To: Planning Commission From: Michael P. Gaffron, Assistant Zoning Administrator Date: May 14, 1985 Subject: #922 Van Eeckhout Building Corporation, 2020-2080 Salem Court - Lot Line Rearrangement Application - Trade equal areas in 2 lots to create a better building site. Zoning District - RR-lB Lot 1 Lot 2 Existing Lot Area: 2.0 Acres 2.0 Acres Proposed Lot Area: 2.0 Acres 2.0 Acres t of Exhibits Exhibit A - Application Exhibit B - Letter of Submittal and Legal description Exhibit C - Property Owners List Exhibit D - Plat Map Exhibit E - Survey With Proposal Exhibit F - Staff Sketch - Review of Drainfield Sites, Building Envelope, Drainage Exhibit G - Division/Combination Format Applicant requests a lot line rearrangement by trading equal areas in order to create a more attractive building site fronting on Salem Court. Please review Exhibits E and F. An existing house on Lot 2 will meet all required setbacks from the proposed lot line. The well and septic system for Lot 2 are not affected by the lot line rearrangement. Lot 1 will gain frontage on Salem Court, which will allow a house placement facing the road, uniform with the remainder of the neighborhood. The sites previously tested for the septic system occur in the northern portion of the lot. Although a portion of the test holes are just over the proposed boundary line, a review of the boring and perc test logs indicate that the soils are fairly uniform throughout, and with the existing fairly level topography, there should be no problem in shifting the drainfield sites slightly to the south. These will be mound systems due to a seasonal high water table. No further soil testing is required. A footing drainfield tile currently extends from the house on Lot 2 to the northeastern boundary of Lot 1, discharging to the road ditch. A drainage easement should be granted by Lot 1 in favor of Lot 2. There are no wetlands on either property. In the metes and bounds survey, the applicant should show the four parcels A, B, C, and D as shown in Exhibit G. Parcels A and B will be combined and C and D will be combined. (If this is torrens property, it will have to be platted, creating new Lots 1 and 2. The County will not accept long legal descriptions on torrens property.) Staff recommends approval of the proposed lot line arrangement. rU �^* ►C. ri Nrrt Tt� �eaolC �/�Iy+'fU'�
