Mabusth, building & Zoning Administra br 81' <br />DATE: <br />July <br />5, <br />1985 <br />CITY OF OR ON® <br />SUBJECT: <br />#930 <br />Jim <br />Shaver, 1.080 Ferndale West <br />- Variance <br />Zoning District - LR-lA <br />Pertinent Ordinances - Section 10.21, Subdivision 2 - Lakeshore <br />Hardcover, Section 10.23 Subdivision 6B rear <br />setback, Section 10.55, Subdivision 15(A)(2) <br />- Minimum Lot Area Requirements <br />List of Exhibits <br />Exhibit <br />A - <br />Application <br />Exhibit <br />B - <br />Property Owners List <br />Exhibit <br />C <br />- Plat Map <br />Exhibit <br />D <br />- Applicant's hardcover review <br />Exhibit <br />E <br />- Resolution #1181 <br />Exhibit <br />F <br />- Survey 4-4-85 <br />Exhibit <br />G <br />- Bagley Letter 6-13-85 <br />Exhibit <br />H <br />- Site Plan <br />Exhibit <br />I <br />- Resolution <br />Comments concerning hardcover facts reviewed by applicant (Section <br />10.21, Subdivision 2). <br />The applicant has included only the area of dry buildable for hardcover <br />credit. Section 10.21, Subdivision 2, does not exclude wetlands <br />areas in determination of allowed hardcover. If you merely <br />considered an allowance of 25% for the total lot area at 184,000 square <br />feet, the property would receive hardcover credit of 47,000 square <br />feet. The majority of the drainage from the development of the lot <br />will drain to the wetlands not the lake. The wetlands also serves as a <br />retention basin for much of the surrounding development. The severe <br />limitations placed upon the dry buildable portions of this property <br />within tY "ined building envelope will limit development. <br />Comments _rning minimum lot area requirements (Section 10.55, <br />Subdivision 15 A, 2) <br />This section states that under no condition shall a property be <br />considered a buildable lot if it falls under 1/2 acre of dry contiguous <br />lands. The property contains 20,700 square feet not 21,780 square <br />feet as the ordinance would require. In 1980, staff drafted <br />resolution 41181 (See Exhibit E) providing sanitary sewer to the <br />subject property, incorrectly f inding the property to contain .6 acres <br />of dry contiguous land instead of .49 acres. Staff's findings were <br />made from mere visual observations of the site. It has been only in <br />recent months after a survey had been made of the building envelope did <br />
