MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />NOVEMBER 25, 1998 <br />A UTHORIZINC, THE PU73I.IC WORKS DIRECTOR TO EXECUTE <br />THE AGREEMENT ON BEHAI.F OF THE CITY <br />The fore~oin~ resolution was duly seconded by LaValle. <br />Ayes (5) Scalze, LaValle, Morelan, Pedersen, Fahey. <br />Nays (0). Resolution declared adopted. <br />CLARIFY The City Planner reported that the issue of the cantilevered portion of a <br />SETBACK house extending into a required rear yard recently surfaced as a result of <br />ISSUE buildin~ permit application. The issue was discussed by the Planning <br />Commission and their concern was that the amount a cantilever can extend <br />into a required setback should be controlled. Therefore,the Planning <br />Commission recommended that the Zoning Ordinance be amended to limit <br />this extension to two feet. <br />Since the Planning Commission meeting, the Building Off"icial expressed <br />concern with allowing extensions into the required setback. The Building <br />Official feels it would be better to leave the rear yard setback at 30 feet for <br />the entire structure including any cantilevered portion. He also expressed <br />concern with interpreting what would be considered the main floor of a <br />house, which would be the point at which the setback measurement is <br />made. <br />Scalze reported that she agrees with the Building Official, and did not feel <br />that a cantilevered portion of a house should be allowed to extend into the <br />required setback. <br />Morelan asked if not allowing a cantilever in the required setback would <br />create any non-conforming buildings. The City Planner replied that he is <br />not aware of any, and pointed out that typically a rear yard is larger than <br />the 30-foot minimum. The particular situation that raised this issue <br />happened to have a very shallow lot. <br />Mr. Morelan introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: <br />RESOl. UTION NO. 98-11-276 - DIRECTING THE CITY PLANNER <br />TO PREPARE A ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT <br />CONSISTENT WlTH THE POSITION OF THE I3UII,DING <br />OFFICIAI ON THE ISSUE OF CANTII,EVERED PORTIONS OF <br />HOU.SES MEETING SETI3ACK REQDIREMENT.S, AND <br />SCHEDULINC A PUI3LIC HEARING FOR THE COUNCIL TO <br />CONSIDER THIS ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT THE <br />DATE AND TIME TO I3E DETERMINED ]3Y CITY STAFF <br />
