UBDIVISION COMMITTEE COMMENT: (OCTOBER 24, 2018)
Ivan Martinez was present, representing the application. Staff presented the
application, noting that some additional information was needed. In response to
questions from staff, Mr. Martinez noted that the second dwelling on the property

utilities would be requested for each dwelling. The Public Works requirements

STAFF ANALYSIS:
The applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to allow for an
accessory dwelling (second dwelling) to be located on the R-7A zoned property
at 8505 Calleghan Road. The property is comprised of four (4) acres and is
located on the east side of Calleghan Road, north of W. Baseline Road. An
existing single family residence (manufactured home) is located at the southeast
corner of the property, with an access drive from Calleghan Road at the
southwest corner. A metal storage building/garage and a carport are located
near the southwest corner of the property.
The proposed second dwelling will be a 28 foot by 70 foot double -wide
manufactured home. The proposed second dwelling will be one-story in height
and will be located within the north half of the property. The applicant proposes
to construct a new concrete driveway from Calleghan Road near the northwest
corner of the property to serve the proposed second dwelling. The existing
residence on the property is approximately 1,500 square feet in area. The
proposed second dwelling will be 1,960 square feet. Therefore, the existing
residence will be considered the accessory dwelling.
Placement of the second dwelling must conform with the following siting criteria
as found in Section 36-262(d) (2) of the City's Zoning Ordinances:
a. A pitched roof of three (3) in twelve (12) or fourteen (14) degrees or greater-
b. Removal of all transport features.

ITEM NO.: 8 (Cont.
The applicant responded to issues raised at Subdivision Committee. At the
Subdivision Committee meeting the applicant noted that the second dwelling
proposed for the site would be for a family member of the property owner, and
that the dwelling would not be rented. The applicant also noted that separate
utilities would be requested for the second dwelling. Staff knows of no
outstanding issues associated with this application. The proposed second
dwelling will confirm with minimum building setback requirements from all
property lines.
Staff believes the proposed second, accessory dwelling is an appropriate use for
the site. The site is comprised of four (4) acres of property and will contain two
(2) single family residences. There are several other manufactured homes in this
general area on large lots. Therefore, the placement of a second manufactured
home on this four (4) acre site will not be out of character with the neighborhood.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the requested CUP, subject to compliance with the
following conditions:
1. Compliance with the comments and conditions outlined in Sections 5, 6 and 7
of the agenda staff report.
2. Placement of the second manufactured home must conform with the siting
criteria as found in Section 36-262 (d) (2) of the City's Zoning Ordinance.
