Request
The applicant, Stephan Adams, is requesting approval of a conditional use permit for additional accessory structure square footage for animal structures and additional height for a detached garage for a property located at 1502 E.

See application materials for details in Exhibit A (applicant letter) and Exhibit B (site plan and elevations).
Please see the attached staff report and exhibits for the full details of the request.
Recommended Action and/or Suggested Motion:
