BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: N/A
RECOMMENDATION: Place Ordinance on First Reading and Adoption
DISCUSSION:
At the July 16, 1985 meeting of the City Council, you directed that the City
Attorney's office prepare an emergency ordinance which would prohibit the
construction of "guest houses" upon its adoption.
The direction from the City Council was precipitated by an oral presentation
:om a property owner who lives adjacent to an established guest house. Said
oral testimony indicated that the guest house was being used as a second
residence. The Council became concerned that the situation was not unique and
that guest houses should be prohibited from being constructed until such time
as the Planning Department is able to conduct a study and report back to the
Council.
The proposed emergency ordinance, if adopted by four affirmative votes, will
prohibit the construction of guest houses after July 23, 1985. This ordinance
if adopted will create legal nonconforming uses of those guest houses already
in existence. Accordingly, the situation brought to the attention of the
Council on July 16, 1985 will not be affected by the adoption of this
ordinance.
