ZONING ORDINANCE Al18~NDHENT - 110TH2:R-IN-1A'tl APARTM.ENTS: The Council discussed the
Plaming Commission recommendation whetlier to allow mother-in-lavJ apartments in the
R-l Use District. The Planning Cowrlission recommended that Ordinance 47 not be
amended to include mother-in-law apartments and suggested the Council investigate
the possibility of licensing or issuing a conditional use permit for a mother-in-law
apartment. The Council felt the key to enforcing the present ordinance is Vlhether
the home has tHO totally separate entrances or one main entrance for everyone. By
closing the home off this creates two separate living facilities. The Ci ty At~or?ey
suggested that "this is for single family res~dents anI!" be v¡YÌ tten on the b1JJ..lding
permit. He further suggested leaving the ~rdlnance as ~_s and us~ the framev¡ork
of the issuance of a building permit spellJ..ng out what lS to go In the home as a
single family home in an R-l District.
