Case #4: Request for a Conditional Use Permit to Exceed Height Restrictions for Accessory Structures; Case of William and Elizabeth Erhart Community Development Director Frolik stated that City Code restricts accessory structure building heights to 16 feet inside the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA). The total amount of accessory structure space allowed on a parcel is regulated by parcel size. The City received an application from William and Elizabeth Erhart for a conditional use permit to exceed the detached accessory building height established in City Code on the property located at 4740 154'~' Lane NW. The subject property is approximately 4.5 acres in size and is located within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA). The applicant is proposing to construct a detached accessory building that would be approximately 22 feet in height, which results in about a 6-foot deviation from City Code. The applicant would like to exceed the 16-foot height restriction in order to match the roofline of the principal structure and provide for additional overhead storage. The Planning Commission held a public hearing and reviewed the request on August 29, 2002. There was no citizen opposition during the public hearing. The Planning Commission recommended that the City Council approve the conditional use permit request.
