DECISION
The subject property is located on the north side of B Street, 50 feet east of First Street. The parcel and
surrounding uses are zoned R-2,Low-Density Multi-Family; and is located within the Railroad
Addition Historic District. The parcel is approximately 5,563 square feet in size,rectangular in shape,
and has a slight four percent slope to the north.
The property has had a valid Conditional Use Permit to be used as an office since 1979;the majority of
time as a dentist office.At the time of approval,on-site parking was not required.When the current office
use was established,the property owners removed all mechanical equipment and services for the dentist
use.B Street is considered a Collector and is fully improved with sidewalks,curbs,gutters,and a park rows
with street trees. .
This application is to convert the existing office into a 3-unit Travelers Accommodation in accordance with
Ashland Municipal Code 18.24.030.x.An implicit requirement of Travelers Accommodations is that the
business be "business-owner" occupied. In this case,the property owners will not live on site but have
identified a business-owner who will be wholly responsible for all aspects of the business. Traveler
Accommodations require a lease agreement to"specifically state that the property owner is not involved in
the day to day operation or financial management of the accommodations, and that the business owner is
wholly responsible for all operations associated with the accommodation,and has actual ownership of the
business." A lease agreement has not been submitted at the time of this report,therefore a condition has
been added requiring a copy of the lease agreement to the submitted to he Planning Division for review
within 10 days from the date of this approval.
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 each unit,plus two for the owners

unit, and have an average area of 400 square feet per unit. The home was constructed in 1900 and is
considered a historic contributing resource according to survey documents.The maximum number of units
allowed is calculated by dividing the total square footage of the lot by 1800.The property is 5,563 square
feet, so a maximum number units including the owner's unit is 3 [5,563 _ 1800 = 3.09]. Excluding the
owner's unit, proposed Unit A will be approximately 705 square feet, while proposed Unit B will be
approximately 709 square feet; both exceed the average size for a Traveler's Accommodation unit. The
Traveler's Accommodation uses requires that one parking space be provided for each unit in addition to
two parking spaces for the owner;equating to a total of four parking spaces.The applicant has proposed to
locate the required parking in the rear of the property off the alley,and pave the parking spaces with brick
at a 60 degree angle.The only concern that staff has with this parking design is that a five foot buffer on
the east side cannot be maintained since the parking will be at a 60 degree angle. The applicant has
requested that brick be utilized as parking paving because it can be easily removed if at some point the
current or future owners would like to modify the parking arrangement..As such, since the brck can be
easily removed, staff will require that the parking be lined up in a way that maintains a 5 foot landscaped
buffer on both sides of the parking spaces adjacent to property boundaries.
No exterior modifications to the building is proposed, however that applicants will be installing an
additional bathroom in the owners unit. Adequate capacity for water, sanitary sewer, storm drain and
electric facilities are already in place for the unit.
The Historic Commission at their February 8th,2012 discussed the proposal and had no concerns regarding
the application.Overall staff feels that by having the business-owner living on-site is closer to the intended
residential use of the property,and will bring vitality to the site more than the previous CUP use which was
vacant on evenings and weekends. Also staff feels that the location of this property will have an overall
benefit to the neighborhood by promoting customers to walk to their destination and leaving their vehicle at
the travelers accommodation. In summary,the request for a three-unit Traveler's Accommodation meets
minimal approval criteria of the Ashland Municipal Code.
Approval Criteria for a Conditional Use Permit(18.104.050):
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,electricify,urban
storm drainage, and adequate transportation can and will be provided to and through the subject properly.
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 qualify,including the generation of dust, odors, or other environmental pollutants.
5. Generation of noise, light, and glare.
6. The development of adjacent properties as envisioned in the Comprehensive Plan.
7. Other factors found to be relevant by the Hearing Authority for review of the proposed use.

237 B. St
Michael, as we discussed in our phone conversation this morning, our intent will be to use
the building at 237 B.St as a vacation rental in a manner that would lesson the impact, as well as
be conducive to the integrity and well being of the immediate neighborhood.
How this will come about:
1. When we received a CUP in 1979 for a dental office,no off-street parking was required. We
had six individuals working in the building and two patients actively being treated with the
likelihood of two more patients waiting in the waiting room; a possible total of ten cars parked at
any one time on B Street. Providing four parking spaces in the rear for the vacation rental will
free up parking for neighbor parking. Also, previously there was on-going traffic movement with
the coming and going of patients. This would not be the case for the vacation rental,thus
providing a quieter traffic condition on the street with less impact.
It is my opinion that the vacation rental clientele will use primarily foot or bicycle as their
mode of transportation because of the proximity of local restaurants, shopping, OSF, and the
COOP food store around the corner;thus having both less impact on the environment and adding
to the growth of our local economy.
In addition, if we were to continue renting to a commercial business,we would not be
required add rear parking and while we don't know the type of business that would rent the
building,there is a much greater likelihood of street and traffic impact than a vacation rental.
2. With the previous CUP the building was vacant on weekends and holidays as well as
evenings.. Because the owner of the business will be on site, as well as vacationers who are
wanting a positive experience,there will likely be more eyes of interest on the community. It is
also our intent to have `off season' semi-permanent renters from November through April. This
will give the building a lived-in feeling.
3. We will make sure that the wooden sign will conform to the standard maximum of 6 sq
e dot
feet. The present sign is not illuminated and if we decide at a later date toillum ate the sign,we
will make sure to light the sign only and will not infringe an any adjacent structures.
Parking area:
Our plan is to use drain tile to rout excess water from the parking area to the yard/garden
area. Our preference is to use gravel over the parking area to facilitate greater water percolation. In
my discussion with Michael he felt that the gravel would eventually pack down, and while I'm
sure that is true, it would still allow for natural drainage far better than a non pervious material
such as concrete or asphalt,which, in my opinion,would act like a solid sheet for run-off. I also
think that gravel would be more contiguous with the current composition of the alley.
Also, as was my argument against putting parking in the rear and concreting almost half
the yard in 1979,by doing so at this time,the character of the property would be decidedly
changed. Through these 30 plus years we have tried to maintain the historical nature and context
of the outside property. I feel today, as I did in 1979,placing concrete in the back half of the
backyard would permanently alter the intent of the historical concept. The use of gravel also offers
the possibility of restoration in the future if the building were to be re-converted to a residence.
Also, as shown in our plans using an approximately 60 degree angle of entry into the
parking area,we will have a five foot buffer from adjacent property, as well as easier ingress and
egress.
Regarding the partition wall of the two units,we will use maximum code for dry wall and
have a pass through door between the two units. Both units in an emergency would have two exit
doors and smoke detectors in each room.
We had considered putting a third bathroom in the small room off the apartment but the
estimated cost of our project will severely stretch our fmances at this time. We have discussed
this issue with Teresa and she had assured us that she is comfortable sharing a bathroom and looks
forward to interactions with the guests. This is a start-up business and we are not sure how busy
this section of the building will be. If the business is successful and it becomes a logistical
problem, we will be glad to revisit the third bathroom issue in the near future.

Criteria for conditional use permit:
A: The use of the building at 237 B st will conform to all standards within the zoning district
B & C: Our building at 237 B. St has had, and still has, a commercial CUP for the past 32 years.
It was used as a Dental office for 27 of those 32 years. As a dental office we were not required of
have off street parking. In asking for a CUP for a Vacation Rental with 3 units and 4 off street
parking spaces in the rear,we believe there will less auto impact, less foot traffic and equal or
less water&sewer usage,as well as impacting the livability less then when it was a Dental
office.
C 1: there will be no change in scale,bulk or coverage.
C2: Being only 2-3 short blocks to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival and the downtown shops&
restaurants (as well as %block from the food Co-op)there will likely be significant decrease in
Auto usage associated with the vacation rental compared to the usage associated with the Dental
office. Walking will likely be the primary mode of transportation.
C3: Architectural compatibility will remain the same.
C4& C5: Air&noise quality, as well as energy usage should be greatly improved with the
installation of new HVAC systems.
C6 & C7:N/A
Site Review:
Since there is no new building additions to the property, as I have been told,the section on site
approval does not apply.

STEPHENSON-HARVEY HOUSE 1900
237 B STREET 391E09BA 5400
Other:Vernacular Historic Contributing
Local real estate investor George Stephenson purchased this property in 1891 and about 1900
the earlier dwelling was razed for the construction of this one-story wood-frame cottage_ The
Ashland Tidings noted the improvement in its January 1901 building review, valuing the new
structure at$1200. (Tidings 7-Jan-1907). Stephenson,who ownea many Omer propemes in me
area, sold the house in 1907 to Auletta L. Harvey, who maintained.ownership until- 1935. A
hipped-roof volume with a wraparound porch, the Stephenson-Harvey House retains high
integrity and effectively conveys its historic period of development.
ED# 75.0 survey#181
ZELLER-NINRKLE HOUSE 1884-6
225 B STREET 391E09BA 5500
Other:Vernacular Historic Contributing
In 1884 D. W.Zeller, a local blacksmith,started construction of this house,with work valued at
$400 reported in the local paper the following New Years. Two years later the Ashland Tidings
reported "Mr. Zeller is improving his cottage on Spring Street and will make a handsome
dwelling of it" (Tidings, 5-Feb-1886.) Zeller sold the house to George and Julia Markle,
George also working as a blacksmith, a short time later and they in 7th sold the house to J. S.
Silsby in 1895. We detailed,particularly in the porch and gable ene Zeller-Markle House
was thoroughly renovated in 1995-96 with a large compatible addito the rear. The Zeller-
Markle House retains sufficient integrity to effectively relate its historic period of development.

ASHLAND PUBLIC WORKS SHOP 1964
340 A STREET 391E09BA 700
Builder: Golden-Fields Construction[1986 Remodel]
Other:Utilitarian Non-Historic,Non-Contributing
Owned by the City of Ashland since 1954 (JCD 390:235), this structure dates from the earlyy
1960s and the relocation of the city's shops from the comer of First and Lithia Way (See ID
#45.0). As first constructed, this structure consisted of a large concrete warehouse facility
surrounded by covered storage areas for various electric and plumbing materials needed by the
City of Ashland's municipal water and electric utility. In 1986 after the city sold the property
and relocated its shops, Ashland Hardware moved to this location from its longtime downtown
store and the open storage areas were enclosed to create a series of retail spaces.
ID# 77.0 Survey#152
UNKNOWN HOUSE 1890c
248 SECOND ST N 391E09BA 2201
Other:Vernacular Historic,Non-Contributing
Substantial confusion regarding the construction of this one-story wood-frame dwelling remains.
Reportedly built in the late 19th century according to Assessors records, and clearly standing by
1928 as documented in Sanbom Fire Insurance Maps, no owners or occupants were determined
prior to 1948 when Newton Ward and Clarene W. Holmes were apparently renting the property.
Substantially modified with replacement windows and siding covering the entire south-facing
alley elevation, as well as a large(undated but post-1928) addition to the rear,this house retains
general integrity in volume and mass but does not adequately reflect its historic period of
development at this time.
