Keis opened the Public Hearing to consider an application for Property Division and Lot Combination subdividing 15 feet from the property at 3100 LaBore Road and combining it with 3088 LaBore Road. The City Planner reported that the property division and lot combination shifts a lot line slightly north resulting in more land for 3088 LaBore Road. He indicated that currently 3100 LaBore Road is 126 feet wide and 3088 LaBore Road is 52 feet side. The currently is a side yard setback non -conformity at 3088 LaBore Road as well as a lot width non -conformity at the building line. The addition of the 15 feet to 3088 LaBore Road will correct these non -conformities. The Planner noted that even with the shift of the lot line, the zoning requirements for 3100 LaBore Road will remain in compliance. The Planner noted that the applicants will have to have the property surveyed in order to finalize the property transfer. He indicated that City staff and the Planning Commission recommend approval of the Property Division/Combination subject to the lot split and combination being recorded concurrently at Ramsey County. Keis noted that with the addition of the 15 feet to 3088 LaBore Road, the lots will only be 67 feet wide when the Code requirement is a minimum of 75 feet. The Planner pointed out the shape of the lot widens out similar to a cul-de-sac lot. The lot will have a minimum of 75 feet in width at the building line. Montour felt that the property division/combination was a win/win situation noting that it brings the property at 3088 LaBore Road into compliance with the Code. There was no one from the general public present wishing to comment on this matter. 2
