LU-2023-0379 For Possible Action: Discussion and possible action regarding a request from Tom Metcalf (“Applicant”) to modify an approved Special Use Permit (“SUP”) (LU-2022-0397) to allow for the construction of an accessory structure with a cumulative square footage totaling 5.44 percent of the parcel size on a property zoned Single Family Residential – 1 Acre-Planned Unit Development (“SF1A-P”) located at 2659 Skyview Court, Assessor’s Parcel Number (“APN”) 007-671-09.

Staff Summary: The Applicant is proposing construction of a 1,584 square foot accessory structure (guest house, attached covered patio, and attached garage). A guest house and garage are permitted accessory uses in the SF1A-P use district; however, Carson City Municipal Code (“CCMC”) 18.05.055(8) requires approval of an SUP if the accessory structure exceeds five percent of the parcel size on parcels twenty-one thousand square feet or larger. When the original SUP was submitted, this code requirement was inadvertently not reviewed for compliance.
