Commission approves accessory dwelling unit at 30 S. 800 W.
Summary
Lois Kunz received commission approval April 8 to place an accessory dwelling unit on an existing foundation at 30 S. 800 W.; commissioners noted two water meters and utilities are available, approved a setback exception and advised she must submit blueprints and a $150 building permit before engineering inspections.
The Hinckley Planning and Zoning Commission approved an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) on an existing foundation at 30 S. 800 W. (Parcel H-HM16) during its April 8 meeting.
Applicant Lois Kunz told the commission her lot already contains two foundations, two water meters and electricity to both foundations and that she intends to build a unit matching the existing log cabin on the neighboring foundation. The commission reviewed setbacks and acknowledged the secondary foundation sits 9 feet from the primary home; commissioners agreed an exception would allow the ADU (with the record noting the separation is likely more than 10 feet). The ADU plan includes a three-quarter bath, kitchenette and a combined living/bedroom area and will not use a south-side entrance where a crawl space is located.
Commission members advised Kunz that Hinckley requires a building permit (a $150 fee noted in the meeting) before Sunrise Engineering will perform inspections and that she must submit blueprints and engineering plans at a future meeting. Commission Member Clark Mortensen moved to approve the ADU on the existing foundation and Margene Stevens seconded the motion.
