Little Canada Planning Commission, Mayor and City Council 30 November 1982 Page Two 2. Greenbrier Street. There is a discrepancy between the County half- section maps and the applicant's survey regarding the status of Green- brier Street. The County maps (see Exhibit A) indicate that only 33 feet has been dedicated for Greenbrier Street. The applicant's survey shows a full 66 foot right -of -way width. In discussing this matter with the City Engineer he suggested the possibility that the right -of -way may have been dedicated in the past, but never filed. This issue should be researched and resolved as part of this request. If the street has not been formally dedicated to date, it should be done at this time. 3. Drainage and Utility Easements. As required by Section 1006.040 of the Little Canada Subdivision Ordinance, drainage and utility easements six feet in width should be provided along all lot lines for Parcel A. Ease- ments for the remainder of the property can be acquired concurrently with future platting. 4. Existing Garage. A 16' x 26' garage is located approximately 100 feet south of the existing house. As proposed the garage will not be in- cluded on Parcel A. This violates the Little Canada Zoning Ordinance by leaving an accessory structure as the principal building on Parcel B. Prior to final approval of the request, the City should require that the garage be relocated onto Parcel A or removed altogether. Also relative to garages it should be noted that, in spite of the 90 foot lot width of Parcel A, the location of the house leaves 30 feet to the west lot line. Assuming a 10 foot side yard setback, only 20. feet would remain in which to build an attached garage. Since there is adequate room elsewhere on the site to accommodate a two car garage, the issue is raised simply to make the applicant aware of the potential problem. 5. Future Development. While the request for a simple subdivision is con- sidered acceptable in order to separate the house from the remainder of the property, it is recommended that future subdivision of Parcel B should be done as a formal plat. RECOMMENDATION Based upon the preceding analysis, it is recommended that the lot division be approved contingent upon the above mentioned issues being resolved and subject to review and comment by the City Engineer and City Attorney. cc: Joe Chlebeck Don Carley Tom Sweeney Ed Locke -frank Lentsch
