Zoning File #955 <br />September 11, 1985 <br />Page 2 <br />FINDINGS <br />1. The guest house parcel contains 2.2 acres of dry buiidabic land, <br />meeting the LR-IA 2-acre minimum lot area requirement. The remainder of <br />the non-combined parcels contains 6.9 acres of dry buildable land and <br />includes the main house. The iot width at the building site is somewhat <br />less than the required 200'. <br />2. The guest hosue is proposed in a Jocation within the 2.2 acre parcel <br />which meets all setback requirements within that parcel, and which will <br />maintain in excess of the minimum setback required (60') from the adjacent <br />structure. <br />3. Access to the guest house is via the existing driveway serving the main <br />house. <br />CONDITIONS <br />1. The guest house shall have a separate well and septic system. <br />2. Applicant is placed on notice that if P.I.D. #10-117-23 14 0002 (the <br />2.2 acre parcel with guest house) is ever sold off separately from the main <br />property, the guest house shaJi at that time be considered the primary <br />residence for that parcel, and construction of a second dwelling on that <br />parcel will require a further conditional use permit review. <br />3. Applicant is placed on notice that Zoning Code § 10.03, Subdivision 6 <br />(C) prohibits the sale or transfer of any parcel or combination of adjacent <br />parcels which singly or in combination are non-conformina in area or width; <br />or which sale or transfer makes the retained property or properties non- <br />conforming; without Council approval. <br />4. Applicant is further placed on notice, that based on the survey sub­ <br />mitted with the application, the existing main house at one point appears <br />to be only 23' from the side iot line where a 30' side setback is required, <br />hence sale of the guest house parcel would cause the main house parcel to <br />be non-conforming, in vie ation of §10.03, Subdivision 6(C). A simple lot <br />line rearrangement would remedy this potential future problem. Also, the <br />survey indicates that the iot lines could be arranged so that while main­ <br />taining a 30' setback to the existing house, the iot width of the guest <br />house parcel could be increased to approximately 195', nearly meeting the <br />required iot width but still requiring a slight variance. <br />5. Applicant is further placed on notice that if the guest house parcel <br />was sold off separately, that an access easement would be required over the <br />existing driveway on the main house property. <br />6. The applicant is advised to check on the relative property tax benefits <br />of combining or not combining the 9 properties in held in common.
