Ft. ZONING CL 1. BACKGROUND AND DESCRPTION OF THE PROPOSAL The applicant is requesting to combine lots 7 & 18 (each lot is 5,000 sq. ft.) into one lot. This request will meet the required minimum lot size and setbacks for the underlying zone. Additionally, the request will help facilitate separation requirements for a septic system. The minimum lot size in the CL (Commercial Limited) zone is 7, 500 sq. ft. For this lot the setbacks are as follows: • Front: 25' • Rear: 7.5' Commercial, 25' Residential • Side: 10' or '/2 the principle building height -- whichever is greater Staff Comments The proposal is relocating two or less property lines common to two properties, allowing the board to approve the request at a public meeting. The applicant's request will help eliminate two non- conforming lots. The proposed amended plat will conform to all applicable dimensional requirements of the CL zone with respect to lot size and setbacks. Additionally, the larger lot will facilitate the use of an ISDS. 2. AUTHORITY §6:10 of the Subdivision regulations states that an amendment may be made to a recorded plat, if such amendment does not 1) increase the number of subdivision lots or dwelling units, or 2) result in the major relocation of a road or add new roads. This request will not result in either of the two aforementioned standards and Staff finds these standards are met. Amended Plat for Lot 7&18Travelers Highlands Page 2 3.
