Policy/Action Requested:

Recommendation:
Approve the resolution as requested.
Discussion:

Cal Haasken, representing Harland Hohenstein, has applied for the Final Plat of Maple Trail Estates 4th Addition.

 

The proposed plat involves the creation of three lots, two new single-family residential lots and the re-configuration of the lot that Mr. Hohenstein's house is located on. All of the properties are currently zoned RR, Rural Residential.

 

The Marschall Road improvement project removed Mr. Hohenstein's access to Marschall Road and extended Hohenstein Court through Outlot A by  means of a County Right-of-Way Plat, which reduced the size of the lots to below the Rural Residential zone minimum lot size. Mr. Hohenstein now receives access to his house from Hohenstein Court. 

 

Earlier this year, the Board of Adjustment and Appeals approved a determination for the expansion of a non-conformity that allowed Mr. Hohenstein to re-configure his residential lot and plat two new residential lots, one lot on each side of Hohenstein Court. The proposed re-configuration of Mr. Hohenstein's lot adds frontage on Hohenstein Court and eliminates the need for a driveway easement for Mr. Hohenstein to access Hohenstein Court (see existing conditions attachment). The new lots would be served by private sewer and well, as Mr. Hohenstein's lot is today.

 

Staff recommends approval of the plat, subject to conditions.
