Item No. 7 - Continued
STAFF ANALYSIS:
This request is made in the form many previous building line
issues were filed, i.e., a cover letter and drawing to
illustrate the change. If granted, the applicants would
file an amended plat to carry out the changes.
The original design scheme on these lots implied single lot
development. This plan offers common drives and parking
between pairs of lots. The structures shown on Lots 6 and 7
do not appear to be restricted to the degree that 5' cannot
be gained simply by moving the building.
As to the easement reduction on the rear of Lots 6 and 7, we
see no real need for this unless the parking area is not
permitted to encroach by the utilities.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The staff view is that, unless significant design or terrain
constraints can be offered as justification, we cannot
support the request.
PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
Withdrawn with no comments. (No vote of Commission
required. File to be held until further communication from
owner.)
