1 1 COUNCIL MEETING AUGUST 24, 1992 property. Water service is not available at this time. Staff is recommending that all lots be served with sanitary sewer and that the owner sign an agreement not to object to water service when it becomes available. It is also recommended that Mr. MacNeil provide a 10 foot utility /drainage easement on the side and rear property lines. The lot width and area requirements would be met in this proposed subdivision but lot depth would be deficient and require a variance of 10 feet in depth for each lot. The findings of fact for the variances are: 1. The most reasonable use of this property would be served by allowing the variance for 10 feet in lot depth. 2. The property in question is unique as it is a corner lot of record, 125.94 feet by 299.3 feet. 3. The hardship in this case is not economic in that the creation of three building sites is the most reasonable use of the property. 4. No special privilege will be conferred on the applicant by granting this variance and the property immediately to the east has previously been divided in the same manner. 5. The proposed request will not unreasonably diminish or impair established property vales within the neighborhood and may, in fact, enhance the area by eliminating a vacant parcel of property 6. The proposed action will be in keeping with the intent and spirit of the ordinance by allowing the maximum use of the property. The Planning and Zoning Board has recommended approval of the request with the following conditions: a. A survey be provided indicating exact dimensions of lots. b. An agreement be signed by the property owner indicating no objections to the extension of water service when and if it becomes available. c. The newly created lots be provided with sewer service as recommended by the City Engineer. PAGE 4 203
