FILE NO.: Z-9346 SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE COMMENT: (AUGUST 1, 2018) The applicants/owners Mr. and Mrs. King were present. Staff presented the item and noted little additional information was needed. In response to a question, the applicants stated the older mobile home located on the NE corner of the property, adjacent to Company Street, was not occupied and had been used for storage for many years. Public Works Comments were discussed. Staff explained the right-of-way dedication requirement. Other Agency Comments were noted. In response to a question about sewer service, the applicants were advised to contact Little Rock Water Reclamation Authority. The committee determined there were no other issues and forwarded the item to the full Commission. STAFF ANALYSIS: The applicant's property consists of two, R-3 zoned lots. The property is located outside of the city limits, within the City's zoning jurisdiction, established subsequent to the 1997 tornado and coordinated with the extension of city service to College Station. The property contains a one-story, brick and frame single family residence and an old mobile home which has been used for storage for a number of years. A single -wide mobile home was located on the south side of the property, straddling the lot lines. That mobile home was removed from the site a few years ago. The applicants purchased a home and had it moved from its previous location to this site in 2016. The home has been placed on the property in the area previously occupied by the older mobile home. The applicants intend to make the home available to their son. Placement of the second dwelling on this property requires a conditional use permit for an accessory dwelling. The applicants were notified of the violation by Code Enforcement staff and they subsequently filed this CUP application. Staff is supportive of the request to allow the accessory dwelling. It is located on the site in the area where a dwelling (mobile home) was previously located. The structure has good setbacks from all property lines. The use does not appear to be incompatible with existing development in the area. The older mobile home on the Company Street frontage which has been used -for storage cannot be converted back into a dwelling. To do so would then result in three dwellings on 3 August 23, 2018 ITEM NO.: 2 Cant. FILE NO.: Z-9346 the property which this CUP cannot allow. The plat/bill of assurance for Motley Heights Addition does not address use issues. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the requested CUP to allow an accessory dwelling subject to compliance with the following conditions: 1. Compliance with the Comments and Conditions outlined in Sections 5 and 6 of the Agenda Staff report. 2. One of the two dwellings must be occupied by the property owner as required by Chapter 36, Section 36-252 (a) (3). 3. The single -wide mobile home/manufactured home located off of Company Street which has been used for storage may not be reoccupied as a dwelling. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: (AUGUST 23, 2018) The applicants were present. There were no objectors present. Staff presented the item and a recommendation of approval as outlined in the "staff recommendation" above. There was no further discussion. The item was placed on the consent agenda and approved as recommended by staff by a vote of 9 ayes, 0 noes and 2 absent. 4
