ORDINANCE DESIGN STANDARDS:
1. Site Location
Ann Gipson - Conditional Use Permit
NW corner of West 30th Street and
Longcoy Street, approximately
one-half block off John Barrow
Road. (2029 Longcoy Street)
Ann Gipson
The applicant proposes the
placement of a single 24 foot by
60 foot multisectional manufactured
home on one of the three lots.
This home will replace an existing
smaller single family frame
structure.
The lot at issue is located in an almost inaccessible
platted lot arrangement, whereby the adjacent streets have
not been opened to traffic. There is a platted right-of-way
for Longcoy as well as West 30th Street. However, neither
provides vehicular access to this lot. The owner enters
this property across the alley from Barrow Road by way of a
gravel driveway.
2. Compatibility with Neighborhood
The surrounding neighborhood is primarily single family
scattered with many vacant lots and undeveloped areas.
There are some church and business uses along Barrow Road
nearby. Compatibility should not be a question.
3. On -Site Drives and _Parking
The proposal by this owner will be to utilize the existing
access point from the west off Barrow Road and provide a
parking space on the lot.
4. Screening and Buffers
This is not applicable because it is a residential single
family proposal.
5. City Engineer Comments
There are none to be reported.

6. Utility Comments
There are none to be reported. All utility services are
nearby and available.
7. Analysis
The staff's review of this proposal and a visit to this site
indicates that the proposed multisectional home will in no
way adversely affect this neighborhood. In fact, this
structure will probably be one of the better residential
buildings in the immediate vicinity. This area of John
Barrow Addition is occupied by small two bedroom frame
residences with many being constructed in the 1940's and
19501s. The site at issue is visibly separated from the
rest of the neighborhood by at least one-half block of
undergrowth and mature trees on all sides.
8. Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of the application as filed
subject to adherence to the ordinance site design standards:
a. A pitched roof of three (3) in twelve (12) or fourteen
(14) degrees or greater.
b. Removal of all transport elements.
C. Permanent foundation
d. Exterior wall finished so as to be compatible with the
neighborhood.
e. Orientation compatible with placement of adjacent
structures
f. Underpinning with permanent materials.
g. All homes shall be multisectional.
h. Off-street parking per single family dwelling standard
