2 of 2
Hubbard: Summarized the request for the proposed Façade Exception, specifically for the
request to increase the permitted percentage of secondary materials. Noted the current
Planned Development-67 regulations require the inclusion of awnings and canopies in the
secondary material calculations.
Commission: Inquired about elements comprising secondary materials; the secondary material
calculation percentage without awnings and canopies included; the orientation of buildings;
known tenants; and the percentage of buildings with known tenants. Indicated concern for
allowing increased secondary materials for unknown tenants.
David Culbertson (Architect): Stated the proposed request allows the architectural flexibility for
tenants to establish their national branding. Indicated the inclusion of awnings and canopies is
prohibitive to keeping secondary materials within 10% of an elevation, and noted the west facing
elevations necessitate the inclusion of awnings and canopies.
Commission: Commissioners generally expressed support for the proposed Façade Exception
primarily due to scale of the buildings; the limitation caused by canopies and awnings counting
toward the secondary material percentage; the need for awnings and canopies for the west
facing elevations; the need to allow tenants the ability to establish their national branding; and
secondarily, to allow for architectural flexibility.
Motioned by Snyder, seconded by Daniel, to approve the Façade Exception. Motion approved
7-0.
5. Review actions taken by the Town Council and possibly direct Town Staff to
schedule topic(s) for discussion at a future meeting.
Webb: Discussed action taken by Town Council at the June 28, 2016, meeting.
6. Adjourn.
Motioned by Andres, seconded by Daniel, to adjourn. Motioned approved 7-0. Meeting was
adjourned at 6:32 p.m.

Re: Amendments to the Zoning Ordinance re: Accessory Structures and Guest
Houses
Date: July 15, 2016
As I briefly noted at the conclusion of the July 5th meeting, staff would be briefing the Council
regarding issues with accessory structures and guest houses. The attached document was
reviewed by the Council at their July 12th meeting.
Staff received direction from the Council to initiate formal amendments regarding these uses.
Similar to the recent modifications to the Zoning Ordinance regarding residential development
standards and the permitted uses, staff will provide a draft of the proposed changes to the
Commission for feedback, prior to scheduling the first formal Public Hearing.

Re: Town Council Meeting – July 12, 2016
Agenda Item:
Discuss proposed amendments to the Zoning Ordinance regarding accessory structures and
guest houses.
Description of Agenda Item:
Recent developments of accessory structures and guest houses have warranted the need to
review the standards of these uses to ensure the structures do not have a negative impact on
adjacent residential properties.
Accessory Structures:
The Zoning Ordinance currently has the following standards:
“DETACHED GARAGE AND ACCESSORY BUILDING CONSTRUCTION
A. The exterior facades of a detached garage or other accessory building or structure
greater than one hundred and sixty (160) square feet shall be subject to the same
exterior construction material(s) requirements as the main building or structure.
B. An accessory building that is larger than one hundred and sixty (160) square feet may
be vinyl, cementatious fiber board, or factory coated decorative metal if the wall height
of the building does not exceed fourteen (14) feet and if three (3) of the following six
(6) conditions are met:
1. A minimum three (3) foot high wainscoting is provided on all sides, excluding
windows and doors,
2. Divided light windows are provided on at least two sides of the building,
3. A minimum roof pitch of four (4) in twelve (12) is provided,
4. A cupola is provided,
5. One (1) tree, a minimum size of one (1) caliper inch, is planted every twenty (20)
feet, or portion thereof, along the longest sides of the building, or
6. A minimum twenty (20) foot side yard setback is provided
C. Metal or wood may be used as an exterior construction material for an accessory
building or structure of one hundred and sixty (160) square feet or less in an SF or 2F
District.
D. Cementatious fiber board may be used to fulfill masonry requirements for structures
accessory to an existing structure constructed entirely of wood or vinyl siding.”
Prosper is a place where everyone matters.
PLANNING
3
The development standards for structures greater than 160 square feet were added to the Zoning
Ordinance in an attempt to ensure the buildings were compatible with the residential character of
the neighborhood, while allowing larger structures. As pictured below, staff desires to receive
feedback from Council if these standards are sufficient.

Issues to consider:
•Relation of size of accessory structure to residence
•Relation of height of accessory structure to residence
•Exterior materials for larger structures

Guest Houses
As defined by the Zoning Ordinance, a “guest house” is an “accessory dwelling unit, detached
from the main building on the lot, used to house family and/or guests of the owner(s) of the main
residential structure, and which is never rented or offered for rent.” Also commonly referred to as
“mother-in-law suite” or “granny flat,” the intent is to accommodate a smaller residential structure
on the same, larger lot as the main home.
The Zoning Ordinance permits Guest Houses by right in all residential districts and the Downtown
Retail District but provides for the following standards:
”A Guest House shall be permitted in the Agricultural through the Downtown Retail Districts as an
incidental residential use of a building on the same lot or tract as the main dwelling unit and used
by the same person or persons of the immediate family and shall meet the following standards:
A. The Guest House must be constructed to the rear of the main dwelling, separate from the
main dwelling. A lot must have a minimum of one-half (½) acre for a Guest House to be
permitted.
B. The Guest House may be constructed only upon issuance of a Building Permit.
C. The Guest House may not be sold separately from sale of the entire property, including the
main dwelling unit, and shall not be sub-let.
D. Setback requirements shall be the same as for the main structure.”
Similar to accessory structures, the Zoning Ordinance does not regulate the size and height of a
guest house in relation to the main dwelling. Nor does the ordinance regulate the number of
guests houses permitted on a lot. While self-regulated on a smaller lot, a one-acre lot could
potentially accommodate multiple guest houses. For instance, a one-acre lot with a 5,000 square-
foot, two story main home could potentially accommodate an additional five “guest houses” being
two stories at 6,000 square feet each.
Town Staff Recommendation:
Town staff requests that the Town Council provide input on possible amendments to the Zoning
Ordinance regarding accessory structures and guest houses and provide direction on whether to
initiate a formal amendment to the Zoning Ordinance.
