Summary

The Aurora Planning and Zoning Commission approved a conditional use permit for a 480 sq ft accessory dwelling unit above an existing garage at 1372 North Kenton Street, subject to a condition that building-permit submittals match the proposed plans and elevations.

The Aurora Planning and Zoning Commission voted 7–0 to approve a conditional use permit for an accessory dwelling unit at 1372 North Kenton Street.

Planner Morgan Jennings told the commission the proposed detached ADU would be 480 square feet, located over an existing garage with an alley parking space and about 102 square feet of private outdoor space. Jennings said the project met setback, height, material and design standards in the Unified Development Ordinance and recommended approval with the condition that building-permit submittals match the proposed plans and elevations. "Staff finds that agenda item 8A meets the criteria for approval with the condition that building permit submittals for the ADU must be consistent with the proposed plan and elevations," Jennings said.

Commissioner Riley moved to approve based on the staff recommendation and discussion at the public hearing; Commissioner Venkat seconded. Commissioners briefly commented that while ADUs have not appeared frequently before the commission recently, this proposal is a good example of an ADU that fits the neighborhood. The approval was recorded as 7 in favor, with the same condition quoted by staff.

The approval does not change permit requirements: the applicant must submit building permits consistent with the plans and elevations approved by the commission. No further public testimony was received on this item.
