SITE LOCATION: The site is located outside of the city limits, within the City's zoning jurisdiction. The property is located on the north side of Colonel Glenn at Pritchard Mill Road. 2. COMPATIBILITY WITH NEIGHBORHOOD: The area around the site is rural in nature. The predominate land use is large areas of undeveloped, wooded acreage. Other uses include a variety of residential homes, primarily on larger lots and acreage. Housing types vary greatly; from older single wide mobile homes to multisectional manufactured homes and site built homes of varying types and sizes. Non-residential uses in the immediate area include an auto repair business, a convenience store with gas pumps and a school bus storage yard. The proposed new multisectional manufactured home does not appear to be incompatible with uses in the area. Notice of the public hearing was sent to all owners of properties located within 200 feet of the site and the SWLR United for Progress Neighborhood Association. 3. ON SITE DRIVES AND PARKING: The single family residence requires one on -site parking space. The site has an existing driveway and parking to accommodate several vehicles. No changes are proposed. 4.

STAFF ANALYSIS: The R-2 zoned property located at 16724 Colonel Glenn Road is located outside of the city limits, within the City's Zoning jurisdiction. The 0.62 acre tract previously contained an older, site built home and an older single -wide mobile home. The site built home has been removed and a new, multisectional manufactured home located on the site. The older single -wide mobile home will be removed. The applicant's mother previously occupied the site built home. Due to physical concerns, it was determined that the older home should be removed and the new manufactured home placed on the site to accommodate her and caregivers/family. The applicants apparently received incorrect information and began the process of placement of the multisectional manufactured home on the site without having received appropriate approval from the City. Once advised of this discrepancy, the applicants filed this CUP application. The applicant's mother passed away while at a rehabilitation facility. Staff is supportive of the request to allow the home, as located on the site. Once the single wide is removed, the new multisectional home will be the only residence on the 0.62 acre tract. Placement of the home appears to meet the siting criteria established in Section 36-254(d)(5) of the code. The home is not out of character with other homes and development in the area. Porches and decks have been added to the home and building setbacks exceed the ordinance requirements. There is no bill of assurance for this acreage tract. To staffs knowledge there are no outstanding issues. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the requested CUP subject to compliance with the siting criteria of Chapter 36, Section 36-254(d)(5) as follows: 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. 3 June 27, 2013 ITEM NO.: 8 (Cont.)
