Zoning. As mentioned previously, the proposed subdivision is located within an R -1, Single Family Residential District that requires minimum lot sizes of 10,000 square feet for interior lots and 11,000 square feet for corner lots. Lot width minimum for the R -1 District include 75 feet for interior lots and 85 feet for corner lots. As illustrated on the preliminary plan, all lots within the proposed subdivision exceed the R -1 District lot area and width requirements. It should be noted that an existing home, garage, and shed are located on the preliminary plan. The plan, however, separates the home and accessory structures on separate lots. The home is located on Tract B and the accessory structures are located on Tract D. The Zoning Ordinance requires that all accessory buildings be located within the rear yard of the principal structure. It would appear that the proposed subdivision would be in violation of the Zoning Ordinance accessory building requirements. As such, our office would recommend the removal of the garage and shed as part of subdivision approval. Setbacks. The existing house located on Tract B conforms to all R -1 Zoning District setback requirements. Easements. The Subdivision Ordinance requires easements for utilities of at least six (6) feet in width to be provided along all lot lines. The preliminary plan illustrates six (6) foot easements as required. All easements, however, shall be subject to the review of the City Engineer. Grading and Utilities Plan. Grading and utilities plans have not been submitted for the individual lots. Said plans shall be prior to the issuance of a building permit, submitted for review by the City Engineer and Building Official. Park Dedication. Park dedication fees shall be required per Park Commission review and recommendation. The property abuts Gervais Mill Park to the south. 2 Page 19
