STAFF REPORT: This is a request by the applicant, Mr. James Cone, to waive the requirement for a 40' buffer on the east side of Lot 11. The request is based on the fact that: 1. Plans for the building to be placed 15' from the adjoining property have already been made; 2. The single family property on this side is the only remaining residential property in the area and will inevitably be rezoned; 3. The office building on the east side of the property has been approved and constructed with a 10' side yard; 4. Single family property, owner is requesting a rezoning of this property to commercial and the "R-2" property will be sold contingent upon this rezoning. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approval. SUBDIVISION COMMITTEE REVIEW: The item was reviewed by the Committee. Staff was requested to notify the applicant, abutting neighbor, and Mr. Terry Moore of the public hearing. PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION: The applicant was present. There were no objectors. Staff identified the issue as involving a variance request for the reduction of a previously committed 40' buffer to a 15' building setback area. September 11, 1984 SUBDIVISIONS Item No. 18 - Continued During discussion of the item, it was pointed out that the 40' buffer was committed on the previous approval of a preliminary, which was later sold without benefit of a final plat. Thus, the applicant was in possession of an illegal subdivision. Since the applicant was not aware of the platted building line, he initiated plans for a building that would encroach into this area. After some discussion, a motion for approval of the reduction of the 40' platted building line to 15' was made and passed by a vote of 11 ayes, 0 noes and 0 absent.
