He indicated the second aspect is the nature of the road; it is pretty well <br />improved, alth6ugh not to City standards. He stated the third aspect is the relative nearness of <br />the development of a road due to the impending development to the north. <br /> <br />Board MemberiBrauer asked if Mr. Meloche had come in and said he wanted to have a house for <br />his caretaker, could he do that without needing a variance. <br /> <br />Assistant Community Development Director Trudgeon stated that situation was allowed on a <br />property to the West, and was processed as a conditional use permit. He indicated at the time that <br />request came inlthey allowed a caretaker's residence in the Code as a conditional Use Permit, but <br />they no longer have that provision. He is not sure how they would do it if that kind of request <br />came in. <br /> <br />Board Member Brauer noted they have seen many variances over the last several months for <br />oversized acceSSory structures, which they routinely approve. He questioned why they could not <br />have requested that for the property. <br /> <br />Board of Adjustment/October 2, 2003 <br /> Page 4 of 9 <br /> <br /> <br />
