They include; <br />THsa n-wg-H to create a "front lot" and "back lot" in relation to the road. <br />The back lot (with your existing house) would have to meet 150% of the <br />S area and width standards of the zoning district under codes adopted by <br />the City about two years ago. <br />In a new subdivision, the City is unlikely to grant let area variances, <br />having done so for a standard residential plat on only two occasions smee <br />1975, both of which were very unique circumstances. <br />. If lot area variances were granted, and assuming a 20* access c^dor <br />platted to the back lot. your westerly lot would ^ ^ . <br />Loroximately 4,000 - 5,000 s.f. of hardcover mcludmg its sh^e of a <br />shLed access^driveway. This might be a limiting factor for development <br />of a new residence on that lot, and is unlikely to be granted a vanance for <br />more hardcover, especially for new construction. Hardcover imght also <br />be an issue if you were to remove your existing house and construct a new <br />one in its plaL. After excluding the first 75 ’ back from the lake, ttus <br />easterly lo^t would be allowed a relatively small square footage of <br />hardcover. <br />Lot line rearrangement (with or without existing house remaining). <br />The purpose of this would be to simply move a lot line to place your existmg <br />house Nothin a single tax parcel, leaving the remaining property m a second t^ <br />narcel for construchon of a residence. Your basis for this request would rely on <br />die fact that the three parcels have remained separate yet owned ^d <br />might at any time be sold individually to 3 separate buyers. You could also argu <br />that the property has sewer available in the street. <br />The Citv’s argument against such a proposal would include the <br />sewer unit was assessed; that the house and its appunenant septic ™ ^ <br />made use of all three parcels as one; that Zoning Code <br />(A) P) regarding lots of record, allows use of your second and third parcels i <br />fLifv dwemno purposes only if they are one acre in size and have an <br />average widdi of lOo" standards which your properties ’ <br />and therefore even if sold separately would not be granted bu.ldrag permits.
