Accessory Buildings <br />Katie Larsen, City Planner, explained that staff was directed by the city council to discuss <br />regulations regarding accessory structures with the members of the planning and zoning <br />board. <br />Ryan Thompson, 6573 Sioux Lane, addressed the board to state that he was concerned <br />with an accessory structure that was being built on his neighbor's property. He <br />considered the structure to be too large and too tall for the area. He brought the matter to <br />the city's attention to find out what is allowed. He stated that he would have to put a <br />berm and a fence in order to mask the structure being built. <br />Board members discussed allowances for height, size and number of accessory buildings. <br />Following discussion, members recommended that the current ordinance be amended to <br />allow for: <br />Accessory structures should remain limited to a 20 foot maximum height. <br />On parcels less than five acres, up to two detached accessory structures should be <br />allowed in addition to one attached garage. <br />B. Sign_. Regulations <br />Michael Grochala, Community Development Director, reviewed some considerations <br />regarding the city's signage requirements based upon the last review by the board. <br />Board member comments included: <br />Could the city rezone all existing churches as Public /Semi - Public? <br />Could the city consider allowing signage based on lot size or street frontage? <br />A business should be allowed a sandwich board at any time as long as the business is <br />open. <br />DRAFT MINUTES <br />• <br />• <br />• <br />
