FINDINGS & ORDERS
PLANNING ACTION: PA-2016-02154
SUBJECT PROPERTY: 467 Scenic Drive
OWNER/APPLICANT: Michael T. Costello & Elaine Yates Family Trust
DESCRIPTION: A request for a Conditional Use Permit and Site Design Review approval to
operate a two-unit Traveler's Accommodation consisting of one owner's unit and one guest unit for the
property located at 467 Scenic Drive.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATION: Low Density Multi-Family Residential; ZONING: R-
2; ASSESSOR'S MAP: 39 lE 05DB; TAX LOT 3602
SUBMITTAL DATE: November 14, 2016
DEEMED COMPLETE DATE: December 13, 2016
STAFF APPROVAL DATE: January 13, 2016
APPEAL DEADLINE (4:30 P.M.): January 25, 2016
FINAL DECISION DATE: January 26, 2016
APPROVAL EXPIRATION DATE: July 26, 2017
DECISION
The subject property is located at 467 Scenic Drive, within the Skidmore Academy Historic District. The
property is zoned R-2 (Low-Density Multi-Family Residential) and is designated the "Charles Van Buskirk
House." The Skidmore Academy historic district survey document describes the home as, "a simple one and
one-half story vernacular volume built with a front facing gable and gable porch. Two large gable wall
dormers augment the volume on the west facing elevation. The house exhibits modest detailing, including
corner boards, narrow window trim and original wood siding. A non-historic fat roof carport is attached to
the (north) elevation. Essentially unchanged in basic character, the Van Buskirk (home) retains substantial
integrity and effectively relates the period of signicance."
The application requests Conditional Use Permit and Site Design Review approval to operate a two-unit
Traveler's Accommodation consisting of one owner's unit and one guest unit. The application notes that
the home has previously been used as a Traveler's Accommodation, and that it is currently configured as
separate units with separate services and a separate entrance to the upstairs. No changes are proposed to
the home or property with the exception of installing larger address numbers on the house and some
additional landscape plantings in the spring.
The property is approximately 10,200 square feet in area, rectangular in shape and relatively flat. The existing
house is two-stories and approximately 2,400 square feet, and was built around 1903. A two-space carport,
likely added to the home in the early 1960's, is in place on the home's north side. The home was used as a
three-unit Traveler's Accommodation (two guest units plus the owner's unit) in the early 1980's. That use
ceased for a time, and the home returned to use as a single family residence until a Traveler's Accommodation
was again approved in the mid-1990's. In the mid-1990's approval it was noted that there were a mixture of
uses within close proximity including business and professional offices, multi-family dwellings, single-family
dwellings, and other Traveler's Accommodations. It was also noted that the base density for the subject
property is three units, and that because the proposed guest units were within the existing home, the proposal
seemed well-suited to the neighborhood.

Under current regulations, Traveler's Accommodations in the R-2 zoning district require Site Design
Review and Conditional Use Permit approval, and are also subject to Special Use Standards which include:
o The property on which the Traveler's Accommodation is sited must be the primary residence of
the business-owner.
o The property must be located within 200 feet of a boulevard, avenue, or neighborhood collector as
identified on the Street Dedication Map in the Comprehensive Plan.
o The primary residence on the site must be at least 20 years old.
o The number of Traveler's Accommodation units allowed is determined by dividing the total square
footage of the lot by 1,800 square feet (i.e. 10,200/1,800 = 5.67).
o Excluding the business-owner's unit and the area of the structure it will occupy, there must be at
least 400 square feet of gross interior floor space remaining per unit.
o Each accommodation unit must have one off-street parking space and the business-owner's unit
must have two off-street parking spaces.
o The property owner must maintain a City of Ashland business license and pay all transient
occupancy tax in accordance with AMC 4.24 and AMC 6.04.
o Advertising for an accommodation must include the City planning action number assigned to the
land use approval.
o Before operation of the Traveler's Accommodation, the structure must be inspected by the Fire
Department and Jackson County Health Department.
The applicants have submitted materials to the Planning Department to demonstrate compliance with the
approval standards. These materials indicate that the applicants will remain the owners/managers of the
property and it will serve as their primary residence. In reviewing the proposal, while previously used as
a Traveler's Accommodation it is unclear that the unit proposed here meets the requirement that there be
400 square feet of gross interior floor space available per unit for guest use. A condition has accordingly
been included to require that the applicants provide a floor plan illustrating how the required interior floor
area is to be provided (i. e, a combination of guest-unit, bathroom and other available interior space such
as the kitchen, laundry or other shared interior space).
The applicants' proposal to operate a two-unit Travelers' Accommodation requires three parking spaces,
one space for the guest unit and two spaces for the owners' unit. There are two spaces available in the
carport and a third space available alongside the driveway configured to meet standards and in the same
configuration used in the previous approvals. The applicants note that there are two sheds in place which
can provide secure, covered bicycle parking as needed for guests.
The application complies with all of the applicable provisions of the R-2 zoning district. The property is
located within the Historic District, but the application involves no exterior changes and will therefore not
impact the historic design or integrity of the impact area. The proposal does not involve any changes to
the building placement, orientation or design. No trees are proposed to be removed. It is the opinion of
Staff that the property has adequate landscaping to meet all standards in AMC 18.4.4. A single guest unit
Travelers' Accommodation will have little or no impact on public facilities.

The approval criteria for a Travelers' Accommodation are detailed in AMC 18.2.3.220 as follows:
Where travelers' accommodations and accessory travelers' accommodations are allowed, they require a
Conditional Permit under chapter 18.5.4, are subject to Site Design Review under chapter 18.5.2, and shall meet

excess of the maximum established by this ordinance. The maximum number of
accommodation units shall not exceed nine per approved traveler's accommodation with
primary lot frontage on boulevard streets. For travelers' accommodation without primary

neighborhood collector street, the maximum number of units shall be seven. Street
designations shall be as determined by the Street Dedication Map in the Comprehensive

The ordinance criteria applicable to this application are attached to this notice. Oregon law states that failure to raise an objection concerning this application,

to LUBA on that criterion. Failure of the applicant to raise constitutional or other issues relating to proposed conditions of approval with sufficient specificity
to allow this Department to respond to the issue precludes an action for damages in circuit court.
A copy of the application, all documents and evidence relied upon by the applicant and applicable criteria are available for inspection at no cost and will be

Application for Type 1 Conditional Use Permit
Site: 467 Scenic Drive
Applicant: Michael Costello/Elaine Yates
Request: Conditional Use Permit - 1 Unit Traveler's Accomodation
Dear Planning Commission Members:
We respectfully submit this application to convert our home, located on Scenic Drive
between Wimer and Maple into a Traveler's Accommodation. The home was built in
1905 (est.) and once sewed as a bed and breakfast in the early 80's. It is a 2 story
farmhouse style home with horizontal clapboard siding.. The lot is zoned R-2, multi
family residential and is located within Ashland's historic district.
Summary of Information
1. lot size: 0.234 acres (10,200 sq. ft.)
2. square footage of home: 2,400
3. number of guest rooms: one, with its own full bathroom
4. parking spaces: 4, 3 off-street and 1 on-street
We are the owners of the property and are the sole proprietors of the Traveler's
Accommodation, living in the downstairs portion of the house and the upstairs third
bedroom/bathroom. The guest room is also upstairs. As a retired couple living on a fixed
income, this would substantially help to make life more affordable. Also, the proximity to
local neighbors and their visiting loved ones would be an asset to this community.
Parking: There is a 2 car covered carport. We hereby apply for one on-street
parking credit. There are presently 46 feet of contiguous curb space from the property
line to the driveway with a 14 foot width driveway itself. There is also a narrow rock
garden between the curb and the property line the length of the curb space.
In an attempt to maintain a design standard, we have a third parking space along the right
side of the driveway, tucked in behind the existing laurel hedge and next to a 5 - 6 foot
high existing (level top rail, not following grade) redwood fence the length of the
w 'i
driveway. This allows all three parking spaces to not interfere with one another at all
times. The fence also allows sunlight into the two front adjacent property back patios.
The parking area has curbs, it is paved with exposed aggregate and brick highlighted
patterns, landscaping, lighting and drainage.
Bicycles: The locking tool shed adjacent to the carport can easily store 2 bicycles as
can the gardening shed in the rear of the property both with locking doors.
Landscaping:
Front yard: Apple tree, cherry tree, mid size variegated maple, 2 ornamental cherry,
large honeysuckle, roses in 2 locations, evergreen row along the southern property line,
rhododendrons, euphorbia, lavender, ornamental grasses, 10 foot tall laurel bush, lawn
grass.
Side yard: Pear tree, maple tree, evergreen row along the southern property line,
sword ferns, 16 feet of 6' redwood fence. Also, there are raised planting beds fully
irrigated that we will be planting come spring with an assortment of vegetables.
Rear yard: 2 variegated maple trees, ornamental cherry tree, large redwood tree (80
feet), 3 cypress trees, hazelnut, ornamental grasses, lavender, salvias, blue fescue, lawn
grass, rosemary, water feature fountain.
We are also in contact with Valley View Nursery regarding plantings for next spring
which will include more ornamental grasses, wisteria, ground covers.
We feel that the site meets a lovely design standard and adds to the historic area in which
it is situated.
This single family, wood framed residence is located near the lower end of Scenic Dr.
just past Nursery Street and provides easy walking access into the plaza - about 10 -12
minutes away.
The property is 10,200 square feet in size, rectangular and relatively flat. The house is 2
story and 2,400 square feet in area.
General:
The house is presently set up as traveler's accommodations. Each of the 2 upstairs
bedrooms has its own en suite bathroom and is set up to rent out one or both of the
upstairs suites. Our intention however, is to use only one of the bedrooms (rear) and use
the other for our own needs ie. sewing room, music/rec room.
The house is zoned in low density residential ( R-2) but has a mixture of uses ncai•by such
as multi-family dwellings, single family dwellings. The house is essentially 2 units with
o ;
separate gas and electric meters, separate furnaces and A/C. There is also a side door
which gives the traveler their own private entrance.
A carport houses the owner's 2 vehicles and there is ample room in the driveway for
another vehicle.
There is also a fully enclosed back yard with 3 seating areas, a water feature fountain and
an abundance of chairs for relaxing.
This property is business owner occupied as a primary residence. There will be no
signage anywhere on the property illuminated or otherwise. A larger more visible street
number will be added for easier identification.
Respectfully submitted,
Michael Costello and Elaine Yates
