I. DESCRIPTION OF TIIE PROPOSAL
The owner of lot B-9 requests approval to reconfigure the platted building envelope on the lot. The
illustration below depicts the originally approved building envelope in dashed lines and the proposed
reconfigured envelope in a gray-hashed form. The reconhguration generally enlarges th" "nrllop"primarily on the east and north sides. The Applicant requests the enlargement to accommodate
certain outdoor improvements including a swimming pool.
II. STAFF COMMENTS / CONCERNS
The subject lot is located in the 3/q acre zone district within Aspen Glen Planned Unit Development
(PUD). As you will recall, when Filing I of the Aspen Glen PUD was approved,lots were platted
with building envelopes as well as with setbacks setout in the PUD zoning. In most, if not all cases,

the building envelopes were more restrictive than the setbacks in the zoning which is the case of Lot
B-9. As such, the proposed expansion will not exceed the required setbacks.
The Aspen Glen Homeowners Association has reviewed the change and has no issues with the
proposal as stated in their leffer submitted with the Application. Note that portions of the lot are
encumbered by the 100-year floodplain. However; as the site plan shows, none of the building
envelope expansion gets any closer to the delineated floodplain than is presentlyplatted. Effectively,
there is at least a 2O-foot buffer from the envelope of the floodplain.
III. AUTHORITY
Section 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; however, all other applicable state and federal restrictions shall also
be met.
IV. STAFF RECOMMENDATION

the following conditions:
