Achen explained that Berwyn Christensen had submitted a sketch proposal to subdivide the parcel he lives on into 16 lots, 15 additional buildable lots. He has requested approval of the sketch plan concept so he can proceed to have a prelimi- nary plat drawn up. The land is presently zoned for single family construction. Water and sewer service is available for all lots, and the west side of the property has no street improvements. The existing topography of the land varies greatly and certain areas will require substantial fill. It has been recommended that a proposed grade plan be included with the preliminary plat. Also, due to the topography of the area, individual lot easements should be taken for utility and drainage right -of- ways. A five foot minimum has been recommended along all side lot lines. All lots except the most northeast lot would meet frontage and area requirements. The most northeast lot would have a sub- standard frontage of 82' due to the location of the existing house, which will be 9' from the proposed subdivision line. Mr. Christensen expressed the idea that eventually the existing older home would be removed. If this is the case, the staff recommends that the northeast lot frontage be increased to 85', reducing the setback of the home to 6'.
