We (Brett and Amanda Larson and daughters Olivia and Isla) recently began building <br />our home at 2480 Carman Street. Our goal is to subdivide the lot to allow for a home on <br />the portion of the property north of the lagoon. The previous owner combined the northern <br />and southern in an effort to reduce property taxes. We are proposing a return to the <br />previous status. <br /> <br />The city property currenty (lagoon) currently splits the property into two parcels in an <br />unnatural way. The northern parcel serves no purpose or use relative to the southern parcel <br />and subdividing the property would not be contrary to the City’s Comprehensive Plan. <br /> <br />The surrounding single family properties have substantially less square footage than <br />the proposed subdivision or have either a commercial venture or multiple housing units. <br />Granting the subdivision would be consistent with the existing comprehensive plan or <br />general land use plan and is consistent with the projected 2030 land uses and densities for <br />individual neighborhoods, specifically between Carman Street and County Road 15. See e.g., <br />2030 Future Land Use Categories (Low Density Residential-0.5-2 units per acre.). <br /> <br />We understand that our neighbor to the west has made a similar rqeuest and we have <br />had disucssions about hsaring an ingress/egress into the two lots. We are also open to <br />accomplishign this goal through a rezoning or variance if necessary.
