They are proposing to move the common lot line between the two properties to enlarge the <br />area and width of their home site on the Briar lot and reduce the size of the Arbor property. The proposed <br />orientation is shown below; the proposed change moves the defined “front” from Briar to Minnetonka for <br />the Briar lot. The setbacks on the Briar lot are also adjusted. The legal buildable areas are shown in orange <br />on each property. Because the properties are nonconforming with respect to width and area, variances to <br />area and width are required in order to complete the administrative boundary line adjustment <br />(Subdivision Exception). <br /> <br /> <br />Application Summary: The applicant is requesting lot area and lot width variances to <br />facilitate an administrative boundary line adjustment (Subdivision Exception). <br />Staff Recommendation: Planning Department Staff recommends approval.
