Discussion and Possible Action Including Board Direction to Staff Regarding Potential Amendment to Chapter 18.23 of the Mendocino County Code (Class K Ordinance), to Remove the Square Foot Maximum Restrictions for Limited Density Rural Dwellings
(Sponsor: Planning and Building Services)
End
Recommended Action/Motion:
recommendation
Provide direction to staff regarding an amendment to Chapter 18.23 of the Mendocino County Code, more commonly known as the Class K Ordinance, to remove the square foot maximum restriction for limited density rural dwellings.
End
Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
On March 13, 2018, the Board adopted Ordinance 4404, Amending Chapter 18.23, Limited Density Rural Dwellings, of the Mendocino County Code.
Summary of Request:
Pursuant to Chapter 18.23.250, adopted in 2018, the maximum size for a Class K residential structure in the County is 2,000 square feet. Staff has received questions from property owners who desire to build Class K structures greater than this not to exceed square footage. As part of the public input for and drafting of our 2019-2027 Housing Element, a primary focus is to identify impediments to housing production. Staff believes that this square footage limitation for Class K residential structures may be limiting housing production in the County. We recommend that the Board direct staff to amend Chapter 18.23.250 and remove the limitation on the size of Class K residential structures.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Provide Direction to Staff.
