The City Manager has requested qualification of Item #3 of this communication relative to the erection of garages or other accessory buildings prior to the erection of a residence or dwelling in a residential zone. It is not the intent of the Commission to prevent erection of such buildings, but in many instances owners have taken out permits for erection of same stating that they desired to use them temporarily until they could obtain materials or finance the erection of a dwelling. After completion of such structures they are occupied as dwellings and, in most instances, remain in such use to the detriment to the neighborhood. If the erection of such accessory buildings is permitted, there will be no objection to the proper use of same provided they are not used as dwellings. This matter can be controlled by use of occupancy certificates as provided in Uniform Building Code. Respectfully, LAS VEGAS—CLARK COUNTY JOINT PLANNING COMMISSION s/C. G.
