Planning & Zoning Commission/ Local Planning Agency Minutes August 9, 2023 Page 6 garage and a 1,076 sq. ft. Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) on the residential property located at 141 Sunnytown Road. The subject property has a zoning designation of R-9 (Low Density Single - Family) and a Future Land Use Map (FLUM) designation of Low Density Residential (LDR). It is larger than most residential lots, at about .6 acres. The applicant is requesting this conditional use to allow for the construction of an ADU and detached garage as a living space for her parents. The conditional use is required as both are over 500 sq. ft. As noted previously, the ADU is just over 1,000 sq. ft. and is planned to be a 2 -bed, 2 -bath dwelling unit. The second building is a 600 sq. ft. detached metal garage. The garage is 20 x 30 and will provide parking spaces and storage for the ADU. Planning has limited the ADU's kitchen to allow for a complete dwelling unit while ensuring that it is ancillary to the existing home. All surrounding properties to the north, south, and west are single-family residential homes. To the east, the subject property abuts a parking lot on a commercial property. The proposed use is compatible with the surrounding land uses and will not adversely impact land use activities in the immediate vicinity. The proposed structures meet all setback and buffer requirements, and the detached garage provides the required number of parking spaces generated by the ADU. Both structures will be in the rear yard of the property and will blend aesthetically with the principal structure. Renderings of the ADU provided by the applicant were shown to the Commission. No waste will be present on the property, and the applicant will be required to obtain a permit for the proposed work. Staff recommended that case number CU 23-09 be approved with staff's conditions, based upon the staff report and the testimony and evidence presented, that the request meets the applicable provisions of the Unified Land Development Regulations (ULDR) and is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan as per the written findings contained within the staff report. Conditions: The conditional use shall be limited to the location of 141 Sunnytown Road. 2. The accessory structure shall not be utilized for any commercial activity or home occupation. 3. The ADU shall not be utilized for any commercial activity. 4. The accessory structure shall be utilized solely for storage and shall not be converted to a habitable structure. 5. Any additions that increase the height or square footage of the accessory structure or ADU will require conditional use approval. 6. A building permit must be issued within 180 days of approval. All inspections must be approved by the expiration date of the building permit. 7. The use shall remain in complete compliance with all City, County, and State requirements.
