RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached ordinance which
establishes a fee of $25.00 for carport permit applications which are filed
under Section 17, Paragraph M of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
On December 11, 1990, City Council adopted Ordinance No. 10750 which added a
new Paragraph M to Section 17, "Legal Nonconforming Uses, Buildings and
Structures of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance. This paragraph establishes
criteria for granting legal nonconforming status to certain carports that were
added to the front of single-family residences before December 11, 1990.
Paragraph M provides that a residence owner who desires to seek legal
nonconforming status for a carport must file an application for a carport
permit accompanied by the "requisite fee." City staff is of the opinion that
a permit application fee of $25.00 is appropriate and should be established by
the City Council.
