This application was reviewed as Zoning File No. 783 . <br /> 2. The property is located in the LR-1B Single Family <br /> Lakeshore Residential Zoning District. <br /> 3. The Planning Commission reviewed this application �at <br /> their July 16, 1984 meeting and recommended conceptual <br /> approval of the lot area and lot width variances subject to <br /> the successful vacation of portion of the adjacent Park <br /> Avenue, noting that the additional land gained by the <br /> applicant will increase the lot area to 18,365 square feet <br /> or 0.42 acres, which area is consistent with the existing <br /> neighboring building sites, and finding that no other land <br /> is available for the applicant to acquire. <br /> 4. Applicant has made a good faith effort to acquire <br /> • . additional property. <br /> 5. The highest and best use of the property appears to be <br /> the construction of a home; the property would likely revert <br /> to tax deliquency status if not allowed as a building site. <br /> i 6. The proposal is consistent with the current pattern of <br /> development in the neighborhood. '=�` <br />
