7768 bill@weberplanning.com <br />15 - General Development Requirements <br />Chapter 915, General Development Requirements, provides requirements such as <br />landscaping or parking that could be applied to a wide variety of land uses. <br />Some requirements are new, some were imported from the current code and a few are a <br />combination. Those in the current code may have been found in the existing Chapter <br />903, General Provisions, or in one of the district chapters. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Accessory Buildings <br />This section addresses all buildings on a residential lot other than the principal dwelling, <br />and, thus, includes detached garages, garden sheds, gazebos and accessory dwelling units. <br />Because some of these structures are also addressed in more detail in other sections, I <br />have cross-checked for consistency. The related sections are: <br />Accessory buildings permitted ........................................................................... Table 904-1 <br />Accessory buildings except garages ............................................ Tables 904-7, -11 and -15 <br />Accessory dwelling units ........................................................................................ 914.010 <br />Detached garages ................................................................................ 904.020 and 904.030 <br />Solar energy systems ............................................................................................... 914.220 <br />Swimming pools ...................................................................................................... 914.230 <br />This section reiterates dimensional requirements stated elsewhere in the code such as <br />setbacks, building height, rear yard coverage, the number of accessory buildings allowed, <br />special exceptions for garden sheds between the house and the side lot line, and Little <br />Free Libraries. <br />915 - General Development Requirements <br />Existing New <br />Accessory Buildings, Structures and Uses  <br />Building Materials, Exterior  <br />Corner Sight Triangles  <br />Drainage Plans / Erosion Control / Stormwater  <br />Driveways and Internal Access Roads  <br />Emissions  <br />Dwelling Unit Restrictions; Prohibited Types  <br />Essential Services  <br />Excavation  <br />Explosives; Flammable Materials 912 <br />Exterior Storage, Commercial or Industrial  <br />Exterior Storage, Residential  <br />Fences  <br />Landscaping and Screening  <br />Lighting, Exterior  <br />Loading  <br />Parking, Off-Street  <br />Relocating Houses or other Structures  <br />Tree Preservation  <br />Utilities, Private 
