Case 78-09 - Variance to the platting procedures be granted permitting lot 5 to be divided into a 60 ft parcel and a 48 foot parcel April 29, 1978
111 Case No: 78-09
Applicant: Curt Reinhold
Location: North 28 feet of Lot 4 and all of Lot 5, Block 1, Stevens Oakwood Park
addition also known as 228 Tyler Avenue North
Request: That a variance to the platting procedures be granted permitting Lot 5
to be divided into a 60 foot parcel and a 48 foot parcel.
STAFF FINDINGS:
1. Stevens Oakwood Park addition is an area which received special attention by the
Planning Commission at its March 28th meeting when an amendment to the Zoning
Ordinance was recommended to the council that such lots may be divided into
widths of 54 feet provided each lot has 7100 square feet or more and is used as
a single family site.
2. The parcel in question is all of Lot 5 plus 28 feet of Lot 4 making a parcel 136
feet by 289.39 feet. The proposal is to divide lot 5 into a 60 foot and 48 foot
wide parcels with the 48 feet to be combined with the 28 feet of lot 4. The re-
• sults of this division would be a lot 75.98 feet wide by 289.30 feet and a lot
60 feet by 289.39.
3. The required side yard in the R-2 district is 10 feet for a one story house and
12 feet for a two story. The existing house on the 76 foot wide lot has a 12.7
foot side yard. The required front yard is 35 feet and the existing house has
29.7 feet however, the required right-of-way width is now 50 feet while Tyler
has 66 feet, thus if Tyler would be vacated to 50 foot right-of-way the extra
8 feet would produce a front yard of 37.7
4. Due to the proportions and design of Stevens Oakwood Park plat, it was the intent
of the Planning Commission in recommending the heretofore stated amendment to the
Zoning Ordinance to permit the division of the originally platted lots into four
single family use lots of 7100 square feet or more. Lots for use as two family
home sites remain 12,000 square feet. The proposal appears to be in keeping with
this intent with one exception. If the block between Tyler and Van Buren is to
eventually have a public right-of-way along the rear lot line 50 feet in width
it is important to start. Thus, the dedication of 25 feet along the westerly
side at this time would solve the right-of-way responsibility of this land and at
such time as abutting lots extend the dedicated right-of-way the 74 feet and 60
feet wide parcels could be divided into two additional building sites. The 76
411 feet would require the garage removal.
