Item No: 56 <br />Meeting Date: July 6, 2016 <br />Type of Business: Planning Case SP -202-16 <br />Summary <br />Accessory Dwelling Units are one solution to providing housing diversity in <br />neighborhoods. ADU occupants are likely to include adult children, elderly parents, <br />college students, personal caretakers, and other residents. ADU's may provide extra <br />income to property owners, and allow multi -generational families to live separately <br />under one roof. However, the only difference between an ADU and a duplex is its <br />appearance. Appearance can be subjectively interpreted. If the ordinance is amended, <br />consideration must be given as to how the City will administer and enforce ADU <br />requirements. <br />Recommendation <br />Staff recommends that the Planning Commission review and discuss the draft <br />ordinance amendment, and provide Staff with direction if to proceed as -is, or to amend <br />as needed. <br />Respectfully, p� <br />Jon Sevald, AICP <br />Planner <br />Attachments <br />Summary of other ADU Ordinances <br />ADU Example Floorplans <br />Article: St. Paul considers `granny flats' as affordable housing option along Green Line <br />Resolution 1054-16 <br />
