PRIVATE SCHOOLS IN RESIDEPdTIAL DISTRICTS: RECOMPIENDED TITLE 25 CODE AMENDMENT CP Yost reviewed his staff report da+ed 10/2/79. He noted the five conditional uses which require a special permit in the R-1 District, particularly the sections relating to types of schools, and the requirement that a private school be non-profit. Staff believed the code procedure for review of schools in residential districts provided sufficient safeguards, and that the prohibition against a profit making private school appeared to be excessive. Code changes were recommended. After some discussion Commission agreed the non-profit requirement could be omitted and requested staff prepare the necessary code amendment for transmittal to City Counci 1. 7o MINIMUM GARAGE IJIDTH IN THE R-1 DISTRICT: RECOMMENDED TITLE 25 CODE AMENDMENT CP Yost reviewed his staff report dated 10/3/79. He noted parking space requirements for all districts, and the code requirements for additions to older homes which have resulted in time consuming processing of variances. Staff recommended that additions and enlargements to older homes with garages not less than 18' wide be allowed with a building permit, providing all other zoning ordinance requirements are met. Additions �nd enlargements to homes with garanes less than 18' wide would continue to require a variance from the Planning Commission. The present requirement that all new single family homes with three or more bedrooms shall have two covered parking spaces 20'x20' would remain unchanged. _
