Date Application Received: PropeM Address: Zoning District: 60 -Day Expires: Waiver Letter Required: Future Action: April 21, 2009 4017 Silver Lake Road R-1 June 22, 2009 N/A Yes Date Sent; Council Action to approve proposed lot split. No Background: Ms Susan Lindberg inherited property at 4017 Silver Lake Road and contacted Staff looking for information about applying for a lot split of this property. Ms. Lindberg has had the property on the market for sale and the marketing of this property has produced an interested buyer for the back portion of the current lot. A recent survey of the lot as it currently exists shows it to be an interior lot of 21,214 square feet or .487 acres. Of this 21,214 square feet, 99 square feet is reserved as a right -of way for Silver Lake Road and 1,117 square feet that was originally intended as an easement for an alley that was never used. The resultant lots, if the lot split application is approved, would have Parcel A with 11,166 square feet, including the alley easement and Parcel B with 10,048 square feet. The minimum interior lot size for this zoning district is 9,000 square feet. Both parcels would also conform to the lot width minimum of 75 feet; the lot is 79.82 wide at the front and the back. Parcel A will retain the address of 4017 Silver Lake Road and Parcel B will be 4016 Penrod Lane. The buyer proposes to build a single family structure once he closes on the purchase of Parcel B. Staff also contacted the City attorney to find out if it was necessary for the City to vacate the alley easement. The City Attorney indicated that since it is wholly contained within the lot and of no use, it is not requited to be vacated. Action: The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this matter. There was no one in the audience that spoke out against the proposed lot split and staff received no calls in opposition to this application. The Planning Commission unanimously voted to recommend approval of the proposed lot split to the City Council.
