On agenda (items 25-27).
2026-10-05 - Planning and Zoning Commission
At the public hearing the applicant said the detached garage's upstairs unit was meant as a suite for a family member and had been listed as a short-term rental, since taken down. Photos showed a wall dividing the garage bays, a tiled shower and toilet room and a kitchen counter with cooktop and small refrigerator. Staff said there are no permits on file for the finish-out (plumbing, mechanical, electrical), that an accessory building should not have its own electric meter, and that long-term rental of an accessory unit is not permitted either. The Commission recommended denial 9-0; Council has the final say October 29.

Staff recommended denial; the garage was converted to a dwelling without permits and no new plans were submitted. Proceeds to hearing.
