This is because <br />Lots 55* 56* and 57 exist as one combined parcel for tax purposes* and to <br />separate them requires subdivision approval by the City Council. <br />As we have previously noted to you* the conbination of Lots 55* 56* <br />and 57 constitutes the 801 of 1 acre that is required for a building site <br />in the LR-IB zoning district. With Lots 55 and 56 only* the property <br />containing the existing residence at 4196 North Shore Drive is substandard <br />in area. <br />You have also indicated an intent to create a second building site‘on <br />the remaining lots* to the rear of the pond. <br />Your procedural options appear to be as follows: <br />A) Convey Lot 57 to the Olsons. Apply for a lot area variance for <br />the remaining lots 58 through 61. You will have to provide a 2* <br />contour topographical survey of the property in order for the City <br />Engineer to verify the extent of the designated wetland on the <br />property if you wish to apply for the lot area variance: <br />B) Convey Parcels 57 through 61 to the Olsons for combination with <br />their Lota 55 and 56* to create one large lot with the existing house: <br />BUtLtHNCa ZaNtNC > 47^f]i7 <br />ASSCSSINC <br />ADMiNirniAnoN a fwanoi - omui nmUCWO«KS>47>-7159
