Planning Commission Report,
WAIVER OF PLATTING REQUIREMENTS
417 Cottage Downs
APRIL 17, 1987
PURPOSE: To review and recommend action on a request
for a Waiver of the Platting Requirements.
BACKGROUND:
Name of Applicant: Jon Schwartzman
Address of Property: 417 Cottage Downs
Present Zoning: R -1 -D
Nature of Request: To divide two existing
parcels into 20,000 square feet and 24,500
square feet
Reason for Request: To sell vacant lot
The applicant is proposing to add a 15 foot wide strip
to the west side of his property at 413 Cottage Downs,
from the vacant abutting lot. The applicant owns both
lots.
The east parcel will contain 24,450 square feet and the
westerly parcel will have 20,000 square feet. An R -1 -D
district has a minimum lot size of 20,000 square feet.
ANALYSIS: Both lots will conform with the minimum lot
requirements for the R -1 -D district. The easterly
parcel has an existing dwelling on the lot. The
westerly setback will be increased to 27.15 feet, all
other setbacks will remain the same. The westerly
parcel is a vacant lot which the applicant has stated
he probably will be selling. Both lots presently have
access off of cottage Downs.
A Waiver of the Plat is the usual procedure with a
simple lot division because of the expense to the
applicant and the creating of new small plats.
No.

Waiver of the Plat for a single property
division.
