STAFF REPORT
The Planning Manager recommends approval.
Staff is proposing that the Zoning Ordinance be amended to correct a
typographical error and to clarify the providing of electrical power to
an accessory structure.
The proposed changes are as follows:
Sec. 28.04.003(c)(5)(E)
(E) No more than sixty (60) square feet of or fifty (50) percent
of the maximum sign area, whichever is less, shall be
dedicated to electrical changeable copy.
Sec. 28.04.008(b)(7)
(7) Accessory buildings. An accessory building may be erected
as an integral part of the principal building or erected
detached from the principal building and it may be
connected therewith by a breezeway or similar structure.
An accessory building attached to the main building shall
be made structurally a part and have a common wall with
the principle building and shall comply in all respects
with the requirements of this chapter applicable to the
main building. When a property owner owns two adjacent
lots and wishes to erect an accessory building on the lot
that does not contain the main building, the accessory
building must straddle the adjoining lot line. Any
electrical service to an accessory building shall be
serviced from the main building. No separate electrical
meter will be allowed on an accessory building.
