(#4) #2592 MIKE HILBELINK AND JOHN VOGT, 350 STUBBS BAY ROAD NORTH - PROPOSED TWO LOT SUBDIVISION, 8:25 p.m. - 8:49 p.m. Mike Hilbelink and John Vogt, Applicants, were present. The Certificate of Mailing and Affidavit of Publication were noted. Weinberger stated the Applicants are proposing a lot split of an existing parcel located at 350 Stubbs Bay Road North. This property is located within the RR-IB zoning district, with a two acre minimum, this site is located on the east side of Stubbs Bay Road, with the land to the west of Stubbs Bay road being located in the five acre minimum lot size district. The Applicants are proposing a front/back lot subdivision which requires greater zoning standards for properties that do not have immediate road access. Lot 2 would not have direct access to a road. This property does have adequate land area to make this subdivision work, with both lots having acreage that exceeds the required minimum standards. Weinberger stated one lot would consist of approximately four acres, with the other lot consisting of approximately 10 acres. Weinberger stated three acres are required for a lot that does not have direct access to a road. Weinberger stated Lot 1 wrill be approximately 2.73 acres dry buildable, with the wetlands not impacting upon the proposed building pads for either lot. The main issue with this application is the access to the two properties, with front/back subdivisions requiring that an outlot be created as an access outlot for a private driveway. Weinberger stated in this case there is an existing driveway, with the outlot being configured in such a way as to allow access to the back lot. This arrangement would require a shared driveway access. Weinberger stated it would be appropriate to increase the width of the outlot an additional 10 feet to the south to accommodate drainage, snow removal and screening from the building site on Lot 1. The submitted site plan indicates the outlet ’s southern boundary follows the existing driveway. PAGE 15
