He suggested this be tabled until the first meeting in November. If this goes too far into the fall we lose the capability of installing them. Mayor Pickar stated the Council probably has more questions now than after the first meeting concerning tie downs. MSP ( Pickar- Shelquist) that this matter of amending Chapter 43 of Ordinance No. 253 entitled Mobile Homes be placed on the November 8 council agenda Councilmember Baumgartner stated that the State will probably not have their recommendations available by the November 8 meeting. It may go on until January or March. Mayor Pickar stated that setting this item for November 8 does not mean it will be settled but we should have more information on it. Attorney Meyers suggested that someone from the State be invited to this meeting. 5 ayes The meeting was then recessed for ten minutes and reconvened at 11:20 p.m. REVIEW CHAPTER 40.03 SUBDIVISION 4 (4) ENTITLED ACCESSORY BUILDINGS IN RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS. Mayor Pickar stated that at the last Council meeting when this was discussed it was sent back to the Planning Commission to find out their feelings. Four of the Commissioners want it to stay with the 145 square feet, two want 216 square feet and two want to delete the special use provision and make it a variance. It does not appear that the majority want it changed. Councilmember Hodges stated he would like to see the buildings larger so that boats and such could be inside, but since there were four Commissioners that wanted to leave it at 145 sq. ft. he would go along with leaving the ordinance as is and discussing each case. Councilmember Baumgartner stated that 145 sq. ft. is about 12'x12' and if you drive around you will see boats and other equipment sitting outside. He feels the Council should increase the size to 216 square feet and have anything over 216 sq. ft. require a special use permit. Councilmember Rowley stated that a 12'x12' building is too small and would favor the 216 square foot building which would be 12'x18'. A special use permit should be required for anything larger. Councilmember Shelquist stated he was surprised at the Planning Commissions' reaction because he thought they would want the increase. Part of their discussion was on the assumption that Council had already decided on the 216 sq. ft. He feels that 145 sq. ft. is an adequate building and if the Council raises it, it will open the door to more raises. Councilmember Shelquist reviewed the Peterson and Lestina requests and stated he would like to leave it at 145 sq. ft. and hear other requests as a special use permit. This would prevent these buildings from becoming garages and industries in residential areas, which is a concern of his.
