4.1 Mr. Russell 2824 a conditional use permit to replace an non-conforming detached accessory structure currently located in the front yard, with a larger detached accessory structure in a similar location. 4.2 The Cattelan property has a Comprehensive Land Use designation of LR, Density Residential and an Official Zoning Map designation ofR-l, Single Family Residence District. 4.3 The existing non-conforming detached accessory structure is located in the front yard (21 feet from the front property line and is 24 feet by 21 feet or 504 sq. ft. 4.4 The Cattelan parcel is a legal, pre-existing but non-conforming land locked parcel served by a private access easement that provides the legal access and frontage to Lakeview Avenue (to the west of the house). Another lot and house sets between the Cattelan house and the Lakeview Avenue right-of-way. 4.5 In review of the City Code, variances are necessary from Section 1004.01 A 7 (Location- not in front yard), Section 1004.016 (Residential Dimensional Requirements - Front Yard Setback). 4.6 A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (consistent with Sections 1004.01A4 and 1013.01) is necessary if the 1,007 sq. ft. replacement accessory structure is to be allowed. 5.0 STAFF COMMENTS/FINDINGS: 5.1 Section 1004.01A7 (Location) does not allow detached accessory structures within a front yard. A front yard is deemed the area from the front wall ofthe principal structure to the front property line adjacent to a public right of way. 5.2 Section 1004.016 (Residential Dimensional Requirements - Front Yard Setback) requires Single Family Residential parcels to have a minimum front yard setback of 30 feet. A detached accessory structure located in the front yard must meet or exceed the minimum principal structure setback to be considered a conforming structure. 5.3 Section 1004.01A4 (Requirements for Increased Size) requires a detached accessory structure between 864 sq. ft. and 1,008 sq. ft. to receive a conditional use permit. The proposed Cattelan structure - because of the increased size - must also meet the 6 criteria stipulated in the City Code. 5.4 Mr. Cattelan seeks approval to replace the pre-existing 504 sq. ft. detached accessory building, located in the front yard with a 1,007 sq. ft. detached accessory structure in a similar location in the front yard. This proposal would place the new structure 8 feet from the north (side yard) property line and 21 feet from the west (front yard) property line. PF3638_RPCA_050405.doc- Page 20f6
