Description/Background:
The applicant, Mr. David George, is requesting preliminary subdivision review for a five lot single-family subdivision located at 825 E 7800 S and adjacent to the North Pine Villas Subdivision. The subject property is a narrow and deep lot that has an existing home fronting onto 7800 South and a large rear yard that is mostly unused. The proposed subdivision would divide the 1.09 acres property into five lots, one for the existing home to remain and four lots for new single-family home construction. The subject property was recently rezoned to accommodate this type of development and was zoned R-1-8(INF), consistent with the subdivision adjacent to the east.
The applicant is also requesting that the Planning Commission grant a special exception for the establishment of lots without public frontage as well as the use of “flag” or “L-shaped” lots. These issues will be further discussed in the analysis section of this report.
The North Pine Villas PUD is a project that was approved at the end of 2017 and is currently under construction. When the project was brought to city staff as a conceptual plan, staff encouraged the developer to try and acquire the subject property of this application in order to develop both properties together. The owner was unwilling to sell at the time and, consequently, the North Pine Villas PUD was approved separately. Despite this, the North Pine Villas PUD was designed to accommodate and anticipate the development of the subject property by providing a stub street that could be used for access to any lots developed on the property in the future.
