The existing ordinance limits mural signs to only be permitted in the B3, Central Business District and the CPD, Comprehensive Planned Development District. Currently murals are limited to 10% of the wall area to which they are placed, unless they are for community beautification or celebration purposes, which would require approval by the Planning & Zoning Commission. The amended ordinance proposes the following changes: 1. Allow art murals on exterior building walls or permanent wall structures in all non-residential zoning districts and legal non-residential uses in residential zoning districts; and 2. Paint applied to masonry walls should be durable and porous thereby permitting the wall to breathe and prevent trapping of moisture; and 3. Proposed Murals will be reviewed by the City Council for approval; and 4. Maintenance of the mural would be the responsibility of the property owner. 5. A no-fee permit would be issued The Commission members considered the following items: • The Development Review Committee reviewed the ordinance amendment at their July 6, 2022 meeting and recommended approval.

SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The Development Review Committee members reviewed the variance request during their August 3, 2022 meeting and recommend approval. BACKGROUND: Attached for the Commission’s review is a variance request of a side yard setback. The original permit issued for the construction of the residence in 1950 indicates an approximate side yard setback of 17 feet and the property owner measured and confirmed it. The applicant is proposing to construct a carport on the south side of the house over the driveway. The existing garage was built in 1961 and is approximately 16 ft x 22 ft. There is also a shed that looks to be about 10 ft x 12 ft. The property is located in the R1B, Single Family zoning district that requires a 5 foot side yard setback. Per section 152.019 a variance of a setback may be requested up to 30% of what is required. In this situation, the applicant is requesting a 1 1/2 foot variance to provide for a 3 1/2 foot setback, which is 30% of what is required.

(1) The Planning and Zoning Commission shall not vary the provisions of this chapter as authorized in this section unless it shall have made affirmative findings based upon the evidence presented to it in each of the following specific cases: (a) That the property in question cannot yield a reasonable return if permitted to be used only under the conditions allowed by the regulations governing the district in which it is located. Applicants must submit evidence identifying the price paid for the property. Paying more for the property than it is worth, purchasing it at a price which anticipates and obtains variances, or showing that the property would be worth more if a variance is granted is not evidence of lack of a reasonable return; (b) That the situation of the owner is due to unique physical circumstances of the property; and (c) That the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. (2) For the purpose of supplementing the above standards, the Planning and Zoning Commission, in making this determination whenever there are practical difficulties or particular hardships, shall also take into consideration the extent to which the following facts, favorable to the applicant, have been established by the evidence: (a) That the particular physical surroundings, shape or topographical conditions of the specific property involved would bring a particular hardship upon the owner as distinguished from a mere inconvenience if the strict letter of the regulation were to be carried out; (b) That the conditions upon which the petition for variance is based would not be applicable generally to other property within the same zoning classification; (c) That the purpose of the variance is not based exclusively upon a desire to make more money out of the property; (d) That the alleged difficulty or hardship has not been created by any person presently having an interest in the property; (e) That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other property or improvements in the neighborhood in which the property is located; and (f) That the proposed variance will not impair an adequate supply of light and air to adjacent property, substantially increase the danger of fire, otherwise endanger the public safety, or substantially diminish or impair property values within the neighborhood. (3) The Planning and Zoning Commission may require conditions and restrictions upon the premises benefited by a variance as may be necessary to comply with the standards set forth in this division (C) to reduce or minimize the injurious effect of the variance upon other property in the neighborhood, and to implement the general purpose and intent of this chapter. cc: File Copy Conger St OakStSElmStEKnoxSt Conger St Conger St 66 66 66 66.28 181.2766 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 68 66 66 66 66 66 74125.266 66 66 66110.571.82165 66165.75 165.75 132.666.2833.1544.1918132.5 132.41 19819819819866 66 66 19819819866 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 66 181.28198198198198132.9 3 1 2 2 1 13 1 2 9 10 11 12 6 5 4 3 2 1 1 6 6 5 4 7 8 5 4 3 4 3 2 1 6 5 2 1 7 8 9 10 11 12 2 1 53 53 200198 132 99135 1356313266132 264 52.9 53 53 66 148.599 6612 200198 264.9 E KNOX ST OAK STS ELM STCONGER ST99144260031348 EKNOX ST99144260041364 EKNOX ST99144260051382 EKNOX ST9914426014 698 OAK ST 9914426018 654 OAK ST 9914426019 688 OAK ST 99144270011416 EKNOX ST99144270021432 EKNOX ST99144270031444 EKNOX ST99144270041458 EKNOX ST99144270051470 EKNOX ST99144270061490 EKNOX ST9914427007 665 OAK ST 9914427008 658 S ELM ST 9914427009 1415 CONGER ST 99144270101451CONGER ST99144270111463 CONGER ST99144270121473 CONGER ST99144270131485 CONGER ST9914427014684 S ELM ST9914428003 1518 E KNOX ST 9914428004 1580 E KNOX ST 99144290019914429011 1386 CONGER ST 9914430001729 OAK ST9914430004 1470 CONGER ST 9914430005 1488 CONGER ST 9914430011 1428 CONGER ST 99144310011500 CONGER ST99144310021524 CONGER ST9914431008 734 S FARNHAM ST 9914431011 1501 WEBSTER ST ÀR-3A ÀI ÀR-3A ÀB-2 ÀR-1B ÀR-1B Sources: Esri, HERE, Garmin, FAO, NOAA, USGS, © OpenStreetMap contributors, and the GIS User Community July 26, 2022 / 658 S Elm St Zoning Zoning Districts Agriculture (AG) Neighborhood Commercial (B-1) Commercial (B-2) Central Business (B-3) Comprehensive Planned Development (CPD) Estate Residential (ER) Institutional (I) Light Indiustrial (M-1) Heavy Industrial (M-2) Office (O) Single Family (R-1A) Single Family (R-1B) Single Family (R-1C) Two Family (R-2) Multi-Family (R-3A) Multi-Family (R-3B) 75 0 75 150 22537.5 Feet 658 S Elm St Community Development Department Operating Under Council-Manager Government Since 1957 Variance of side yard setback VARIANCE APPLICATION PETITIONillEVELOPMENT NAME (if applicable): GAL£SBuR(;.
