1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />DESIGN REVIEW BOARD AUGUST 14, 1991 <br />would be 165 feet wide and the other would be 167 feet wide. The <br />problem is that one of the parcels will be short 15 feet of the <br />required on a road frontage, and the other will be 13 feet short. <br />Their home is located so that it will eventually face 66th Street. <br />John Bergeson asked Mrs. Lowell is they intended to sell the second <br />lot. Mrs. Lowell said yes, and the potential buyer would have to <br />be aware that the house must be strategically located should <br />utilities go through and the land was subdivided. <br />John Miller said that both the short and long term solution to this <br />problem would be to approve a minor subdivision resulting in two <br />parcels of property. This would meet the Lowells short term needs <br />and create lots to sell in the future. Each piece would be a <br />double sided lot and in the long term when sewer becomes available <br />all will work out. This proposal differs slightly from the <br />enclosed survey drawing. Approval of the variance would create a <br />flag lot - the larger of the parcels. The front of the lot is not <br />on a city street. <br />John Bergeson asked if someone would buy a lot with less than 2 1/2 <br />acres, would they need a variance to build. John Miller stated <br />that if current requirements were met the answer would be no. <br />Al Robinson asked Mrs. Lowell if she was aware that approval of <br />this variance meant she would have to have another survey. Mrs. <br />Lowell said she was aware of that. <br />John Bergeson asked if the distance from existing house to the new <br />lot meets the requirement of the side lot by shrinking it to 32 <br />feet. <br />Mrs. Lowell asked if this division of the two lots will leave <br />enough to take some footage from each lot if the other lot is to be <br />divided and come off of 66th Avenue. <br />Fred Chase asked if Parcel A is enlarged, if the future road would <br />take almost all of the footage from this parcel would it make for <br />tough negotiation later. <br />Mrs. Lowell said that is why the surveyor divided the lots where he <br />did. <br />Dan Boxrud said the house is in an ideal setting, but how the lot <br />would subdivide in the future in not obvious, the road does not <br />need to be the driving force here. <br />2 <br />
