1 <br /> <br />WS – Item # 3 <br /> <br />WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT <br />Work Session Item No. 3 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Date: February 3, 2014 <br /> <br />To: City Council <br /> <br />From: Katie Larsen, City Planner <br /> <br />Re: Accessory Buildings <br /> <br /> <br />Background <br /> <br />This is a continued discussion from the September 3, 2013 and Novemb er 4, 2013 <br />Council Works Session meetings regarding the City ordinance on accessory buildings. <br />The Staff Report from the November 4 th meeting is at tached . <br /> <br />To summarize the situation, a homeowner in the Spirit Hills neighborhood submitted a <br />building permi t for a 16’x 20’ square foot detached accessory building. The structure is <br />18 feet in height and setback 5 feet from the side yard. All parameters of the zoning code <br />in terms of size, height and location are being met. <br /> <br />The adjacent neighbor, concerned a bout the size and location of the structure, contacted <br />City staff and emailed Council members suggesting the ordinance should be amended to <br />reduce the allowed size of accessory buildings. Council directed staff to review the <br />ordinance with the Planning & Zoning Board. The Planning & Zoning Board <br />recommended no changes to the current ordinance in regards to size, height or location. <br />The Board did suggest an amendment to allow for 1 attached garage + 2 detached <br />structures. The current ordinance allows fo r 1 attached garage + 1 detached structure not <br />too exceed 1,200 square feet. <br /> <br />It is the City’s understanding that the Spirit Hills neighborhood is governed by covenants <br />which restricts the size and height of accessory buildings. <br /> <br /> Requested Council Directi on <br /> <br />Staff has reviewed the current City ordinance in comparison to neighboring City <br />ordinances. Whereas the ordinances vary in terms of size and height, Lino Lakes is <br />comparable. Staff also reviewed previous history of building permits issued for detache d <br />accessory buildings. In the past 5 years, the City has issued 81 permits with no incidents . <br /> <br />Staff recommends no amendment to the ordin ance and suggests the adjacent property <br />owner pursue the covenants and restrictions of the Spirit Hills association.
