Motion CARRIED .
Mr. Voboril presented slides to illustrate the possible configurations and
sizes of ADUs . The Commissioners discussed various options for
allowable maximum square footage . It was the consensus of the
Commission that 650 square feet would be a reasonable maximum as it
would allow for only one bedroom or two small bedrooms , limiting the
number of occupants. Ms. Townley requested clarification on how the
square footage is determined and Mr. Voboril stated that only the living
area would be counted if the unit were on the second story of a garage .
The Commission previously established a maximum height of 26 feet.
Discussion of placement of the ADU concluded with the majority of the
Commissioners agreeing that the ADU should be in the rear 35% of the
lot as a standard but agreed there will be exceptions that could be
addressed individually . Ten feet of separation between structures would
be required and the setbacks for the zone district would apply .
Owner occupancy would be established by a written covenant recorded
on the property at the County. Enforcement would typically be by
complaint only .
