Ordinance updates accessory building design standards to match primary structures
Summary
Ordinance 610 amends the UDC to require accessory buildings and structures to match primary building materials, colors and roof design regardless of visibility, with limited exceptions for agricultural and R‑1 districts; council approved the ordinance unanimously.
Sean presented a short amendment (Ordinance 610) to update design requirements for accessory buildings and structures so materials, colors, textures and roof design must match the primary structure even if the accessory building is not visible from a public right of way. He said the change adds an exception for agricultural and R‑1 zoning districts and allows consideration of exceptions by the city manager if compatibility with surrounding properties is demonstrated.
Council opened the public hearing for the ordinance, received no comments, and voted unanimously to adopt the ordinance. Sean characterized the change as a cleanup to ensure accessory buildings are compatible with primary structures and neighborhood character.
