Planning Case No. 552-99 [Public Hearing] Property Involved: 2091 Terrace Drive Consideration of Planning Commission Resolution 578-99, a Resolution Recommending Approval of a Conditional Use Permit for an 1,040 square-foot Over-Sized Garage • Applicant: Gerald Miller, Property Owner The applicant was present. Planning Associate Ericson gave the staff report as follows: The applicant, Gerald Miller, is requesting a conditional use permit (CUP) to construct a 1,040 square-foot garage at 2091 Terrace Drive which is located north of County Road I near the eastern border of the City. The property, an interior lot, is approximately 13,050 square feet. . e . A • -- . . . 5 I" 555 $ • 1" • .i h the detached garage situated behind the house. The house, at approximately 926 square feet, is presently larger than the existing two-stall garage, which is 506 square feet. The applicant will be removing the present garage to make room for thenew one. There is an 80 square foot (8 x 10) shed behind the existing garage which is set far enough back so as not to be in the way of the proposed garage. A CUP is required, in this case, due to the size of the proposed garage. The size of the proposed garage would be 1,040 square feet, which is not much larger than the house. While it would be larger, there would not exist the "imbalance" which has been present in the last few over-sized garage CUP requests. The applicant proposes to construct an addition to the rear of the house in the following year which would again make the house bigger than the garage. The proposed . location of the garage does not interfere with the future expansion plans nor the existence of a shed in the back yard.
