Leonard Walz originally owned the property that has been developed as Foxmore Hollow. Leonard retained two lots along Hill Street where there were existing structures. The plat was developed with the existing structures. To allow for an addition to the structure on Lot 6, Leonard Walz is requesting a lot split adding 13 feet to the property. This lot split will actually place both lots in conformance with the Zoning Ordinance as Lot 6 does not meet the minimum depth. The Ordinance allows the Administrator to approve minor subdivisions under certain circumstances. Those circumstances include if the division is less than 10 acres and no more than two lots. In this case the Ordinance applies. The City staff has verified that both lots will be in full conformance with the Ordinance and the utilities will not be affected. BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: ATTACHMENTS: Extract of Ordinance, Survey, Certificate of Compliance REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION: Approve the lot split of Leonard Walz separating 13 feet from Lot 7 Block 1 FOXMORE HOLLOW, attaching the same to Lot 6, Block 1 FOXMORE HOLLOW and authorizing the Administrator to execute the certificate of compliance.
