insure that this easement providing access to Silver Lake is protected. The other caller simply wanted more information about the proposed subdivision. Analysis: Mr.Paul Hayes called Staff for information regarding the process to do a lot combination. He indicated that the property owner at 4024 Silver Lake Terrace is willing to sell Mr. Hayes a portion of his lot. Staff advised Mr. Hayes of the Lot Subdivision process and that the resultant lots are required by City Ordinance to conform to minimum interior lot square footages. Mr. Hayes submitted site maps showing the proposed subdivisions for Staff review. Staff verified that the proposed lot splits did not cause the whole lot to be out of confomnance with lot size regulations of the City's Zoning Code. Each lot meets the minimum lot size of 9,000 SF. Currently,Lot 3 is 22,948 SF and Lot 4 is 14,709 SF. The proposed square footage of Lot 3 is 20,223 and the proposed square footage of Lot 4 is 17,434. According the calculations of the certified land surveyor,the 35% lot coverage requirement is also adhered to by both properties,currently and with the proposed lot subdivisions. The minimum side yard and rear yard setbacks for each lot are also maintained. An R 1A lot requires a minimum side yard width of five (5) feet and a minimum combination of the two (2) side yards of fifteen (15) feet. The rear yard of any lot abutting the lake must be at least 75 feet from the natural high water elevation of the lake. The rear yard of any lot not abutting the lake must be at least 20% of the depth of the entire lot but in no case less than 25 feet. Lot 3 owned by Dr. Good does abut the Lake and has a rear yard of 80.2 feet and Lot 4 owned by Mr.Hayes does not abut the Lake and has a rear yard of 35.18 feet. Side yards for both properties are well above the required footage. Lot 4 conforms to the front yard setback with 36.14 feet;Lot 3 does not conform to the 30- foot front yard setback requirement. The original survey does show a front yard setback of 25 feet,still shy of the required setback of 30 feet that was adopted by the City in 1976. The structure was built in 1961. Either one of these would make the front yard setback for 4024 Silver Lake Ten-ace grandfathered in. Both lots will conform to the rear yard setbacks and the side yard setbacks if the lot combinations are approved. Action: Resolution for Recommendation of Approval/Denial of the proposed Lot Splits and Combinations to the City Council. The Planning Commission can hold the public hearings for both lots at the same time. Communications: Received two phone calls from residents.
