MEMORANDUM
TO: Frederick County Board of Supervisors
FROM: Kayla Peloquin, Planner
SUBJECT: Ordinance Amendment—Churches and Places of Worship&Fraternal Lodges/Civic
Clubs/Social Centers
DATE: June 24, 2024
Proposal:
This is a proposal to amend the term"Church"to"Churches and Places of Worship"in every instance
where"Church" is used.No changes are proposed to the definition.
This proposal also amends the RA (Rural Areas) Zoning District "Conditional uses" section (§165-
401.03) to add "Nationally chartered fraternal lodges or civic clubs, social centers and their related
club facilities" as a conditional use. This proposal relocates the additional regulations for the use from
the RP (Residential Performance) Zoning District conditional uses list (§165-402.03) to a new
subsection in the Additional Regulations for Specific Uses section (§165-204). No changes are
proposed to the existing additional regulations, which are being moved to make the ordinance more
consistent so that all additional regulations would be found in §165-204. This ordinance amendment
was initiated by staff.
Current Zoning Ordinance Standard:
The Zoning Ordinance currently uses the term"Church" several times throughout the ordinance, and
the definition is "Buildings or structures primarily intended for the conduct of religious services and
associated accessory uses." Given this broad definition, updating the terminology from "Church" to
"Churches and Places of Worship"helps meet the intent of the definition.
The current Zoning Ordinance does not list nationally chartered fraternal lodges or civic clubs, social
centers, and their related club facilities as a permitted or conditional use in the RA Zoning District.
Many of these facilities currently exist in the RA Zoning District and are likely accessory to a separate
primary use or predate the Zoning Ordinance. The RP Zoning District allows nationally chartered
fraternal lodges or civic clubs, social centers and their related club facilities as a conditional use.
Summary& Reauested Action:
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on June 5, 2024, and recommended adoption.
Following a public hearing, staff is seeking a decision by the Board of Supervisors on this ordinance
amendment.

§165-201.02 Setback requirements.
A.No structure shall be placed in the front, side or rear yard setback areas specified by this chapter.
B. The setback for structures is measured from the lot lines of the lots containing the structure.When a lot
is adjacent to a road or street right-of-way,the setback shall be measured from the boundary of the right-
of-way. Front yard setbacks shall be required wherever a lot abuts a road or street right-of-way.Where a
lot abuts a public street or road with a right-of-way width less than would normally be required to create
such a road, additional front setback distances may be required to allow for expansion or improvement of
that road. In addition,when improvement plans have been adopted for a road or street by the County,
additional front setback distances shall be required to allow for the planned road improvement. The
additional front setback distances provided on any lot shall be equal to 1/2 of the additional right-of-way
width needed to meet the normally required right-of-way width or planned right-of-way width.
C. Exceptions to front yard setbacks.Where the average front yard setback distance for adjacent lots is
less than the minimum required front yard,the Zoning Administrator may allow a front yard setback
distance less than normally required on the lot to be developed. In such cases,the front setback distance

shall be deemed to be the shortest side with frontage on the street or road. The rear boundary,with a
required rear yard setback, shall be deemed to be opposite from the front side.All other sides not abutting
a street shall be deemed to be side boundaries. The Zoning Administrator may determine that a side other
than the shortest is the front in order to ensure that the placement of the setback yards conforms with the
placement of structures on surrounding lots. In all cases, a front and rear yard shall be designated.
E.Accessory uses. Side and rear yard setback distances may be established separately by the district
regulations for accessory uses. However, in no case shall the accessory use be placed within the front
setback yard required for the primary use on the lot.
