• Uniqueness: The Subject Property is bounded by public roads on all four (4) sides, <br />which was the result of actions by the City, not the Applicant. The Subject Property <br />had been envisioned to be subdivided into three (3) lots, evidenced by the City <br />installing three (3) sets of utility stubs when Bowers Drive was modified. <br />• Essential Character: This subdivision will be similar in nature to the Riverstone South <br />neighborhood to the south/east of the Subject Property. Therefore, it should not alter <br />the essential character of the area in the general vicinity of the Subject Property. <br />Alternatives <br />Alternative 1: Approve the necessary variances that would allow the proposed subdivision to move forward to <br />Final Plat. There are practical difficulties that support granting a variance to the three (3) aforementioned <br />standards (width of a corner lot, double frontage lots, and arterial road setback). The City had anticipated the <br />Subject Property subdividing into three (3) single family residential lots, which is apparent based on the three (3) <br />sets of utility stubs being installed with the Bowers Drive improvements. Staff supports this alternative. <br />Alternative 2: Do not approve the necessary variances to allow this subdivision to move forward to Final Plat. As <br />previously noted, two of the variances are direct results of actions by the City (extension of Riverdale Drive <br />creating the double frontage condition and revamping the Zoning Code, which modified the setback requirement <br />from an arterial road after this subdivision was conceptually designed). While it appears that the width of the <br />corner lot (Lot 1) could be increased five (5) feet to meet the minimum standard, that would result in the future <br />home on Lot 3 being shifted slightly closer to Highway 10. It seems more reasonable to keep the added width <br />with Lot 3, so that it leaves a bit more space for plantings, a small berm, and/or privacy fencing should that be <br />desirable by the future property owner. Staff does not support this alternative. <br />Funding Source: <br />The Applicant is responsible for all costs associated with this application. <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends adopting Resolution #24-108 granting multiple variances associated with the proposed <br />subdivision known as Pearson Place 2nd Addition. <br />Outcome/Action: <br />Motion to adopt Resolution #24-108 granting a variance to standards addressing double frontage lots, additional <br />width for a corner lot, and the setback from an arterial road. <br />Site Location Map <br />Sketch Plan <br />Preliminary Grading Plan <br />Existing Conditions <br />Resolution #24-108: Variances <br />Attachments <br />Form Review <br />Inbox Reviewed By Date <br />Brian Hagen Brian Hagen 04/18/2024 08:22 Ail <br />Form Started By: Chris _--iiderson Started On: 04/15/2024 10:41 AM <br />Final Approval Date: 04/18/2024 <br />
