PLANNING & ZONING BOARD March 11, 1987 Page Eight must be separate and not physically attached to one another, and also to address the limit of square footage on attached garages (the current ordinance does not address this). Mr. Irwin stated that regardless of the intent when the current accessory building ordinance was put togethr, he preferred com- bining accessory buildings in some instances rather than to have several buildings scattered around a lot. Other Boardmembers pointed out that if square footage of all the allowed accessory buildings was to be combined, it could create one very large, unsightly building. Mr. Joe Hill was in the audience and stated that he lives on Sunrise, where the homes have around 660 square feet and he wants to build a 1,000 square foot detached garage. He felt the limit of 760 square feet for a detached garage was too small and that if 1,000 square feet is allowed for an attached, it should also be allowed for a detached garage. Mr. Prokop said that the Board should remember that the Accessory Building Ordinance took a lot of time to compile and 760 square feet was determined to be adequate for a detached garage. MOTION; Mr. Prokop moved to recommend to Council approval of an amendment to Appendix B, Section 4, Subd. 7 regarding accessory buildings as follows. Mrs. Nelson seconded the motion which carried with Mr. Joyer voting no.
