CASE REQUEST FOR A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR AN OVERSIZED ACCESSORY BUILDING; CASE OF DAVID AND GAIL HENNEK By: Chris Anderson, Community Development Assistant Background: The City received an application from Singco Builders, representing David and Gall Hennek, for a conditional uso permit to exceed the accessory building size restrictions established in City Code on the property located at 16100 Wolfram St NW. The following items are enclosed for your information: a) Site location map b) Proposed Site Plan c) Cross sections and building elevations for proposed structure d) Draft Planning Commission meeting minutes dated October 2, 2003 e) Proposed findings of fact f) Proposed conditional use permit Notification: State statute requires notification of the public hearing to property owners within 350 feet of the subject property. Staff sent out notices to all property owners within 350 feet. Observations: The subject property is approximately 1.12 acres (49,310 square feet) in size and is located outside the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA). According to City Code, the property is eligible for 1,664 square feet of accessory building space. The proposed building will be 1,408 square feet (32' x 44') in size. Coupled with the existing garage (704 sq. ft.), the applicant would have 2,1 l 2 sq. ft. in accessory building space. This results in an overage of 448 square feet. The applicant would like to exceed the size restriction in order to construct a detached accessory building that would accommodate the storage df private use vehicles and equipment. The proposed detached accessory building will be located in the rear yard. The proposed accessory building location will meet and/or exceed all setbacks established in the R-1 Rural Developing District. The applicant has legally obtained an easement from the adjoining property owner to utilize their driveway for access to this proposed structure. The concrete slab for this proposed structure has already been poured. This work occurred prior to the approval of the conditional use permit and the building permit, and without a required inspection. All work has since been halted until a determination has been made regarding the request for a conditional use permit for an oversized accessory structure. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on October 2, 2003, and there were no verbal or written comments submitted regarding this request.
