Background
The applicant would like to construct an accessory building in the rear yard of a 2.14 acre parcel. They have an existing attached garage that is 805 square feet, and they are proposing to add 1,536 square feet with the new detached garage. The total garage/accessory space would be 2,341 square feet. The original zoning approval for this development requires any property to acquire a conditional use permit for garage/accessory space that exceeds 1,200 square feet.
The accessory building that is being proposed is a building on a poured concrete slab with smart lap siding and brick veneer. Prior conditional use permits have required the accessory structures to be compatible with the house, and at the least, the color of the house. The proposed structure does meet those requirements.
The applicant will install an asphalt driveway to the proposed structure. The driveway will be 12 feet from the side property line. In order to construct the driveway five trees will be removed from the property. The property owner will be required to plant five new trees to replace those taken out.
There is a small shed located in the rear yard of this property at this time. The applicant intends to remove this shed when the new building is constructed.
The owner intends to use the new building for storage for personal belongings.

By motion, approve the Resolution.
