ITEM NO.: 6
FILE NO.: Z-8899
NAME: Huff Manufactured Home Accessory Dwelling
Conditional Use Permit
LOCATION: 12605 Matthew Drive
OWNER/APPLICANT: Melvin and Patricia Huff
PROPOSAL: A conditional use permit is requested to allow for
placement of a single -wide manufactured home on
this R-2 zoned, 2.89 acre tract to serve as an
accessory dwelling.
SITE LOCATION:
The property is located east of Vimy Ridge Road, between Matthew Drive
and Huff Lane.
2. COMPATIBILITY WITH NEIGHBORHOOD:
The area is rural in nature and currently sparsely developed. Single family
homes are located along Vimy Ridge. A new residential subdivision is in
the early stages of development on the west side of Vimy Ridge. A very
large area of Industrial zoned Entergy property is adjacent to the east.
The proposed accessory dwelling is to be located near the middle of the
applicants' property, back off of Vimy Ridge. It is to be placed in generally
the same location where an older mobile home was once located.
The proposed use of a single -wide manufactured home as an accessory
dwelling on this property does not appear to be incompatible with the
neighborhood.
Notice of the public hearing was sent to all owners of properties located
within 200 feet of the site and the SWLRUP, Quail Run and Alexander
Road Neighborhood Associations.
3. ON SITE DRIVES AND PARKING:
Access to the site is via a driveway off of Matthew Drive which is a private
street off of Vimy Ridge Road. The applicants plan on using the existing
driveway and parking area for both the existing house and the proposed
accessory dwelling. There is more than sufficient parking area to meet the
ordinance requirement of one parking space for the existing house and
one space for the accessory dwelling.

SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE COMMENT: (NOVEMBER 21, 2013)
Troy Laha was present representing the applicants. Staff presented the item and
noted there was little additional information needed. The applicants were asked
to indicate any new driveway or parking area and if porches and decks would be
added to the structure.

site plan indicated the required right-of-way dedication for Vimy Ridge Road.
The Committee determined there were no outstanding issues and forwarded the
item to the full Commission.
STAFF ANALYSIS:
The R-2 zoned, 2.89 acre property located at 12605 Matthew Drive is currently
occupied by a one story single family residence. An older single wide mobile
home that had been on the property was removed several years ago. A
conditional use permit is requested to allow for the placement of a 2013 model,
16' x 80', single -wide manufactured home on the property to serve as an
accessory dwelling. The accessory dwelling will be occupied by the daughter of
the parents who live in the existing home. The proposed new manufactured
home will be placed in the general location previously occupied by the now -
removed mobile home.
The accessory dwelling will be located near the middle of the 2.89 acre tract,
behind the homes that front onto Vimy Ridge Road. The home is not visible from
the public street. Front and rear porch and deck will be added.
To staff's knowledge, there are no outstanding issues. There is no Bill of
Assurance for this acreage tract.
