E. A n a l „y_s_ i s.
Staff would like further information on the uses
proposed. Since this is outside the City, there is no
zoning authority. For plats in this area, a 50 foot
minimum lot frontage is required. For commercial uses,
a 100 foot minimum is required. The pipe -stem will
require a waiver. The Bill of Assurance should also
guarantee common use relationships of the parking and
drives since common use is apparent.
F. Staff Recommendation
Approval as filed.
SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW:
The Applicant explained that the intent was to store old MAC
cars in the building on Lot 2.
Staff explained that one issue to be discussed involved
whether there would be a 60 foot lot minimum frontage as is
required on lots outside the City, or 100 foot lot minimum
frontage is as required on commercial lots. The Applicant
has only 50 feet of frontage on Lot 2, so a waiver is
required for this and the length of the pipe -stem. The
Applicant was asked to correct his contours on the plat and
was informed that sewer was not available.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION:
