<br />City of Little Canada – Accessory Structure Ordinance Updates <br />Planning Commission Meeting – October 23, 2025 <br />12 <br />Table 905-5: Detached Accessory Buildings, C-1 District <br />Maximum <br />Number <br />Maximum <br />Total Area <br />1 30% of the <br />footprint of <br />the principal <br />building 5 <br />1. Detached accessory buildings include garages, sheds, workshops, gazebos, pergolas, and other <br />roofed structures. <br />2. Structures that are open-sided or partially enclosed (such as pergolas or gazebos) are classified as <br />accessory buildings if they are roofed and detached. <br />3. Small incidental structures (≤50 sq ft) are exempt from building limits but must meet placement <br />standards (see Section 915.020). <br />4. No permanent structure (one attached to frost-free footings) shall be located in an easement <br />unless the easement is amended or otherwise allows such structures. A non -permanent structure <br />may be located in an easement but may have to be moved if the easement-holder demands. <br />5. Accessory buildings may not cause a lot or development site to exceed applicable yard, lot- <br />coverage, or impervious-surface standards established in this Code. <br />6. Conditional Use Permit (CUP) may be considered to allow additional buildings or area (see <br />Sections 914.130 and 915.020). <br /> <br />Commented [BH17]: Per the September Planning <br />Commission meeting, we did not want to automatically <br />prohibit/condition detached accessory structures on <br />commercial and industrial properties but we did not want to <br />allow a ton either. This is in-line with how some nearby <br />communities handle this issue.
