DECISION
The proposal is to renovate the interior of the existing house and garage by increasing the garage
floor elevation, re -orienting the roof, and adding a covered front porch to the house. The existing
house and garage encroach on the required front yard setback making them non -conforming with
regard to the front yard setback. As provided in AMC 18.1.4.030.13 a non -conforming structure
may be altered (i.e., reconstructed, enlarged, or modified) subject to approval of a Conditional Use
Permit (CUP). The existing building was constructed in 1946, prior to the adoption of modern land
use regulations, and as such is considered a legal non -conforming structure.
The subject property is on the east side of Roca Street and is zoned SO with adjacent properties
zoned R-1-7.5, Low Density Single -Family Residential. Most, if not all the homes in the
neighborhood were constructed in the 1940's and 1950's, as such their development pre -dates the
adoption of a modern land use ordinance and are considered legally non -conforming. In this case,
only about half of the homes meet a 15 -foot front yard setback for the house and a 20 -foot setback
for the garage. The subject property does not meet either setback, with the garage located
approximately four feet from the property line and the house located approximately ten feet from
the property line, with the new proposed three-foot projected eave for a covered front entry at
approximately seven feet from the property line.
In staff s assessment, the proposed renovation and addition of the covered front entry is de minimus
in nature, and is consistent with the established character of the surrounding neighborhood. The
existing non -conforming setbacks are mitigated by the fact that the front property line is
approximately 18 feet, six -inches behind the curb. The modification to the garage's envelope by
rotating the roof 90 degrees will allow for the garage door and floor to be raised to an elevation

where safe passage would be possible; currently vehicles are unable to enter the garage safely. As
provided in AMC 18,2.4.050.8. eaves and awnings are allowed to encroach three feet into required
yards and other architectural projections are allowed to encroach 18 -inches. The applicant has
indicated that a three-foot eave to act as a covered front entry which will not alter the setback of
the house. The property is currently served by adequate city facilities for water, sewer, storm
drainage and electricity, and the proposal will not create any greater demand on those services. In
staffs assessment, the proposal will not have a greater adverse material impact on the impact area
in terns of architectural compatibility, air quality, and generation of traffic, noise, light and glare,
or the development of adjacent properties, or the target use allowable within the zone.
In accordance with the Land Use Ordinance, public notice was mailed to all property owners within
200 feet of the subject property as well as a physical notice. During the public comment period no
comments were received either in support or opposition to the application.
The applicants have submitted materials to the Planning Department that demonstrate compliance
with the approval criteria and standards, and by their reference the applicants findings are
incorporated herein as if set out in full.

668 Roca Street narrative to accompany a request for a conditional use permit
The owners, Robert and Amy Dahla, request approval to remodel the garage of an existing
residence at 668 Roca Street, Ashland. The approval is essential to be able to use the garage
and minimize water incursion for the following reasons:
1. The steep slope of the driveway and low height of the garage door prevents all but the
shortest vehicles from entering the garage.
2. The -19% slope of the driveway from the curb runs directly into the garage opening.
There is obvious past water damage apparent inside the garage.
3. Apparently, previous owners found it difficult to use the garage since the door has been
removed and the opening sealed.
4. The property was subdivided in 1907 and the present residence built in 1946.
S. There will be no change to the present building footprint, home use, or location on the
property. The continued use as a residence is in conformance with all standards of the
neighborhood.
G. No additional utilities will be required. All utilities are presently connected to and
servicing the residence. A fire hydrant is located 118 feet from the NW property corner
at the juncture of Fern Street and Roca Street.
7. The repair and restoration of the vintage residence will have a positive impact on the
neighborhood. Additional restoration work will include weatherization upgrades of
windows, doors, and insulation in addition to the many items identified in the
accompanying construction drawings. No unpermitted or prohibited uses will occur.
Owner's desire to remedy the listed problems by performing the following:
1. Raise the garage 12" to permit a slope on the garage floor to the door and to
create a valley and grated gutter 24" in front of the garage opening.
2. Raise the garage door to a normal 7' height.
3. This will require changing the profile of the garage to permit the described work raising
the garage from 12' to 14-6. The present ridge of the existing home is 13-6_ Solar calcs
place the shadow well within the north property line.
4. Raising the garage floor elevation will also reduce the angle that a vehicle must take to
enter the garage making it possible for the owner to use the garage.

PRE -APPLICATION CONFERENCE
INFORMATION SHEET & SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS
PURPOSE
Updated 7/9/2021

contact the Planning Division of the Community Development Department for assistance at (541) 488-5305.
The purpose of the pre -application conference is to allow the applicant and the City Staff to meet and discuss the
proposed project early in the development process. This early review and meeting helps to identify opportunities and
key issues prior to preparation and submission of the Planning application. Before a proposal goes before the Planning
Commission for approval, most of the issues can be worked out so that the project is ready for review with few
additional changes or conditions needed.
PROCESS
Requests for a pre -application conference must be submitted to the Planning Division a minimum of two weeks in
advance of the scheduled meeting. Pre -application conferences are scheduled for Wednesdays between 2:00 and
4:00 PM. These conferences are scheduled on a first come — first served basis. A time cannot be reserved without

to the Project Planner. Where applicable, other agencies such as the Oregon Department of Transportation and
Jackson County will be invited to comment.
At the conclusion of the pre -application conference, you will receive a list of comments on what you will need to submit
for your planning action. In some cases, the Project Planner may recommend waiving the pre -application meeting if
the pre -application comments are self-evident and there are no critical issues.
Once the pre -application comments are issued, you have six months to submit for your planning action. if more than
six months elapse from the time of the conference to your planning application, a second conference may be required
due to potential code changes.

Pre -Application Conference
668 Roca Street remodel narrative
The owners, Bob and Amy Dahla, request approval to remodel the garage of an existing
residence at 668 Roca Street, Ashland. The approval is essential to be able to use the garage
and minimize water incursion for the following reasons:
1. The steep slope of the driveway and low height of the garage door prevents all but the
shortest vehicles from entering the garage.
2. The slope of the driveway runs directly into the garage opening with obvious past
interior water damage apparent.
3. Apparently previous owners were also unable to enter or use the garage since the door
had been sealed permanently.
4. There will be no change to the present building footprint.
Owner's desire to remedy the listed problems by performing the following:
1. Raise the garage 12" to permit a slope on the garage floor to the door and to
create a valley and grated gutter 24" in front of the garage opening.
2. Raise the garage door to a normal 7' height.
3. This will require changing the profile of the garage to permit the described work with
only a minor raise in overall building height.
4. Raising the garage floor elevation will also reduce the angle that a vehicle need take to
enter the garage making it possible for the owner's vehicles.
