Limiting the number, size, location, height, and appearance of accessory <br />buildings in residential zoning districts allows for such storage while <br />- pFOtecting the residential areas of the community from excessively large and <br />. obtrusive accessory buildings. <br /> <br />3. Limiting the size of accessory buildings also maintains open space on <br />residential parcels. This open space is important for the absorption of <br />surface water run-off, allows for more air movement between lots, and helps <br />_ maintain the livability of residential neighborhoods. <br /> <br />4.0 STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />4.1 Based on the findings outlined in Section 3.1, staff recommends that Section <br />1004.01(A) of the City Code be amended as detailed in the attached ordinance. <br /> <br />5.0 SUGGESTED PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION <br /> <br />- <br /> <br />5.1 By motion, recommend approval of the attached ordinance (An Ordinance <br />Amending Section 1004.01A of the Roseville City Cod), based on the findings <br />outlined in Section 3.1 of this report. <br /> <br />Attachments: Ordinance Amending City Code <br />60-Day Time Limit Not applicable. <br /> <br />Prepared by: Dennis Welsch (490-2232) and Kim Lee, AICP (490-2236) <br /> <br />Q:\Planning Files\3047 _Minor Variances\RPCA(1 01498}.doc <br /> <br />PF3047 - RPCA (10/14/98) - Page 2 of 2 <br />
