In conjunction with an existing 480 square foot <br />attached garage, a total of 1,488 square feet of accessory storage space would exist on <br />the property. <br />The conditional use application was originally considered by the City Council in August <br />of last year and denied. The City Council suggested that the applicants reduce the size <br />of their accessory building to 550 square feet to eliminate the need for a CUP. <br />The applicants contend that a 1,008 square foot accessory structure upon their property <br />would be aesthetically consistent with the surrounding neighborhood. <br />The subject property is zoned R -1, Single Family Residential. <br />Attached for reference: <br />Exhibit A - Site Location <br />Exhibit B - Site Plan <br />Exhibit C - Building perspective <br />Exhibit D - Accessory Garage Survey <br />Exhibit e - Applicant Correspondence <br />
