nonconforming with this change. He commented that he does not have a problem with a wider driveway. Commissioner Anderson noted that 30 feet of street access is allowed. Chairperson Bauer stated that his example would have that width at the driveway but then the driveway would widen to the third stall garage and then an additional bump out on the side. He noted that it would give the equivalent of a three-car garage driveway to homes with two car garages. Commissioner VanScoy stated that perhaps the width of the driveway at the garage could go 15 feet past the garage to provide that additional space. Senior Planner McGuire Brigl commented that would be allowed under the language as proposed. She provided additional clarification. Commissioner Walker stated that he would have an issue restricting motorbikes, go-karts, or snowmobiles. He stated that it is more of a property size issue. He stated that there could be a family with four children that race motorbikes or snowmobiles, and they should be allowed to store those items. He noted that if those families are on five or ten acres,they should not be limited on those items. Senior Planner McGuire Brigl noted that section of the ordinance was not included in the update. She stated that if desired, staff could review that section and bring it back for additional review. Code Enforcement Officer Raines noted that this language only applies to outdoor storage. She noted that typically people with large lots keep those items indoors. Commissioner Gengler asked if there are complaints received for those types of items. Code Enforcement Officer Raines commented that the complaint that brings staff to the property is not related to those items, but those items are noticed when staff visits the property. It was determined that this item would be pulled from the Consent Agenda and would come back to the Commission with additional detail to review. 2.04: Discuss Ordinance #21-20 Home Occupation Revisions Code Enforcement Officer Raines reviewed the staff report. Chairperson Bauer asked the square footage needed for a vehicle. Senior Planner McGuire Brigl replied that a standard two car garage is 400 square feet. She stated that there have been a lot of Home Occupation Permits and this has not been an issue as people tend to have a lot of storage. Planning Commission/ October 28, 2021 Page 6 of 8
