Large Vehicle Parking Buildings:
Chapter 18.68 currently allows for a 1,000 sq. ft. building with an attached additional 400 sq. ft. for other use.
ZCA 2023-04 will amend Chapter 18.68 so that:
the additional 400 sq. ft. allowance is not interpreted to only allow an attached "lean to" building but can be combined with the 1,000 sq. ft. allowance (for a creative design).
ZCA 2023-04
Storage Containers:
Currently allowed (in the Building Code) with a CUP when over 120 sq. ft.
ZCA 2023-04 will amend Chapter 18.68 so that:
Storage containers 240 sq. ft. and under (but over 120 sq. ft.) are allowed with a building permit (no CUP); and These storage containers be subject to design criteria, and no more that one 240 sq. ft. container (but over 120 sq. ft) for every 20,000 sq. ft. of lot area.
CA 2023-04
Storage Containers:
Chapter 15.02 – “Building Code”, Section 15.02.150 – "Conversion of Cargo Carriers“ currently addresses the provision for storage containers.
CA 2023-04 will amend Chapter 15.02 to:
Reference that storage container 240 square feet or less are subject to the requirements of Chapter 18.68.
ZCA 2023-04
Buildings 120 sq. ft. or less (including storage containers):
Do not require a building permit but are not by default exempt from zoning criteria.

Buildings 120 sq. ft. or less are addressed for setbacks: min 5 feet from property line; min 5 feet between structures; and Building height: max wall height of 8 feet and max overall height 14 feet to the peak.
ZCA 2023-05
Roof Overhangs/Eaves
The Zoning Code does not address roof overhangs/eaves when a building such as an ADU is as close as 4 feet to the property line:
