Consultation has concluded
The applicant requests approval of the Barnes Two-Lot Subdivision located at 552 West 1200 North in the RA-1 zone.
The proposed two-lot subdivision is not a flag lot, as both lots meet the 100-foot frontage requirement of the zone, as well as the minimum 15,000 square foot lot size. The lot with the existing home is proposed to be 15,858 square feet (.36 acres) and the new lot at 23,673 square feet (0.40 acres). The existing accessory buildings on both lots are proposed to remain.
The Code does state that accessory buildings are not permitted in the front setback. Because Lot 2 will now face Courtyard Drive there was some concern about that Code requirement. As Staff looked at the situation with the existing accessory building, the decision was made that because the building is set back from the roadway, with the Courtyard Cove HOA piece in between the accessory building and the road, that Staff would be comfortable supporting the building to remain. Ultimately the Planning Commission will need to give the final approval, but Staff believes that under this situation, it makes sense to keep the building because it is set back far enough off the road when you take into account the HOA piece.
