Toy: Planning Commission Chairman Kelley Orono Planning Commission Members City Administrator Bernhardson From: Michael P. Gaffron, Asst Planning & Zoning Administrator Date: l;tember 14, 1988 Subject: _8 Howard B. Johnson, 1635 & 1675 Concordia Street - b;.bdivision of a Lot Line Rearrangement - Class I - Public Hearing Application - The Trainor House at 1675 Concordia Street encroaches approximately l' over the lot line into the Johnson property at 1635 Concordia Street. The proposed lot line rearrangement maces the Trainor house within its property boundaries. Zoning District - LZ-IC, Single Family 112 Acre Minimum, Sewered List of Exhibits Exhibit A - Exhibit B - Exhibit C - Exhibit D - Discussion - - Application Plat Mal, Property Owners List Proposed Registered Land Survey Howard Johnson of 1635 Concordia Street is in the process of selling his property which consists of approximately 3.9 acres. It came to light as a result of a recent property survey, that the neighboring Trainor residence at 1675 Concordia S'`reet encroaches approximately l' into the Johnson property. This subdivision is merely to provide an additional parcel of 336 s.f. to '_he Trainor property in order that their house at 1675 Concordia Street can be within its property boundaries. Although it is not dimensioned on the survey, tre proposed Tract B to be transferred to Trainor, appears to leave a 5' setback from the Trainor residence to the new property line. In our LR-lC district, normally a 1'J' side setback is required. Staff would suggest that Planning Commission ask applicant to consider granting additional square footage for Tract B so that the normal 10' iide setback can be accomtlished. The current proposal increases the Trainor property to 0.434 acre in area. Staff Rtco endation - Although it would appear that granting of additional area within Tract B to accomplish the 10' side setback standard would be a logical goal in this type of lot line rearrangement, applicant may have specific reasons why such an arrangement is not proposed. Regardless, the proposed lot line rearrangement, which places the Trainor house within its own property boundaries is a positive application and staff would recommend approval.
