<br />MEMO <br /> <br />DATE: March 30, 2001 <br /> <br />TO : Planning and Zoning Committee <br /> <br />FROM: Jim March <br /> <br />RE : Ordinance #4 Amendments <br /> <br />............................................................................ <br /> <br />There are several amendments that need to be made to Ordinance #4. The <br />amendments are in regards to the following items: <br />. Swimming pools <br />. Mini-storage <br />. Minimum and maximum residential setbacks <br />. Therapeutic massage <br /> <br />SwimmiW! oools <br /> <br />ISSUE <br />Presently, Ordinance #4 - Division 65: Accessorv Structures and Uses <br />states that "Combined aggregate square footage for accessory structures may <br />not exceed two hundred (200) square feet or two percent (2%) of the lot area <br />whichever is greater." <br /> <br />An above and in-ground pool would be considered accessory structures, if <br />they require building permits. The size requirement is very restrictive <br />especially for in-ground pools. We have received an inquiry in regards to an <br />in-ground pool and the stated accessory structure size maximums do not <br />make sense for this type of use. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />I would recommend that in-ground pools either be made exempt or the size <br />limitations be increased to something similar to a maximum of 50% of the <br />rear yard. <br />
