However, City Council recently <br />adopted a policy requiring notiflcati0n of a proposed subdivision be sent out to residents-within <br />350 feet of the subject property, during sketch plan submittal. Staff attempted to notify property. <br />owners within 350 feet of the subject property... <br /> <br />Observations: <br /> <br />The subject property is approximately 21.5 acres in size and is located in the R-1 Rural <br />Developing Res!dential District. The minimum lot size in this district is 2.5 acres. The sketch <br />plan is proposing io plat two rural residential lots: 1-2.5 acre lot for the existing homestead and <br />1-19 acre lot for the applicant's new home2 Both lots meet the minimum area standards for the <br />disi.dct.

Code states that ali lots in the rural area must have 200 feet· of frontage on a publicly <br />dedicated road. The proposed Lot 1 (existing homes;cad) has 198.4 feet. of frontage on Green <br />Valley Road. This does not comply w/th City.. Code, however it is an existing lawful non- <br />conforming condition. Lot 2 (new lot for.development) is proposed to receive public access from <br />the westerly terminus of 174th Avenue N.W., which technically means that the lot has 66 feet of <br />frontage on a public road.
