Councilmember Specht aye <br /> Councilmember Woestehoff aye <br /> Councilmember Heineman aye <br /> Councilmember Howell aye <br /> Councilmember Riley aye <br /> Mayor Kuzma aye <br /> Motion carried. <br /> 7.04: Adopt Ordinance#22-04 Amending Section 117-349 of City Code to Allow Accessory <br /> Dwelling Units (ADU's) <br /> Deputy City Administrator/ Community Dev. Director Hagen stated this ordinance is up for <br /> adoption this evening. It was last seen by the Council on January 11, 2022. The context of the <br /> ordinance hasn't changed since that time. He made a point of clarification that the last time the <br /> Council read this, the agenda case noted an acreage size of two and a half acres whereas the <br /> ordinance called out a one-acre minimum. One-acre minimum is what is being recommended by <br /> the Planning Commission. He stated no other comments or questions were received since the last <br /> meeting. <br /> Motion by Councilmember Howell, seconded by Councilmember Woestehoff,to waive the charter <br /> requirement to read the ordinance aloud and adopt Ordinance 422-04 to Allow Accessory Dwelling <br /> Units. <br /> Further discussion: <br /> Councilmember Riley commented that they are calling this "mother-in-law suites"but there is not <br /> a requirement that members be related. This is going to allow renters to have space in residential <br /> areas in an additional unit and he thought that is going to cause City code enforcement issues and <br /> nuisance issues. He expressed concerns that property rights end when someone else's property <br /> rights come in. He stated he would not be supporting this. Councilmember Musgrove commented <br /> that she will not be supporting this either. She stated when she thinks of single family dwellings <br /> with now more housing units on the area with two families, it did not have continuity with single <br /> family housing and there would be a variety of issues that would complicate it. She stated if there <br /> was a district for it or some way to regulate it, it may work. <br /> A roll call vote was performed: <br /> Councilmember Musgrove nay <br /> Councilmember Specht aye <br /> Councilmember Woestehoff aye <br /> Councilmember Heineman aye <br /> Councilmember Howell nay <br /> Councilmember Riley nay <br /> Mayor Kuzma aye <br /> City Council/February 8, 2022 <br /> Page 9 of 23 <br />
