BOX 145486, SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH 84114-5486 TEL 801.535.6230 FAX 801.535.6005 CITY COUNCIL TRANSMITTAL ________________________ Date Received: _________________ Rachel Otto, Chief of Staff Date sent to Council: _________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ TO: Salt Lake City Council DATE: 3/19/2024 Victoria Petro, Chair FROM: Blake Thomas, Director, Department of Community & Neighborhoods __________________________ SUBJECT: Petition PLNPCM2023-00952 Attached Garages Zoning Text Amendment STAFF CONTACT: Grant Amann, Associate Planner grant.amann@slcgov.com, 801-535-6171 DOCUMENT TYPE: Ordinance RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the ordinance as recommended by Planning Commission BUDGET IMPACT: None BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: In 2021, Utah State code was amended (HB 1003) which imposed limitations on what municipalities can require in terms of design elements. The Salt Lake City Planning Division is proposing a text amendment to primarily update the standards and design elements for attached structures, which includes garages. This proposed amendment removes language stipulating exterior building color, exterior building glass, and roof material/color. This is a direct response to the state code update of 2021. It also removes requirements for standardized entrance landings and residential building foundations which require poured concrete footings because this is already addressed in the building code. The proposal clarifies general yard, bulk, and height standards for accessory structures and their connection to primary structures. This improves administration of the regulations but more importantly helps the public understand the code. rachel otto (Mar 19, 2024 11:35 MDT)03/19/2024 03/19/2024 All modifications proposed are in line with the State code requirements and seek to foster a beautiful city that is both adaptable and responsive to evolving needs and priorities. SUMMARY OF PROPOSED CHANGES: The proposed ordinance language is provided in Exhibit 1. The following changes are being proposed. 1.Amendments to 21A.24.010 – General Provisions •Removal of language dictating design features such as exterior building colors, residential building foundation standards and entrance landing requirements. 2.Amendments to 21A.24.020, 030, 040, 050, 060, 070, 080, 100, 110, and 120 •Removal of language dictating the location of garages doors. This language is a design element that was made illegal to regulate by the updates to the Utah State Code. •Clarification on the location that replacement garages can be built. This language matches the historic interpretation at the city and increases readability and understanding of the code. •Clarification that in FP and FR districts, accessory buildings are not permitted in any required yard, but are permitted in non-required yards. 3.Amendments to 21A.36.190: Residential Building Standards For Legal Conforming Single-Family Detached Dwellings, Two-Family Dwellings And Twin Homes In Nonresidential Zoning Districts •Removal of language dictating foundation standards and entrance landings. This language is redundant and unenforceable in the zoning code because it is already addressed in building code. 4.Amendments to 21A.40.050: General Yard, Bulk, and Height Limitations: •Clarification and addition of language dictating the location of accessory buildings, especially those located in side yards. This language clarifies that accessory buildings are permitted in required interior side yards when located a minimum of 4 feet from any portion of the principal building. •Addition of an illustrative graphic which helps depict this regulation. •Clarification of language dictating the location of accessory buildings in rear yards, which is generally one foot from side and rear lot lines, and no closer than 4 feet to any portion of the principal building. •This clarification also helps distinguish pedestrian connections, such as breezeways, and helps distinguish ‘attached structures’ from structures that would not be considered attached. 5.Amendments to 21A.62.040 -Definitions of Terms •Clarification in the definitions that impact accessory and attached structures. • Clarification in the definition of the “front line of buildings” and that uncovered porches aren’t considered when determining the front line. This is because the location of attached garages can hinge on the location of the porch. PUBLIC PROCESS: • Notice of the project and request for comments was sent to all Recognized Community Councils on November 21, 2023. o No letters or emails were received in opposition to the proposal. • The Planning Commission public hearing was held on January 10th, 2024. The Planning Commission voted unanimously to forward a positive recommendation to the City Council for the proposal as requested by the applicant.

NOTICE OF CITY COUNCIL HEARING NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING The Salt Lake City Council is considering Petitions PLNPCM2023-00952- The Salt Lake City Planning Division is proposing a text amendment to update the standards related to attached structures, which includes garages, entrance landings, and building foundations. In 2021, Utah State code was amended, changing standards required of these structures. The changes to the state code imposed limitations on what municipalities can require in terms of design elements. As a result, City code needs to be updated to match these regulations. The amendment focuses on aligning the standards with city goals and addressing state law. The text amendments apply citywide. As part of their study, the City Council is holding two advertised public hearings to receive comments regarding the petition. During these hearings, anyone desiring to address the City Council concerning this issue will be given an opportunity to speak. The Council may consider adopting the ordinance on the same night of the second public hearing. The hearing will be held electronically: DATE: TIME: PLACE: Room 326, 451 South State Street Salt Lake City, Utah ** This meeting will be held in-person, to attend or participate in the hearing at the City and County Building, located at 451 South State Street, Room 326, Salt Lake City, Utah.
