Staff noted that the site plan needed to show parking for at least one (1) vehicle. Staff also noted that any porches, decks or accessory structures also needed to be shown on the site plan. The Public Works right-of-way requirement was briefly discussed. After the discussion, the Committee forwarded the application to the full Commission for resolution. STAFF ANALYS The applicant is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to allow placement of a multisectional manufactured home on this R-3 zoned lot. The property is currently vacant. The property is located in a sparsely developed area characterized primarily by vacant lots, undeveloped properties and a scattering of single family homes. 3M Company mining property is located to the south and to the west. The applicant proposes to place a 28 foot by 76 foot multisectional manufactured home within the north half of the property. The proposed home will be located 38.42 feet from the front (north) property line, over 80 feet from the rear (south) property line, five (5) feet from the east side property line and 17 feet from west side property line. Small porches with steps will be located on the east and west sides of the residence. A small storage building will be located near the southeast corner of the lot. A gravel driveway from 3M Road and a gravel parking pad will be located on the north side of the residence. 3 May 9, 2019 ITEM NO.: 4 (Cont. FILE NO.: Z-9413 One (1) variance is needed with the proposed placement of the manufactured home. Section 36-255(d) (2) of the City's Zoning Ordinance requires minimum side yard setbacks of five (5) feet. The small porch/stoop with steps on the east side of the residence encroaches into the side setback area. Placement of the home must comply with the following siting criteria from Section 36-255 (d) (5) of the Code. 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. The applicant responded to issues raised at Subdivision Committee by providing a revised site plan to staff. The revised site plan shows the required right-of-way dedication, proposed porches with steps, gravel drive and parking, and storage building. To staff's knowledge, there are no outstanding issues associated with this application. Staff believes the proposed multisectional manufactured is an appropriate use for this property. It represents a good in -fill lot development in this area of vacant lots with a scattering of single family residences. The proposed multisectional manufactured home will not be out of character with the general area, as several other single -wide and double -wide manufactured homes exist in the College Station area. Staff believes the proposed manufactured home will have no adverse impact on the surrounding properties or the general area. STAFF RECOMMENDATIO Staff recommends approval of the requested CUP and side setback variance, 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. Compliance with the siting criteria as found in Section 36-255 (d) (5) of the Code. 4 May 9, 2019 ITEM NO.: 4 (Cont. FILE NO.: Z-9413 3. The porch and steps on the east side of the residence must remain uncovered and unenclosed. 4.
