Jennifer Prochazka Staff Planner Presentation Notes fek�s The item before you is a variancetto the minimum lot depth in an R-1 , P5"1"- ' (A-S Single Family zoning district. The subject prepeityis located at 617 -- Columbus Street&is-vari-arrce-wit atfiow thie proper y lolegaHy s . Section 5.2 of the Unified Development Ordinance sets out the minimum lot dimensions for residential zoning districts. Lots in R- �r, 1 must be a minimum of 50 feet in width and 100 feet in depth. The subject properties were originally platted as 3 lots in the Prairie View Heights Subdivision. In 1983, a plat was recorded that allowed these three lots to combine into two lots. The combined lots have , frontage of 150 feet, and a depth of 85 feet. The property owner is seeking to subdivide the property back to its original condition. A plat may not be approved without a 15 foot variance to the minimum lot depth because all lots platted in the city must comply with all applicable zoning district lot size and dimensions. Lc;-).S,cler .tt, hob O:\group\deve_ser\stfrpt\zngstfrpt\honda.doc Currently Lot B has an existing home which would be demolished prior to further development of the property. The lot is relatively flat with some vegetation, and does not lie within a floodplain. All of the lots on Block 2 and 3 are lots with 85 foot depth and were platted prior to our current R-1 standards, and staff and the applicant recognize that there is no opportunity to aquire additional land to -- meet the minimum depth without creating more non-conforming lots 00 behind the subject lots. Staff recommends approval of this request. The project manager for this case received one inquiry about this hearing, but did not express opposition to the variance. Ordinance Intent: The intent of lot dimension requirements usually allow for some degree of control over population density. These standards are typically justified on the basis of the protection of property values. The Board must determine if the intent of the ordinance is met by the request and should ensure that the request is reasonable based on the special conditions and hardships. Number of Property Owners Notified: 29 Responses Received: I have received one inquiry phone call. The caller was not concerned with the variance request.
