ITEM NO.: 1
H. ANALYSIS:
FILE NO.: S-126-D
There were no remaining outstanding technical issues associated with the
request in need of addressing raised at the October 4, 2012, Subdivision
Committee meeting. The applicant is seeking an amendment to the
approved preliminary/final plat for this individual lot to allow a reduction in
the platted building line. As noted previously the applicant is requesting to
amend the preliminary/final plat to reduce the front yard setback and
platted building line along Mabelvale Drive to 50-feet. The property is
zoned 1-2, Light Industrial District. Within the 1-2, Light Industrial Zoning
District the required front yard building setback is 50-feet.
Staff is supportive of the request. The applicant has indicated the
modification and reduction to the platted building line is necessary to
complete a building expansion proposed for the business located on -site.
To staffs knowledge there are no outstanding technical issues associated
with the request. Staff does not feel the approval of the amended
preliminary/final plat to allow the reduced platted building line, which is in
compliance with the zoning district, will adversely impact the development
or the area. The applicant will be required to complete a one -lot replat to
recognize the amended platted building line

Staff recommends approval of the request subject to compliance with the
comments and conditions as outlined in paragraphs D, E and F of the
agenda staff report.
