Assistant Community Development Director Trudgeon replied that the height restriction is something tidal can be changed at anYtime in the future. Assistant Community Development Director Tmdgeon staff will put together some recommended changes and bring them back to a future work session. 3) 161lin/Olivine Pm)posed Development Assistant Community Development Director Trudgeon stated that Grog Bauer is proposing to construct a single-[hmill/house on the property Ire owns at 160th Lane. As part of the proposal, Mr. Bauer would like to utilize part of the property [<>cared at the comer of Olivine Street and 161-~t rane. This propert7 currently has a sins!e-family residence on it ~,7_10 - Lane) that Mr. Bauer owns. [n order for Mr. Bauer to do what he wants to do, approval of a minor subdivision and three variances are aeede& One variance is to the minimum lot size, one to have less than 200 feet of lot width at the street, and one for allowing a private drive in the 160th Lm~e right-of-way. Tkis property recantty received an administrative subdivision between Mr. Bauer and the Gun Club. The administrative subdivision swapped land on each side of the ditch that ran ti]rough dmir properties. The minor subdivision is necessary Ibr the iot lines ~o be reconfigured m create two lots. The lot with the existing house (7210 - 161st Lane) is being proposed to be about one acre in size. The current minimum lot size in tbJs area is 2.5 acres. The remaining acreage ~Yrom 7210 - 16tst Lane would go towards Mr. Bauer's new' lot. The new buildable lot. where Mr. Bauer would like to build a new home ~br his faimly, will have access from 160~h Lane. Cun'ently, the right-of-way extends to the boundary of Mr. Bauer's property, but is not constructed. The built road stops about 350 feet from Mr. , ~r~pe,,~ Mr. Bauer would like to construct a driveway, within the ri,,ht= of way,, and not a road to access Ns property. Since the [or has only 66 lket of n'ght of way, a variance will be needed since code requires rural iots have 200 feet of road frontage. Ckv staff has reviewed the proposal and has raised concerns regarding constructing a drivew'ay in the 160m Lane right of way and the reduced lot size 'rbr 7210 151st Lane. it was noted ~har as pat~ of tl~e minor subdivision process, a future subdivision plan would be required. If the land is subdivided in the 2tture ',as urban lots, staiTs reservations will no longer be valid since a new-road will need to be constructed tt'a:ough the prope~y and the 7210 [61st Lane house would presumably be served by Cky so,ices. However, there presently are no plans to run sewer and water through this property. Grog Bauer reviewed d~e proposed ghost plans for the property. Councilmember Kurak questioned if it would be possible to have the driveway go through the pasture area. Mr. Bauer explained that he would have to remove abont 150 oak trees to fi_e,* a driveway, through the pasture. Councilmember Elvig inquired as to why they could not extend the lot ~br the existing ~ing!e family home back enough ,to create a 1.5 acre lot. Cit7 Coancii Work Session/guly 29, 2003 Page ? of !3 27
