DECISION
Subject Property
The subject parcel is located on the Southwest corner of B Street and 3`d Street. The property is
rectangular, with an area of approximately 7,840 square feet. The parcel and immediate
surrounding uses are zoned R-2, Multiple -family Residential. B Street is identified as an Avenue
and is improved with paving, curb and gutters in place. Sidewalks exist in front of and to the side
of the subject property and throughout the rest of the street.
According to Jackson County tax records, the property currently has a 1,823 square foot single-
family home constructed in about 1888 and a second residence of approximately 604 square feet
at the rear of the property. Both residences currently have city facilities including water, sewer,
gas, and electric service. The applicant is applying for a CUP for approval of a single -unit
Traveler's Accommodation in the 604 square foot ARU. No changes to the site are proposed and
thus, the bulk of Site Design Review standards do not apply here.
Conditional Use Permit & Special Use Standards
The application is required to meet the special use standards for a Travelers' Accommodation in
AMC 18.2.3.220 and the approval criteria for a Conditional Use Permit in AMC 18.5.4.050. A
Travelers' Accommodation is an allowed use in the R-2 zone if it meets the Special Use
Standards. Those standards include:
PA -T1-2022-00190
386 B St./jt
Page 1
• That the property is located within 200 feet of a boulevard, avenue or neighborhood
collector. The property fronts B St. satisfying this requirement.
• The property on which the Travelers' Accommodation is sited must be the primary
residence of the business owner. The application has indicated that this will be the case
and that the applicants reside in the home at 386 B St.
• The primary residence must be at least 20 years old. As indicated by Jackson County
assessor year built data above, the house is more than 20 years old.
• The allowed number of units is determined by dividing the total square footage of the lot
by 1,800 square -feet (e.g. 7840/1800 — 4.4). This property would allow a total of 4 units.
The applicant has proposed only a single unit as a Travelers' Accommodation.
• Each unit must have 400 square -feet of gross interior floor space. The ARU is 604 square
feet, meeting this standard.
The applicant's proposal to operate a single guest -unit Travelers' Accommodations requires a
total of three parking spaces; One for each guest -unit and two for the property owner. The
application materials include a site plan indicating two off street parking spaces and 'includes a
request for an on -street credit for the third parking space requirement. The applicant monitored
on -street parking at this location during May 2022, demonstrating that parking spaces are
consistently available. The location of the accommodation also promotes non -automotive
methods of transportation. Staff finds that based on the impact and known parking availability
that approving the request for an on -street credit is reasonable.
The applicant is required to provide two bicycle parking spaces. The small shed on the property
provides space for bicycle storage.
The targeted use of an equivalent property in the R-2 zone would be 2.43 dwelling units because
of the lot size. Staff finds that the proposed use will not generate more traffic than two full-time
residences as hotel/motel use is shown to have a lower trip generation than single family homes.
The Traveler's Accommodation will not affect the development of adjacent properties. The
application complies with all of the applicable provisions of the R-2 zoning district, the Special
Use Standards AMC 18.2.3.220 and the Conditional Use Permit approval criteria AMC
18.5.4.050.
The property is currently served by adequate City facilities for water, sewer, storm drainage and
electricity. In staff's assessment, the proposal will not have a greater adverse material impact on
the impact area in terms of architectural compatibility, air quality, and generation of traffic,
noise, light and glare and the development of adjacent properties than the prior use of the
property, or the target use allowable within the zone.
In accordance with the Land Use Ordinance, Notice of Complete Application (HOCA) was
mailed to all surrounding properties within 200' of the subject property, as well as a physical
notice posted along the frontage. After the mailing of the NOCA, no public comment received
either in favor or opposition.

The applicant has submitted a burden of proof document showing that they meet the criteria of
approval for a Conditional Use Permit, and the proposed use is in conformance with the zoning
district requirements as well as the special use standards.
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

travelers' accommodation is sited must be the primary residence of the business -
owner. "Business -owner" shall be defined as a person or persons who own 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 lot frontage on a designated
boulevard, but within 200 feet of a boulevard, avenue, or 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 Plan. Distances to the property from a boulevard, avenue,
or neighborhood collector shall be measured via a public street or public

access to and throughout the development, and adequate transportation can and will be provided to
the subject property.

the following factors of livability of the impact area shall be considered in relation to the target use
of the zone.
Finding:
The requested conditional use permit can be compared to using the property as two residential
units, the primary residence and a second residential unit.
a) Similarity in scale, bulk and coverage.
Finding:
There are no anticipated changes in scale, bulk or coverage.
b) Generation of traffic and effects on surrounding streets. Increases in pedestrian, bicycle, and
mass transit are considered beneficial regardless of capacity of facilities.
Finding;
The generation of traffic from the property for the use of the cottage as a travelers'
accommodations will generate similar vehicle trips as residential uses would. According to other
travelers' accommodation operators, often, the ability for guests to walk or bike or use transit
while visiting is more appealing that driving and dealing with parking.
There are two on-site parking spaces and ample on -street parking spaces along the two street
frontages.
c) Architectural compatibility with the impact area.
Findin :
There will be no changes to the exterior architecture of the historic contributing structure, nor
to the cottages.
d) Air quality, including the generation of dust, odors, or other environmental pollutants.
Finding:
The proposed use of the property as a travelers' accommodation will not generate dust, odor or
other environmental pollutants more than the existing residential units do.
e) Generation of noise, light, and glare.
Finding:
The use of the property as a travelers' accommodation would create similar or less noise in the
neighborhood than two, full-time, residential units. Light and glare would be similar as a
residential use.
f) The development of adjacent properties as envisioned in the comprehensive plan.
Finding:
The approval of the requested conditional use permit will not have an impact on the
development of the adjacent properties as envisioned in the comprehensive plan.
g) Other factors found to be relevant by the approval authority for review of the proposed use.
Finding:
There are no other known relevant factors.
4. A conditional use permit shall not allow a use that is prohibited or one that is not permitted pursuant
to this ordinance.
Finding:
A Traveler's accommodation use is permitted pursuant to this ordinance.
5. For the purposes of reviewing conditional use permit applications for conformity with the approval
criteria of this subsection, the target uses of each zone are as follows.
c) R-2:
Finding:
Based on the lot area, 8,045 square feet, the lot can have a primary residential dwelling unit and
second residential dwelling. The present configuration is a two -unit dwelling layout.
