The regulations currently permit an applicant to add a second <br />garage by CUP, and also construct an accessory shed on the property of 120 square <br />feet or less. One of the reasons for permitting the additional garage space is to ensure <br />that single family properties are not cluttered with miscellaneous recreational <br />equipment, vehicles, or tools. <br />There has been a suggestion that in granting a permit for a second, or oversized, <br />garage, that the property owner would forego the ability to have an additional shed <br />structure on the property. Under this regulations, it would be presumed that the <br />applicant would be able to construct a garage of adequate size, and not require the <br />shed for additional storage. If appropriate, staff will forward a recommendation to the <br />City Council on this item. <br />Pc: Kathy Glanzer <br />Steve Westerhaus <br />Lee Elfering <br />Greg Schroeder <br />
