Public hearing regarding a tentative subdivision that would create nine parcels in an area between Mendolia Way and West Pine Street. The subject property (2.30 acres) is located in an R-1-8, Residential Single-Family Zoning District on Map 372W lOC, Tax Lot 3100. Ken Gerschler, Community Planner, presented the Planning Department staff report. Bob Fellows, is working on behalf of the applicant, Marion Hull, to develop the subject property into a 9-lot subdivision. This property was just recently annexed imo the city, and would be a continuation of the Counrry Meadows subdivision. One of the lots on Mendolia Way would be lost in order to make a connection to this subdivision. All of the lots will have the standard setbacks for the Ciry. Mr. Gerschler noted that lots 3,4, and 5 are unusually shaped lots, and will have to have smaller building envelopes to meet the setback requirements. Alot-line adjustment was shown on the map, and needs to be removed from this tentative plan. Including it would cause a problem because one portion of it is in the Ciry and the others in the county. It would be better if it was presented separately. The Fire District did not make any recommendations because of staff changes, however the plan is still subject to their review. The tentative plan is in compliance with the Comprehensive Plan and the City's zoning code.

Mr. Brennan reporred that the street is wider inside the subdivision so that the future owners of the lots will be able to parkin front of their houses. There will be no parking on the hammerhead portion of the street, and the entire subdivision will have sidewalks, which will be in a 5 foot easement. This will result in a 25 foot front yard setback for the garages. There will also be a Deferred Improvement Agreement for improvements along Pine/Hanley Road. A 44 foot right-of--way will be required from centerline of Pine/Hanley which will be deeded before Final Plat. A 12 inch water line will need to be extended through the property to connect to the water line on Pine/Hanely Road. The agent for the applicant, Bob Fellows, asked what the size of the water line had to be and whether the right-of--way would be part of the deferred improvement agreement. The applicant, Marion Hull, asked about the water line and the easement on his property.
