PUBLIC HEARING: ORDINANCE CONCERNING A CODE AMENDMENT TO ALLOW FOR <br />TEMPORARY MOBILE HOME HARDSHIP PERMITS (CA 88-05) <br /> <br />City Manager Mike ~leason introduced the topic. Jean Hahn, Planning, <br />Development, and Building Department said the hardship permit process would <br />allow the temporary placement of a mobile home on a developed residential lot <br />for the purposes of housing an ailing, physically or mentally disabled family <br />member. The proposal under consideration was recommended to the council by <br />the Planning Commission at its February 13, 1989, meeting. The process <br />differs from that which is currently administered by the City in the urban <br />transition area in that the City would send written notification to adjacent <br />properties that a request to locate a temporary mobile home has been <br />submitted for review by the Planning Director. The administrative decision <br />on the request would be based on the submission of written proof by a medical <br />professional, compliance with 17 development standards (included as part of <br />the ordinance), and the compatibility with the surroundings, particularly <br />when residential in character. The Planning Director's decision could be <br />appealed to the Eugene Hearings Official. <br /> <br />'Ms. Hahn explained that the approved mobile, home hardship permit would be <br />valid for two years and could be renewed by applying for renewal with the <br />Planning Office. The permit would be a binding, contractual agreement <br />between the City and the applicant. <br /> <br />Ms. Hahn said that the standards included in the ordinance were developed to <br />address concerns regarding compatibility of the temporary mobile home with <br />existing residential areas and generalized mobile home siting concerns. <br /> <br />Ms. Hahn encouraged councilors to direct questions regarding enforcement to <br />Marsha Miller of the Building Division who has prior experience with the <br />issuance of temporary mobile home hardship permits and enforcing violations <br />of those permits as a former Lane County employee. <br /> <br />MINUTES--Eugene City Council <br /> <br />February 27, 1989 <br /> <br />Page 1 <br />
