• Ordinance No. 07-14, Rezoning from R, Rural to R-1, Single Family Residential • Resolution No. 14-66, Variances • Resolution No. 14-67, Preliminary Plat The Planning & Zoning Board reviewed and recommended approval of the final plat at the September 10, 2014 meeting. ANALYSIS Subdivision Ordinance Conformity with the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code The final plat has been reviewed for compliance with the comprehensive plan, zoning and subdivision ordinance. The subdivision is not considered premature, is consistent with the comprehensive plan for residential development and meets the performance standards of the subdivision and zoning ordinance with the approved minor variances. The final plat is also consistent with the preliminary plat. Blocks and Lots The final plat creates 1 block with 4 lots. Lot 4, Block 1 will have an existing home which will remain. Lots 1, 2 and 3 will be developed with single family homes. The lots will be 132 feet in depth. The minimum lot depth in an R-1 Single Family Residential District is 135 feet. When Mar Don Acres was platted, the lots were 294 feet deep. The required 30 foot roadway easement dedication on the north for Arlo Lane reduces the lot depth to 264 feet. Subdividing this in half creates 132 foot deep lots. Resolution No. 14-66 approved the necessary variances. Streets and Alleys Lois Lane and Arlo Lane are minor collector roads and are capable of handling one (1) and two (2) additional single family homes, respectively. Easements Standard drainage and utility easements are shown around the interior perimeter of the four lots. The final plat shall be revised to include an easement around the stormwater drainage areas proposed in the rear yards. Public Land Dedication The City will require payment in lieu of land dedication. Since this is an existing lot with one (1) home, park dedication fees will be required for the three (3) newly created lots. 2
