The 60-Day <br />timeline for review expires on August 30, 2024. <br />3.Background: <br />The applicant owns the properties located at 2285 and 2305 Bayview Place. Both properties are <br />substandard for the LR-1C zoning district. 2305 Bayview Place contains a single-family home, <br />while 2285 Bayside Place is currently vacant. The properties are uniquely configured and both <br />have frontage on Bayside Place and Navarre Lane. The applicant is proposing a lot line adjustment <br />between the two properties to improve the shape of the lots and therefore create more usable <br />building envelopes. The lot line adjustment is an administrative application, however, due to the <br />lots being substandard in size and width, variances are required. The applicant is seeking lot size <br />and width variances for both 2285 and 2305 Bayside Place, as well as a front yard setback <br />variance for 2305 Bayview Place due to the location of the existing home. No additional variances <br />are requested for 2285 Bayview Place, once the vacant lot is built upon, it will need to conform to <br />all required setbacks. <br />4.Public Comment: <br />There have been no public comments submitted. <br />5.Staff Recommendation: <br />Staff is supportive of the lot area, lot width, and front yard setback variances required to support <br />an administrative lot line rearrangement between nonconforming properties. <br />6.Planning Commission Action Requested: <br />Motion to recommend approval of the variances requested for 2285 and 2305 Bayview Place. <br />AGENDA ITEM <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Exhibits <br />Exhibit A - Staff Report <br />Exhibit B - Application <br />Exhibit C - Practical Difficulties Form <br />Exhibit D - Survey <br />8
