RESOLUTION #P.C. 040-2019
APPROVAL OF A METAL ACCESSORY STRUCTURE
FOR THE JAHNS PROPERTY LOCATED IN THE NE ¼ & NW ¼ OF SECTION 26
(TAX KEY NO. 2261.985 / W145 S9611 GROVEWAY LANE)
WHEREAS, A site plan and building drawings were submitted to construct a 40’ x 80’ metal accessory structure (totaling 2,800
square feet) on the Jahns property located at W145 S9611 Groveway Lane (Tax Key No. 2261.985), and
WHEREAS, The property is zoned RL-1 – Lakeshore Residence District, and said structure is a permitted accessory use and
subject to Plan Commission review due to the proposed architectural materials shown, more specifically due to a proposed
steel roof, and
WHEREAS, A home residence currently exists on site and the existing accessory structures currently on the property will be
removed for the new accessory structure, and
WHEREAS, The proposed square footage of 2,800 square feet is within the total allowable square footage for accessory
structures on this property, which meets the bulk requirements of the Zoning Code, and
WHEREAS, The accessory structure will be used for personal storage only, and
WHEREAS, The proposed height is approximately 16 feet, as measured by code, which is within the allowed height given the
additional setback and lot area, and
WHEREAS, The structure is proposed to be sided with LP siding with colors to match the house and a steel roof and said
proposal does not meet the Plan Commission’s standards for administrative approval of residential accessory structures as the
roofing does not match the materials of the primary residence, and
WHEREAS, The colors of the siding and stone wainscoting will be a brown tone (similar to the home), the roof and soffits will
all be similar to the roof on the home.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, The Plan Commission approves of a 2,800 square foot accessory structure with a metal roof
for the Jahns property located at W145 S9611 Groveway Lane (Tax Key No. 2261.985).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the building and lot cannot be used for the operations of any business activities or for
business storage.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The floor of the entire building must be concrete or asphalt, unless a specific portion is only to
be used by animals.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The colors of the proposed building must be similar to the colors of the home (roof and walls).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The depth of the overhangs on all sides of the building must at least be equal to those on the
main home.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, The existing accessory structures on the lot must be removed as part of the permit issuance for
this new building.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That the Plan Commission approves of the accessory structure due to no undue harm to the
surrounding properties, due to the distance from the roadway, due to the dense vegetation on the lot and due to the structure
having siding colors to match the home.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That failure to comply with the terms of this resolution and the approved site plans shall result
in the issuance of fines of $100 per day per violation, the initiation of legal action, or both.
