Main Street APPLICANT: Barbara Hetland DESCRIPTION: A request for a Conditional Use Permit for a two-unit Travelers Accommodation including the owners unit at 985 and 989 E. Main Street. The business-owner resides on-site in the primary dwelling, and the 480 square foot rear unit will be the accommodation unit. The rear unit was approved through a Site Review for a second.unit in 2000. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: High-Density Multi-Family; ZONING: R-3; ASSESSOR'S MAP #: 39 lE 09AD; TAX LOT #: 3500 I SUBMITTAL DATE: May 10, 2012 DEEMED COMPLETE DATE: June 15, 2012 STAFF APPROVAL DATE: July 11, 2012 APPEAL DEADLINE: July 23, 2012 FINAL DECISION DATE: July 24, 2012 APPROVAL EXPIRATION DATE: July 24, 2013 DECISION The subject property is located on the north side of East Street, between Eighth and Emerick Streets. The parcel and surrounding uses are zoned R-3,High-Density Multi-Family; the subject property is the last parcel located within the Railroad Addition Historic District. The parcel is approximately 7,000 square feet in size,trapezoidal in shape, and has a slight four percent slope to the north. The front house at 985 East Main Street is the Jacobs Rental House it was constructed in approximately 1910 and is listed as a Historic Contributing resource in the Historic Railroad District. In 2001, the property received Site Review approval to construct a two vehicle garage with a 480 square foot residence above. The unit above the garage will be utilized as the vacation rental and the property owner will reside in the front house. When the unit was approved and constructed a surface parking space was installed and the site complies with current Site Review standards. Additional approval criteria for a Traveler's Accommodation is that the structure be at least 20 years old, be within 200 feet of an arterial or collector, have a parking space per unit,plus two for the owners unit, and have an average area of 400 square feet per unit. The primary residence is more than twenty years old. The maximum number of units allowed is calculated by dividing the total square footage of the lot by 1,800. The property is 8,037 square feet, so a maximum number,units including the owner's unit is 4 which the proposal complies with. The proposed unit is 480 square feet, and exceeds the average size required for a Traveler's Accommodation unit. The Traveler's Accommodation use requires that one parking space be provided for the unit in addition to two parking spaces for the owner; for a total of three parking spaces. The parking spaces were installed when the unit was constructed. No exterior modifications to either building are proposed. Adequate 'capacity for water, sanitary sewer, storm drain and electric facilities are already in place for the unit. East Street is considered a Major Collector and is fully improved with sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and a park rows with street trees. When PA-2012-00634 985 E.Main St./adg Page 1 the structure was constructed a fire suppression system was installed. Landscaping, irrigation and street trees are in place and all site improvements are in good condition. In summary,the operation of a Traveler's Accommodation in the existing residential unit at the rear of the property will not have an adverse impact on the neighborhood, the number of vehicle trips per day will be at or below that caused by a dwelling unit. Additionally, with'no site modifications proposed the change in use will have little effect on the existing development pattern in the high-density, multi- family residential zone. Staff finds that the request for a two-unit Traveler's Accommodation meets the approval criteria of the Ashland Municipal Code. Approval Criteria for a Conditional Use Permit(18.104.050): w 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; 1. Similarity in scale, bulk, and coverage. 2. Generation of traffic and effects on surrounding streets. Increases in pedestrian, bicycle, and mass transit use are considered beneficial regardless of capacity of facilities: 3. Architectural compatibility with the impact area. 4. Air quality, including the generation of dust, odors, or other environmental pollutants. 5. Generation of noise, light, and glare. 6.

SignaG e of Employee i i i i I I I i I i i Wcomm-devlplanningTorms&Handouts\Affidavit of Mailing—Planning Action Notice.doc 1. Narrative: I live at 985 E. Main Street and am the owner of that property and have been the owner since 2003. In 2001 a garage was built and a 480 sq. ft. apartment above the garage. Plans to that apartment are attached as well as proposed landscaping, the location of the three parking spaces and elevations. The apartment was permitted and final inspections were approved by the city. The apartment has the address of 989 E. Main Street and has its own power meter but does not have a separate meter for water or gas. I would like to make that apartment a Travelers' Accommodation. The neighborhood that I live in consists of some apartment buildings, duplexes and single family dwellings. Some of the buildings are very old, as i is my house, and others are from different eras. A brand new house is across the street from me on C Street. Some of the homes have been updated, others not. My direct neighbors are tenants but the houses across Main Street and C Street are owner occupied. I would consider this a mixed neighborhood in terms of housing. I don't think that the diversity of my neighborhood would be harmed by having a traveler's accommodation. Tenants have lived in the apartment off and on since I have been here. Now it would be tourists, guests, that would like to stay in Ashland perhaps a few days, or, hopefully, longer. I think that they would enjoy the neighborhood and I think the neighbors would be happy with newcomers that are enjoying the ambience of Ashland. It is a friendly and safe neighborhood and within easy walking to downtown and the plays. I have walked to downtown at all times of day and night and it has always been a great experience. There are no other travelers accommodations in this neighborhood, as far as I know. 985 E. Main Street was built in 1910 (or 1905) and is zoned R-3. The total square feet in the main house is 1450 sq. ft. It is single level. 985 E. Main Street is owner occupied and there are no other people in my household. i 989 E. Main Street—the apartment above the garage —has 480 sq. ft. and is upstairs above the two car garage. There are 3 side by side off-street parking spaces at 985/989 E. Main Street. i I'm not sure if I will put up a sign in the front yard. None is contemplated at j this time. MAY 10 2012 The total square footage of my lot is 8276, divided by 1800 would be 4.6. There is only one apartment that could be used as a travelers accommodation. It is a studio apartment with 480 sq.ft., the living and bedroom are all one room. The total lot coverage is 56%. There is a two car garage but 3 off street parking spaces in front of the garage. There are no recreation areas per se, but there is a nice patio at the side of the house which will be used by the travelers accommodation. All of the property is landscaped, pictures are attached. i i i i i i i I i MAY 10 2012 Chapter 18.104.040 for Conditional Use Permit—Further Explanation A. I believe that the use would be in conformance with all the standards within the zoning district in that the apartment to be converted to a travelers'accommodation was built in 2001—2002 and was permitted with the city and followed all of the parameters for an additional dwelling unit that the City required. As a travelers'accommodation there will be no more density than when the apartment was rented to parties on a month to month tenancy. As a matter of fact, it may be less dense since the travelers accommodation may not always be booked and there will be times of vacancy. B. The apartment to be converted to a travelers'accommodation is separately metered for power and the water use will be substantially the same as when it was occupied by a month to month tenant. The water,sewer and paved access remain the same. Actually,when the apartment was built and permitted,C Street was a gravel road and now it is a paved road. When C Street was gravel there was no real drainage for the"alley". Since the street has been paved,the paving project included state of the art drainage. My house and the apartment in question front both on East Main Street and C Street. The actual ingress and egress by car is on C Street. I expect that the guests at the travelers' _ accommodation will do a lot of walking to and from the center of town since the apartment is located only 5%blocks from the downtown area. Bicycles will also be available to guests and the parking for the bicycles is in the garage which is located on C Street. C. I believe that guests that stay in the travelers'accommodation will use the area pretty much in the same way that the month to month tenants used the area. There is a coffee shop on the corner of Stn and East Main Street which provides guests a place to walk to(1/2 block away). There is a bicycle lane on East Main Street for access to the downtown area via bike,and there is a sidewalk all the way into the downtown area,as well as A Street and the amenities that can be found there. The travelers' accommodation has its own parking space,or two spaces if needed,and all of Ashland is available via car. For those guests who are interested in the University,that is also within easy reach by foot,bicycle or car. The apartment that will be converted to a travelers'accommodation already exists and is compatible with the area. The style of architecture fits in with the surrounding houses and it looks as though it was constructed when the main house was constructed. I The use of the apartment as a travelers'accommodation would not change the air quality,dust, odors or other environmental pollutants in the area. Actually,there may be less odors and pollutants because the guests are more likely to go out to eat than a month to month tenant would. Guests would also actually help the economy of Ashland in that they will eat in restaurants,shop in Ashland,go to plays,etc.and avail themselves of all the wonderful things that Ashland has to offer. I I'm not sure if guests will create more noise than month to month tenants. I hope to find out and my hope is that they will not be noisier. Since I live in the house just a few yards away from them I doubt that they will be terribly noisy. i I don't think there would be any change with regard to development of adjacent properties in my neighborhood. There is a vacant lot on C Street, but East Main Street is fully developed with a mix of apartment houses,duplexes,townhouses and single family dwellings. I I i I i In summary,the apartment that is to be converted to a Travelers'Accommodation has existed for 10 years,was fully permitted by the City of Ashland and was found to be consistent with the neighborhood. I be that changing the apartment from a place that was rented month to month,to a place that can be rented night to night to out of town guests will not adversely affect the neighborhood. I believe that things will stay unchanged. With regard to placing a sign in the yard, I don't plan on putting a sign up now but would like to reserve the right to put one up in the future should the need arise. In the event that I will put a sign on the premises it will on exceed an overall height of five feet and an area of fifteen feet, it will be set back at least 10 feet from the property lines. A sign would be made of wood and not be internally lighted. Thank you for your consideration of my application.
