Specifically, the Housing Plan encourages reinvestment into existing housing to provide increased functionality to retain families within the community to maintain a quality neighborhood. 5.2 The existing attached garage is a small two stall garage that has limited storage options, especially when tow vehicles are parked inside. Further, the existing shed is ages and in need or repair. Hence, the proposed 528 square foot accessory buiIding would provide added storage to the property that currently does not exist, which stmcture would be an amenity and benefit to Mr. Norman and any subsequent home owner. 5.3 Sectionl004.01A6 reads: "Maximum Total Surface Area: Including detached accessory buildings, principal structures, pavement surfaces (asphalt, concrete and/or brick, stone or other paver), the total impervious surface on a residential lot or parcel shall not exceed 30% of the total lot or parcel size."
