( #9) #2355 SUSAN & DOUGLAS VAN MOORLEHEM & KEN TURNHAM, 4490 WATERTOWN ROAD - PRELIMINARY PLAT APPROVAL - RESOLUTION NO. 4094 Mrs. Van Moorlehem was present. Gaffron reported that this request for preliminary plat approval involved one tax parcel with three separate physical areas divided by Watertown Road and McCulley Road. The area has been reduced in area by road needs. The County has taken approximately 2 acres of right -of -way. As part of the McCulley Road construction in 1980, the City made an agreement to allow the 8 acre parcel to be split into two 4 -acre parcels. With the recent 2 -acre right -of -way acquisition by the County, that lot is now only 6 acres. It would be best to leave this as one lot. Block 1 has an existing house with lot width just under the 300' requirement. The Planning Commission recommend that a lot area variance be granted if the northerly lot has less than 5 acres of dry buildable land. Planning Commission and staff agree that it doesn't make sense to take land from across the County Road to 14 0
