NEED-There is a need to restrict the placement of accessory structures in relationship to the principal structure when the accessory building is used for a h=e occupation, The Zoning Ordinance dimensional requirements would rel,trict the place ment of all structures to 401 from the right-of-way and 201 from each lot line. Staff feels additional setback requirements would be helpful in maintaining the residential character of an area. Staff recommends that no change be made in 6.16.6.1 since an accessor� structure is not allowed to be used in conjunction with the home oc, pation. Section 6.16.1.2 should be changed by adding item g)If an accessory structure is used for a home occupation the following must b'e met, 1. The accessory building shall be set back at le, 30 feet farther from the road than the residence. 2. The accesso-i-y bui.I.,'t- ing shall not be closer than 40 feet to the side and rear property line: 3. The accessory building shall be adequately screened from view of the road and the adjacent property by a densely planted evergreen hedge of shrubs or trees. 4. Any outside storage of materials for use in the home occupation shall be totally screened from the road and from adjacent property in the same manner as the accessory structure. The storage area shall not exceed 500 square feet. The minimum s'etback from the side and rear property lines shall be the same as for the accessory building. Proposed Section 6.16.12 should be added to Section 6.7 and should read: Accessory structures shall not be erected in .any required front setback or any closer to the street or road right-of-way than the residence, whichever is greater. This provision shall apply to lots les, than 200,000 square feet. On lots with an area greater than 200,000 square feet the accessory structure shall meet all applicable dimensions", requirements. (PACT: The proposed changes should help to maintain the residential character of an area with smaller size lots, and allow flexibility in the placemen- of accessory structures on larger lots. ECOMMENDATION: Planning Staff recommends the, proposed changes go to Public Hearing on November 22, 1982 for public comment.
