A. Street dedication may be waived by the city engineer under any one of the following conditions:

  2. When a building permit is issued for the remodeling or reconstruction of a building in any zone, and the value of such remodeling or reconstruction as determined by the building official does not exceed ten percent of the assessed value of such building as shown on the latest adopted county assessor's tax roll;

  3. When a building permit is issued in any zone for the purpose of demolition of a structure;

  4. When a building permit is issued in any zone for the construction of a wall or fence as long as such wall or fence is not constructed within the existing right-of-way or future right-of-way as identified in the city's general plan;

  5. When a building permit is issued for the construction of accessory dwelling units, garages, carports, storage buildings, patio covers, swimming pools, and similar structures accessory to a single-family residence; and

  6. Where dedication of the standard right-of-way is impractical as determined by the city engineer.
