I TO;Jeanne A. Mabusth FROM:Alan P. Olson DATE:March 11, 1981 SUBJECT: #568 Navarre Cove Subdivision/PRD This proposal dates way back to the original Kelley Avenue subdivision application. Note the Planning Coiuinission minutes of April 10, 1976, where zero lot line duplexes were discussed. The original subdivision #104 created lot #1 with 3,2 acres and one existing, non-conforming duplex. Thereafter, in October 1977, Planning Commission and Council approved Conditional Use Permits for both PRD (3 buildings on the same lot) and duplex credit (2 units in each building). The net density was 6 units on 3.2 acres. In 1979, Subdivision #448 was approved v;here in each separate duplex building was located on a separate lot. Now the applicant wants to combine the 2 north lots into one outlot and create a zero lot line PRD so that each dwelling unit is on a distinct property. Each unit would own 1/4 undivided interest in the common outlot. Lot 3 of Navarre Cove with the non-conforming duplex is not included. As with any non-conforming use, if this duplex is ever destroyed, it can only be replaced with one single family home meeting all current setbacks. This proposal does not increase the number of dwelling units nor does it prevent rental of any unit. It does allow con dominium ownership. In one way, it improves zoning compliance over the status quo, to wit: The 1979 subdivision created a lot containing a duplex, which lot did not abut the commercial zone. By recombination into Outlot A, owned in part by the owners of units 3 and 4, that duplex again more closely fits the standards contained in the duplex credit section. Ownership option is the only issue in this proposal. Density was decided in 1977 when the original Conditional Use Permits were issued. The homeowner's agreement and chain-of-title can control joint use of the parking and open space, and can limit development to the attached dwellings as exist today.
