PLANNING REPORT DATE: 7 December 1988 CASE NUMBER: 1893 APPLICANT: Eleanor Gillespie LOCATION: East of Lakeview Avenue, Between Woodhill Drive and County Road C-2 (see sketch) ACTION REQUESTED: Division of Platted Lot PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS: 1. This property has a frontage of 180 feet on the east side of Lakeview Avenue and a depth of 290 feet. The existing house was constructed at approximately the center of the easterly half of the lot. Ten feet is proposed to be dedicated for additional right-of-way contiguous to Lakeview, which has recently been approved. No additional right-of-way is required for Lakeview. 2. The proposal, as you will note in the attached drawing, is to divide the property into two parcels, one of which would have 85 feet of frontage in the northwesterly corner of the site and a depth of 150 feet. Thus, the lot area of the smallest parcel (Parcel A) will be 12,750 square feet. The minimum lot area for such an interior lot according to code is 11,000 square feet. The proposed lot will obviously far exceed the minimum lot requirements. Though the lot arrangement is unique, it would appear as though the proposal represents a logical way to utilize the significant portion of the property for a new single-family home site. 4. Under the front yard setback rules, the house to be constructed on Parcel A will have to be setback 40 feet from the public right-of-way rather than the 30 feet normally required. The setback rule in Roseville states that if contiguous lots have setbacks greater than 30 feet, a new home shall be placed in line with the existing homes, but that such an alignment shall not require the home to be setback more than 40 feet. 5. The Engineering Staff notes that there should be the provision for a 20 foot easement on the easterly side of this property where there is an existing sewer line. The Staff notes that there are existing utility services in Lakeview Avenue that can provide services to the new developable lot (Parcel A).
