As VO have previously noted to you, the combination of Lota 55, 56, and 57 constitutes the 601 of 1 acre that ia required for a building site in the LR-IB zoning district. With Lots 55 and 56 only, the property containing the existing residence at 4196 North Shore Drive is substandard in area. You have also indicated an intent to create a second building site*on the remaining lots, to the rear of the pond. Your procedural options appear to be as follovsi A) Convey Lot 57 to the Olsons. Apply for a lot area variance for the remaining lots 58 through 61. You will have to provide a 2' contour topographical survey of the property in order for the City Engineer to verify the extent of th designated wetland on the property if you wish to apply for the lot area variance; B) Convey Parcels 57 through 61 to the Olsons for combination with their Lots 55 and 56, to create one large lot with the existing house: • CtLOINCa ZONtNC - 4TJ 7M7 ASSESSING
