Hi Nell,
One Solution is not working for my comments, so here they are.
 
Motley Street           177-F-11, 12, 20, 21, 22
#2012-627               Split zone of R-3 & R-5
December 10, 2012
 
This application is to develop a single lot into two lots.  This triggers the requirement to extend Motley Street and bring it up to City standards from where pavement ends to the end of the property being developed under 14-403.  The applicant has asked for a waiver to bring the street to the end of the development.  However, I do not think the applicant needs a waiver.  The street is being brought up to the end of the property, just not in a parallel fashion. I believe what is being proposed is meeting the intent of the Ordinance and the requirements of Public Services. The proposal is meeting the requirements of 14-403.
 
Lots #1 & #2 are both being shown to meet the respective R-3 & R-5 zone requirements for each, including lot size, street frontage, lot width and setbacks.  In a pre-application meeting, the applicant stated that the lots will only be single family dwellings.  I would like to confirm those uses.  If the building located in the R-5 zone were to be converted to a two family within the next 5 years, both lots would be subject to a Subdivision review.  There probably should be something in the deeds to notify the future owners of a possible Subdivision review. 
 
Of course separate building permits are required for the development of the two lots. At that time the zoning for each lot will be more closely reviewed. 
 
This project is meeting zoning at this time.
