Motion. by Councilman Letourneau.' and seconded by Councilman Marks. to approve the lot size variances .to develop Lots 1 , 2 and 3 -of the pro- posed- platting of Browns First Addition as proposed, finding as did the Planning in Commission that: (.1), Each of the three parcels of. property involved is long and narrow. • By this subdivision process the two new, lo.ts that-would be -created would be conforming. The existing three parcels would .be short- ended. However, that would not. make them non-conforming. They are non-conforming presently because of their width. This width would not change because of the subdivision.
