Commissioner Dudziak questioned Mr. Kramer regarding if there is a
need for over 2,000 square feet in the servant's quarters, or where the
mother will live, as opposed to coming under the guidelines of 1,700
square feet? Mr. Kramer replied the mother is very ill, at times,
therefore, there will be other people in the house with her attending her
needs. He stated the Hudson's will have family that will come and stay
with them at times that will require the space.
Commissioner Dudziak questioned Mr. Kramer regarding if the rear of
the structure would be screened from John McCain? Mr. Kramer replied
they will be landscaping that area. He stated there is a subdivision wall
that will be at the rear of this structure as well.
Commissioner Clardy questioned, for clarity, Mr. Kramer regarding the
accessory structure will be about 14% of the main residence? Mr.
Kramer replied correct.
There being no one wishing to speak, the public hearing was closed at
7:21 p.m.
Commissioner Phelps stated having concerns regarding have multiple
units on one property. He stated this does not really lend itself to the
typical concerns.
Commissioner Dudziak stated having concerns with having a possible
rental property for the future. He stated if this is approved, the property
could be used for rental property.
Commissioner Clardy stated with no garage being attached to this
structure, that might keep this unit from being a rental unit.
Commissioner Dudziak questioned staff regarding in the draft ordinance,
section g, does that statement cover not allowing rental use of the
property? Justin Bass replied no. Commissioner Dudziak questioned
staff regarding if the ordinance can state that the property may not be
used as a rental unit, however, how would it be enforced? Ron Ruthven
replied the difficulty would be in enforcing it. He stated with only one
meter on the property that can safe guard the use of the guest house as
use as a future rental unit.
Commissioner Byerly questioned staff if that would include submetering
at some point? Ron Ruthven stated the city would not issue a seperate
meter. Commissioner Byerly stated they can come in and put in their
own meter. Ron Ruthven stated the electric company contacts the
Building Department when issuing a seperate meter. He stated the city
would not issue a seperate meter.

Commissioner Byerly concurred with Commissioner Dudziak and stated
it concerns him most because it is contained in a subdivision. He stated
it would be better if it were its own subdivision. He stated the current
homeowners have no intention to rent the property, however, the future
homeowners may have a different idea about the use of that 2,300
square foot accessory structure.
Commissioner Rotthaus stated the property would have to be subdivided
if they are to use this as a seperate dwelling unit.
Commissioner Byerly stated once the unit is there, depending on the
PUD, if they meet those requirements, they can come in and plat
however they want to; then you are stuck with how it gets divided.
Commissioner Rotthaus stated notification was sent out to the residents
and no one has come forward to oppose the request.
Commissioner Phelps stated it is difficult to see the dimensions if there is
a future split in the lot, if they would not meet the minimum requirements
of the PUD ordinance in place.
Justin Bass stated the PUD ordinance requires all lots to be a minimum
of 30,000 square feet. He stated it would be difficult to split the lot with
the structure on it and meet those requirements. He stated the PUD
would have to be amended as well.
Commissioner Clardy questioned staff regarding if there is a minimum
size to the residences in this neighborhood? He stated there may be
enough attic space to add another floor. Justin Bass replied not
knowing, Mr. Kramer may know. Becky Kramer, representative with
Chuck Kramer, came forward and stated no, another floor could not be
added because of the slope of the roof line and the attic space.
Commissioner Phelps moved to approve case Z-08-024. Commissioner
Redfearn seconded.
The motion carried by the following vote:
Aye: 4 -Redfearn, Clardy, Phelps, Rotthaus
