� r . ��c� CrrY oF oRONo RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL, s� �,�' No. 6 6 5 9 ��1�SH��`� FINDINGS OF FACT: Al. The analysis contained within staff memos and the exh�ibits attached to the aforesaid memos, all minutes from the above mentioned meetings, and any and all othe�.materials distributed at these meetings�re hereby incorporated by reference. A2. The Property is located within the RR 1B Single Family Rura1 Residential District which requires a minimum lot a�ea of 2.0 acres and a minumum lot width of 200' for construction of a singte family residence. A3. The Property is 0.39 acres in area, being 100 fe�t in defined width, Thc pmperty is considered as legally nonconforniing with regard to lot area and lot width. A4. The Property is located within Storm Wa�ter Overlay District Tier 3 which allows 35% hardcover. The ptoposed resideace construc�ion will result in hardcover on the Froperty of approximately 15.5%,well below the ma�cimum batdcover allowance. A5. The Owners are pl8aning to cons�uct a n�,hOme o��vacant lot. The lot is just under 4/10 acre in the RR 1 B 2-acre zone, e� is a corner lot with the Arbor Stmet frontage defined as front. The Property has sewer available and was assessed for sewer in 1985, ��e�PertY was assumed to be buildable as a combinstion of two lots at that tizne, as evidenced by City Council Resolution No. 1797. The Property vvill be se�tyed by � private well. The pzoposed 2-story home incl�des an att�hed garage and has an overall footprint of approximately 1850 s.f.including deck and porches. '1$e house is proposed as a`lookout'rather than,a walkout due to the relative flatness of the lot,and as proposed will have e defined heiglYt of just over 26 f�eet,meeting the 30' limit. A6. The Ovvners are requesting a number of variances,as the buildable envelope under RR_�S sa'tback s�andards is app�oxi.mately 24 feet in width and 60 feet in lengtl� and would not allow sufficient footprint area for a reasonably sized home. A7. The Property at 100'wide and less than 1/2 acre in area is typical of lots in the Crystal Bay nei8hborhood,the majority of which was platted in 1909 and 1915. Over the past ce�y, individual lots as well as double lots and a few triple or largen�lots have been built on with single family homes. 'The RR_1$ zonin�g of the Crystal Bay neighborhood is a reflectian of the surrounding rural area,and hes nev�been revised to reflect the actual n�ighborhood lot sizes crea�teed 100 years ago, Rez.oning to more closely match the prevailing lot sizes has been discussed in the past but not acted upon. It is noted that Qrono°s %2_acre zone standards would allow for a 0.5 acre lot and 100' width,with setbacks of 30'front and rear, 1 U' sides,and 15' side stree� 2
