FINDINGS & ORDERS
PLANNING ACTION: 2012-00329
SUBJECT PROPERTY: 399 North Laurel St.
APPLICANT: Garth Sahli
DESCRIPTION: A request for a Conditional Use Permit for a two-story Accessory
Residential Unit to be located in the front yard of the property at 3 99 N. Laurel Street. The primary
dwelling on the lot is 828 square feet, and the proposed accessory unit will be 414square feet of
living space with 378 square feet of storage on the ground level.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Single-family Residential; ZONING: R-1-5;
ASSESSOR'S MAP: 39 lE 04CB; TAX LOT: 1800
SUBMITTAL DATE: March 19, 2012
DEEMED COMPLETE DATE: March 26, 2012
STAFF APPROVAL DATE: April 12, 2012
FINAL DECISION DATE: April 25, 0212
APPROVAL EXPIRATION DATE: April 25, 0213
DECISION
The subject parcel is located at the southwest corner of the North Laurel and Orange Avenue. The
property and surrounding uses are zoned R-1-5, Single Family Residential,and is not located within
a historic district. The parcel is approximately 7,500 square feet in size,rectangular, and relatively
flat. The property contains an 828 square foot single-family home constructed in 1948,a 480 square
foot garage adjacent to the western property boundary,and 276 square feet of covered area between
the two structures. Both frontages are improved with curbs and gutters but without sidewalks. The
Laurel frontage has approximately 14 feet of right-of-way adjacent to the property.
The application is for a 414 square foot accessory unit located in the front yard,placed on top of 3 78
square feet of storage space.The primary dwelling on-site is 828 square feet,thus the 414 square foot
accessory structure will be fifty percent of the primary dwelling. Staff would like to note that this
application is not typical.for two reasons;first is that primary home is placed in the rear yard instead
of being closer to Laurel Street.This is not usually the case since the majority homes are constructed
towards the street providing larger rear yards where accessory units are usually placed. Secondly,the
unit is proposed to be constructed on top of two separate storage spaces; a 312 square foot space
beneath the unit, and a smaller 66 square foot space closer to Laurel Street. Second level accessory
units are usually built upon garages or living space,not newly constructed storage areas in the front,
yard. Staff felt that these two issues combined created an atypical situation that need to be addressed
in terms of architecturally compatibility within the established neighborhood.
The applicant's findings state that although there is not a distinct architectural flavor in the
neighborhood, the dominant style appears to be 1940s cottage and the proposed unit will blend in
well with the surroundings. Many photos were submitted showing second-story units in the
neighborhood. The unit portion of the structure will consist of a 3/12 pitch,architectural composite
PA#2012-00329
399 N.Laurel SUMP
Page 1
roofing with a small 6/12 pitched roof over the bedroom facing Laurel Street.The unit will be sided
with horizontal hardi plank siding and painted an earthy-green to match the primary home.The lower
portion of the structure will be sided with vertical natural wood board and bat siding.
The applicant has verified there is adequate capacity within the adjacent rights-of--way to serve both
the proposed unit and the primary dwelling. The applicant is also aware that an additional electric
meter is required and has proposed to upgrade both meters.The trash and recycling enclosure will be
located under the stairs accessing the unit, and the bike parking will be available in the smaller
storage space beneath the bedroom.The application does not include a landscape and irrigation plan
as the applicant has stated multiple new trees and landscaping has been installed within the past two
years anticipating this development. Once the ARU is completed, additional landscaping will be
installed and the irrigation will be upgraded.
The property currently has a one-car curb out on the north side of the property.However,the parcel is
bounded by two street frontages for a total of 175 linear feet.In accordance with Ashland Municipal
Code 18.92,a one-bedroom unit smaller than 500 square feet requires one additional parking space.
The applicant has requested an on-street parking credit for 22 feet of uninterrupted curb on Laurel
Street in front of the accessory unit.
The Tree Commission reviewed the application at their April 5t`,2012 meeting and recommended to
approve the application as submitted, and follow the specifications for construction within the tree
protection zone. Staff has added a condition to this effect.
Although the proposed accessory unit is an atypical configuration and location,the manner in which
the home was placed on the lot was not determined by the applicant, and as such is limited in the
placement of an accessory unit in order to preserve the most amount of yard space for both the
primary dwelling and the accessory unit. The proposed unit will front onto laurel Street while
preserving the views of the primary dwelling from the street. Therefore,the proposed the Accessory
Unit meets the minimum requirements of the Conditional Use chapter of the Ashland Municipal
Code,and is hereby approved.
The criteria for Site Review Approval are described in AMC Chapter 18.72.070, as follows:
A. That the use would be in conformance with all standards within the zoning district in
which the use is proposed to be located,.and in conformance with relevant
Comprehensive plan policies that are not implemented by any City, State, or Federal law
or program.
B. That adequate capacity of City facilities for water, sewer,paved access to and through
the development, electricity, urban storm drainage, and adequate transportation can and
will be provided to and through the subject property.
C. That the conditional use will have no greater adverse material effect on the livability of
the impact area when compared to the development of the subject lot with the target use
of the zone. When evaluating the effect of the proposed use on the impact area, the
following factors of livability of the impact area shall be considered in relation to the
target use of the zone:

3. Architectural compatibility with the impact area.
4. Air quality, including the generation of dust, odors, or other environmental
pollutants.
S. Generation of noise, light, and glare.
6: The development of adjacent properties as envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan.

for single-family dwellings of this Title.
The application with the attached conditions complies with all applicable City ordinances.
Planning Action 2012-00303 is approved with the following conditions. Further, if any one or
more of the following conditions are found to be invalid for any reason whatsoever,then
Planning Action 2012-00303 is denied. The following are the conditions and they are attached to

Chapter 18.104.050
This ARU conforms to all residential building standards and has no conflicting attributes in regards to
the standards set forth from chapter 18.104.050
1. similarity in scale,bulls, and coverage:Although the existing property layout is not normal, as
the main house is set to the back of the property line, there are multiple properties within the
neighborhood which contain other multi dwelling configurations. The nearest property with a
two dwelling unit set would be 386 N. Laurel St, which is directly across laurel st.
2. since the the additional unit will only be a 414 sq.ft. One bedroom additional parking and traffic
will be minimal
3. even though finding a consistent architectural flavor for the area is very difficult as the diversity
is large a 1940 cottage presence will blend well as it is the most common style present in the
neighborhood. The main roof will consist of a 3/12 pitch with architectural composite roofing.
The smaller roof line extending off the main roof will be a 6/12 pitch. The lower siding will be
a natural wood board and bat siding and the upper level will be paint grade 10 and 3/a inch hardi
siding with metal clips on the corners. The upstairs living area will be very consistent with
multiple units in the neighborhood with the closest similarity being 3 86 1/2 laurel st.
4. air quality shall minimally be affected as a high efficiency HVAC system will be utilized and
the yard will be landscaped in such a way to lesson dust and conserve water.
5.with the existing elm tree and shrubbery blocking most views of the ARU noise,li`g"Id r�
pollutants are minimal to non-existent. MAR 2 3 2012

Chapter 18 20.030.H
1. lot coverage: with the proposed ARU the total lot coverage will be 1998 sq.ft. Which works
out to be 26.81%. the unit will have a 20 foot setback from the street and a 6 foot set back
from nearest property.
2. The lot shall not exceed the maximum number of dwelling units (2)
3. GHFA: the main house is 828 sq.ft.And the proposed ARU is 414 sq.ft.

Chapter 18.72
Orie
_
The ARU will be orientated so that it faces Laurel St. and the set back from Laurel St. will be 20 feet.
Parking will be on street.
Streetscape
Multiple existing trees and shrubs already exist on the property and there is a raised bed area the length
of laurel St. which is already full of shrubs, trees and season flowers. There is also a drip system in
place that efficiently waters this the plant life in these areas..
Landscaping
Landscaping: multiple new trees have been planted in the last 2 years preparing for this development
and many decorative shrubs have also been strategically placed to enhance the projects blending in
with the community and to screen the street and adjacent properties. j
three sides of the proposed ARU have a variety of existing trees, shrubs and seasonal flowers and once
the ARU is built the perimeter will be complimented with more vegetation and the irrigation system
will be upgraded to bring about a clean balance.
i
Open Space
The area shaded by the large elm tree will be utilized for open space both to help preserve the health of
the Elm tree and create a comfortable social and recreational area. There will also be a large entrance
deck with great views creating a comfortable social area.
Natural climate control
a very large elm tree has been preserved next to the ARU and will function as a great shade enhancer j
for the structure.
Building Materials
The main roof will consist of a 3/12 pitch with architectural composite roofing. The smaller roof line
extending off the main roof will be a 6/12 pitch. The lower siding will be a natural wood board and bat
siding and the upper level will be paint grade 10 and 3/4 inch hardi siding with metal clips on the
corners. The upper level paint color will be a very earthy green matching that of the main dwelling.
adequate water meter sizing has been calculated to ensure the appropriate units are accessible.
Proper drainage is available to connect to the properties main sewer line.
i
Electrical and drainage upgrades have been consulted upon and are available for the development

Tree Protection Plan for 399 N. Laurel
The 38 inch DBH american elm at 399 N. Laurel needs a tree protection zone of 38 feet in radius. .
Because the proposed construction falls within the tree protection zone,you will need to take special
measures to insure the trees survival. Any work done within the tree protection zone must be
supervised by an arborist. The foundation excavation and the water line excavation must be dug by
hand to insure that no large roots(>4"in diameter)are cut without first evaluating(by an arborist)their
effect on the overall health of the tree. All roots encountered in the excavation process need to be cut
clean and backfilled with top soil as quickly as possible. The cut roots should be watered as soon as
possible after they are cut. If a large root is encountered within the foundation excavation area that
cannot be cut, it may be necessary to bridge over that root with a grade beam. If a large root is
encountered in the waterline excavation,the water line should be installed by tunneling under the root
(rather than cutting the root). I am enclosing the tree protection specs that should be followed along
with these specific recommendations. If you have any Questions regarding this report,please call me at
541-601-2069.
