Any parcel of land upon which a single family residence was constructed prior to June 25, 1980 shall maintain a minimum five (5) foot interior side yard setback for the principal building, future attached additions to the building, and from any existing or newly created lot lines. In all cases, side yards abutting a public right - of -way shall maintain a thirty (30) foot setback for all buildings. As shown on the submitted certificate of survey, the home in question exhibits a west side yard setback of 5.5 feet. Thus, the setback that previously did not meet the minimum requirement of the ordinance now satisfies such requirements. All proposed lots have been found to meet the minimum area and width requirements of the R -1 zoning district. Additionally, the existing residence meets not only the applicable side yard setback requirements but front and rear yard setback requirements as well. Utility easements have not been shown on the certificate of survey. As a condition of subdivision approval, drainage and utility easements should be illustrated on the survey. The applicant will be required to pay a per lot cash contribution (in lieu of land dedication) for park for the two newly created lots as determined by the Parks and Recreation Commission and approved by City Council. RECOMMENDATION Based on the preceding review, our office recommends approval of the proposed lot split subject to the following conditions 1. The certificate of survey be modified to illustrate drainage and utility easements. 2. The applicant pay a cash contribution (in lieu of land dedication) for park for the newly created lot as determined by the Parks Commission and approved by City Council. 3.
