CU2010-004; Consideration of a Conditional Use Permit for an Oversized Garage. Applicants: Robert & Lori Nordby, 8191 Spring Lake Road Planning Associate Heller stated the applicants, Robert and Lori Nordby, are requesting approval of a conditional use permit to construct an oversized garage on their property at 8191 Spring Lake Road. The applicants want to expand their current 22'x 24' detached garage (528 square feet) with a 20`x 24' expansion onto the rear of the existing garage. The City limits the size of accessory buildings to a maximum of 952 square feet without City approval of a conditional use permit. The garage the Nordbys are proposing would be 1,008 square feet. She added that with this project the applicants would be creating more indoor storage since there are no other accessory buildings on the property, and they can store their boat inside. The expansion would be to the rear of the building, so the garage would still appear to be a two -car garage from the street. The addition would increase the value of the property and the expansion would not be out of character for the area. Chair Stevenson questioned if this would be an adequate minimum size. Mr. Robert Nordby stated the addition would be slightly smaller in width and the peak of the roof will be lower. Commissioner Schiltgen asked if there was going to be a garage door on the new addition. Mr. Nordby stated there would be a walk through door and an 8 foot garage door on the backside. MOTION/SECOND: Commissioner Schiltgen /Commissioner Rundle. Resolution 933-10 Recommending Approval of a Conditional Use Permit for a 1,008 square foot Oversized Garage located at 8191 Spring Lake Road. Ayes —4 Nays — 0 Motion carried. 6.
