Staff stated accessory structures are not permitted in commercial districts;
however, the building official has stated it is to close to the existing structure and
it meets the requirements for an addition. Staff defined accessory structure for the
Commission. Indicating this building is not an accessory structure because it is
two feet away from the building, not five feet, as an accessory structure is
required. Commissioner Weesner stated she did not feel comfortable about this,
and the building has already been built. In addition, the Site Plan provided should
show the buildings connected to make it look like one building and not two.
Commissioner Bertrand stated he is concerned about the language in the
ordinance defining what is a structure and what is an accessory structure. He
feels the interpretation issue must be fixed.
