Zoning District - RR-lB Lot 1 Lot 2 Existing Lot Area: 2.0 Acres Proposed Lot Area: 2.0 Acres 2.0 Acres 2.0 Acres List of Exhibits Exhibit A - Application Exhibit B - Letter of Submittal and Legal description Exhibit C - Property Owners List Exhibit D - Plat Map Exhibit E - Survey With Proposal Exhibit F - Staff Sketch - Review of Drair.tield Sites, Building Envelope, Drainage Exhibit G - Division/Combination Format Applicaiit requests a lot line rearrangement by trading equal areas in order to create a more attractive building site fronting on Salem Court. Please review Exhibits E and F. An existing house on Lot 2 will meet all required setbacks from the proposed lot line. The well and septic system for Lot 2 are not affected by the lot line rearrangement. Lot 1 will gain frontage on Salem Court, which will all ow a house placement facing the road, uniform with the remainder of the neighborhood. The sites previously tested for the septic system occur in the northern portion of the lot. Although a portion of the test holes are just over the proposed boundary line, a review of the boring and perc test logs indicate that the soils are fairly uniform throughout, and with the existing fairly level topography, there should be no [problem in sliifting the drainfield sites sliglitly to the south. These will be mound systems due to a seasonal high water table. No further soil testing is required. A footing drainfield tile currently extends from the house on Lot 2 to the northeastern boundary of Lot 1, discharging to the road ditch. A drainage easement should be granted by Lot 1 in favor of Lot 2. There are no wetlands on either property. In the metes and bounds survey, the apf)licant should show the four parcels A, B, C, and D an shown in Exhibit G. Parcels A and B wi 1 1 be combined and C and D wi 1 1 be combined. (If this is torrens property, it will have to be platted, creating new Lots 1 and 2. The County will not accept long legal descri{)tions on torrens p>roperty.)
