4 This second dwelling is occupied by an immediate family member of the occupant of the principal structure. onsistent with past actions on similar requests, conditions are typically imposed to ensure that the single-family character of the area is maintained. These conditions limit occupancy of the second dwelling unit such that the occupants of both dwelling units are related to or are guests or domestic employees for the occupant of the principal dwelling unit. onditions also provide notice of such limitation to future owners of the property. (onditions 1 and 2) Detached accessory structures over twelve (12) feet in height in an gricultural () District must observe a front yard setback of the lesser of half the average depth of the lot or eighty (80) feet. Given the average depth of the property is 180 feet the structure would have to be set back eighty (80) feet from the front property line. s shown on the Exhibit the accessory structure was constructed with a front setback of approximately sixty (60) feet; therefore, a twenty (20) foot exception to the required eighty (80) foot front setback for a detached accessory structure is requested. (ondition 3) ONLUSION The Planning ommission and Board of Supervisors have typically acted favorably on similar requests where occupancy of the second dwelling unit has been limited to guests, domestic servants or family members of the occupants of the principal dwelling. The recommended conditions ensure that the single-family residential character of the area is maintained and that the accessory structure does not encroach any further into the required front yard setback. Given these considerations, approval of this proposal is recommended. SE HISTORY Planning ommission Meeting (7/16/13): The applicant accepted the recommendation. There was no opposition present. On motion of Dr. Brown, seconded by Dr. Wallin, the ommission recommended approval subject to the conditions on page 2. YES: Messrs. Brown, Wallin, Gulley, Patton and Waller.
