CONCLUSIONS OF LAW:
1. The Commission reviewed the particular facts and circumstances of the proposed conditional use
(CU-09-23) in terms of Eagle City Code Section 8-7-3-2, "General Standards For Conditional Uses"
and has concluded that the proposed conditional uses:
A. Will, in fact, constitute a conditional use as established in Eagle City Code Section 8-7-3-1(C)
since waivers (with the exception of use) are permitted with the approval of a conditional use
permit;
B. Will be harmonious with and in accordance with the general objectives or with any specific
objective of the Comprehensive Plan and/or this title(Eagle City Code Title 8), (as shown within
the findings provided within this document), since there are no inconsistencies with the
Comprehensive Plan and since waivers (with the exception of use) are permitted with a
conditional use permit, and the applicant will be required to meet conditions of approval required
herein;
Page 9 of 11
K:\Planning Dept\Eagle Applications\CU\2023\CU-09-23 Lehner Family Project\Working Files\CU-09-23-Lehner Family Project PZF.doc
C. Will be designed, constructed, operated and maintained to be harmonious and appropriate in
appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and that such use will
not change the essential character of the same area since the proposed accessory structure will be
constructed to match the architecture of the principal dwelling and the privacy courtyard fence
will be connected to the two(2)structures;
D. Will not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighborhood uses since the proposed
accessory structure will be located within a residential lot of an existing subdivision and the
proposed accessory structure is associated with the existing residential use;
E. Will be served adequately by essential public facilities such as highways, streets, police and fire
protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water and sewer and schools; or that the persons
or agencies responsible for the establishment of the proposed use shall be able to provide
adequately any such services, as noted in the documentation provided from said agencies and as
required as a part of the conditions of approval;
F. Will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities and services
and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community, since the applicant will
bear all costs of construction of the accessory structure and privacy fence;
G. Will not involve uses, activities,processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation that
will be detrimental to any persons, property or the general welfare by reason of excessive
production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors, since the transportation system has
been found to be adequate by ACHD and the proposed accessory structures use is not expected to
generate any noise,smoke,fumes,glare or odors;
H. Will have vehicular approaches to the property which are designed as not to create an interference
with traffic on surrounding public thoroughfares as approved by ACHD and access will be
provided from the existing driveway;and
I. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or historic feature of major
importance, since the applicant is not proposing to remove any trees and there are no scenic or
historic features of major importance on the site.
2. In accordance with Eagle City Code 8-7-3-1(C), the Commission concludes that the waivers of Eagle
City Code Sections 8-3-5(A)(1) and 8-3-3(B)(2) is justified based on the following: 1) The applicant
is not proposing to remove any trees from the site; therefore, the accessory structure will be screened
from the street; 2) The proposed architecture of the accessory structure is harmonious with the
principal dwelling; 3) The Canterbury Architectural Control Committee has approved the design and
location of the accessory building; and 4) The privacy fence connects the principal dwelling and the
accessory structure behind the plane of the accessory structure located closest to the street.
3. Pursuant to Eagle City Code 8-7-3-5 (F), a conditional use permit shall not be considered as
establishing a binding precedent to grant other conditional use permits.
