MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION JULY 13, 1995 requiring a CUP is to ensure that the additional accessory building space is not being used for a business, and make sure that the garage is in scale with the size of the house. The Planner stated that the all accessory building or garage space is considered, whether attached or detached.. Schletty pointed out that the Wilson home has no basement, therefore, additional garage space is needed for storage purposes. It was noted that the City Planner's report dated July 10, 1995 recommends approval of the CUP request. Mr. Garske recommended approval of the Conditional Use Permit to allow a garage addition which would result in total accessory building area exceeding 1,000 square feet as requested by David and June Wilson, 636 Keller Parkway. Motion seconded by Carson. Motion carried 5 - 0. ZONING The City Planner presented the proposed Zoning Code CODE amendment relating to Conditional Use Permit AMENDMENT standards. The Planner reported that the amendment RELATIVE expands the standards by which CUP requests are - TO CUP'S judged as well as puts the burden of showing compliance with these standards on the applicant. The Planner pointed out that one of the additional standards provides for architectural consideration of CUP applications. Schletty asked if this proposed amendment is a response to a recent request to move a house into an existing residential neighborhood. The Planner replied that it was. The Planner stated that there are a number of ways to approach such requests, one of which might be to adopt an infill building ordinance. When Council reviewed that option, they felt it was too burdensome from an administrative standpoint. Garske asked the difference between proportion and scale. 2 Page 13
