Beaudin: I'm not sure that I would try and regulate the structures with this language. For me there are paint tanks and other things that have kind of been strewed about and there's outdoor storage of materials. Commissioner Balch: Why don't we adopt something similar to that for garages? Beaudin: What I would say is that if you're concerned about multiple buildings, then maybe set a maximum of up to three or four, or one accessory structure and then beyond that, they would need to come to the City to make sure they look consistent, are sited appropriately, there's landscape screening perhaps, so they would get a permit. Commissioner O'Connor: So we could restate the code by saying anything over 120 square feet or any combination more than three structures need to be permitted. Commissioner Balch: 120 square feet is already there. Commissioner O'Connor: Yes, but you don't want to say three and they go out there and they do one that's 200. We don't want to eliminate these. I think to say, "Any accessory structure over 120 square feet or any combination of structures more than three or four must obtain a permit." Commissioner Balch: May I suggest an alternate? How about no more than two ancillary structures ?" Commissioner O'Connor: Yes, but any one over 120 square feet is in the code. Commissioner Allen: You know, I'm just feeling like we're nitpicking and I mean, to me, the propane tanks and the lighter fluid that's in the backyard is more concerning to me than these structures if they're by code. I would sort of say 44 conceptually covers it— "The applicant shall maintain the site in a clean and orderly manner." I would request the City work with the applicant to identify where there are gaps where it's not clean and orderly and get those resolved in the next 30 days or something. Chair Ritter: I agree. Commissioner Balch: I'm fine with that. Beaudin: Accessory structures I would say are different than 44. If the idea is to get things looking neat and tidy up there.... Commissioner Allen:....and safe in terms of the propane tanks. Commissioner Balch: Maybe I could do it differently —could we say no accessory structures in the buffer zone? Or are we okay with it? Chair Ritter: That's actually a good spot to put it. Commissioner O'Connor: That would actually say they can't have any because the west and north sides are buffer zones.
