The proposed building would be taller than the main home by roughly 6.5 feet. The second bullet point is I.3.(c2). The building would be within 20-feet of the property lines. In this case, the average wall height above grade cannot exceed 16- feet. The applicant proposes an average wall height above grade of 17.5-feet. The application is compliant with the remainder of the bullet points, and has no second level with windows or doors. The application does not include space for an ADU, which is where the architecture compatibly of materials applies. Since this is not an ADU, the materials do not need to be compatible. The materials, however, still need to be high quality, durable, and low maintenance. If a detached/guesthouse ADU is constructed without the appropriate permits/approvals from the Building and Planning Departments; the property would be in violation of City Code. The City could become aware of this knowledge either through a general code compliance sweep of the area or via a Code Complaint. Code Enforcement would investigate, and work with the property owners to remediate the violation. The property owner could be required to obtain the proper permits/approval or remove the building from the property or remove the ADU space from the building. The application does not include ADU space, but the building could become a guesthouse ADU in the future with the proper permits. The owner originally had the building designed with a second level ADU, but could not satisfy the requirements of both the Planning and Building Departments. The plans were modified to reflect what is shown in the packet. From: Steven Catmull <SCatmull@sjc.utah.gov> Sent: Tuesday, March 26, 2024 3:00 PM To: Andrew McDonald <AMcDonald@sjc.utah.gov> Subject: Architecture Questions for the Bonanza item Hi Andrew, In the packet for tonight you highlighted 17.40.020(I.1) for architecture. It was not clear to me which one of the 4 bullet points the applies to this application. The packet mentioned the two items in 17.40.020(I.3). The vinyl material seems a little unusual compared to recent applications. Could you confirm if there are serious repercussions for an applicant who constructs an ADU without the necessary permit, but it’s otherwise up to code? I recall discussing that if there were code violations and a Compliance inspection was triggered due to a complaint or other reason, the ADU would need to be removed or brought into compliance. Is that correct? Thanks, Commissioner Catmull Oh, and thanks for pasting the code sections in there. That was helpful.
