Solar Nash, Rodne.;y Brannon, Case, No. 1812 Page 2 The R-4 zone requires 15,000 square eet per dwelling unit and allows a 4 unit structure. Thus, thile lot as it exists is adequate for a structure as permitted in the zoning district. 5. The staff has expressed some concern to Mr. Coverdale and Mr,. Brannon regarding the retention of the 25 foot by 68 foot strip of land on the west side of the subject property. An inquiry to Mr. Coverdale regarding the ultimate use of this land suggests that he may wish to sell it to the property owner to the west, thereby enlarging that lot by 1,700 square feet. If this addition were to' -be rr;ade, the land area of the lot to the west would total 18,440 square feet, or 3,440 square feet more than what is required for a 4 unit stricture in the R-4 zone. Each unit in the R-4 zone requires 31750 square feet. In response to our .question, Mr. Coverdale indicated that he does not propose to purchase the vacant lot, or attempt to add this strip of land to the lot in the near future, although he may attempt to do so later. 6. Our concern is for the ultimate use and maintenance of the 25 foot by 68 foot strip of land to be left as part of the original Coverdale parcel. Although this may be added to the lot to the west in the future, there is no such assurance that this will happen. There seems to be no black or white answer to the question. It is simply a matter of risk relating to the wise and efficient use of the land in question. 7. The applicants have submitted a landscape plan for the property that they intend to acquire, a copy of which is attached. You will note the proposal to add n significant amount of landscaping to areas that are not utilized by parking. The parking area is substantially below the land to the west, thereby reducing the impact on the residential property to the west. 8. The proposal is to divide the existing platted lot as proposed, which is allowable under the subdivision regulations because the parcel is a platted lot. That parcel is then proposed to be rezoned from R-6 to B-1 and the approval of a Special Use Permit for the use of the land in accordance with the drawing submitted to be utilized for the accommodation of 16 cars. 9. The Brannon's propose to add an enclosure for the accommodation of their dumpster. You will note this location on their site plan directly north of the existing parking area at the end of the retaining wall.. It appears that this edition will constitute an improvement over the trash receptacle that is now located in the open. Plans for this enclosure are attached. 10. The Engineering Staff notes that a ponding easement for the properties to the north below elevation 220 would be appropriate. of this line (not shown on the applicant's drawing) will Planning Commission hearing by the Engineering Staff.
