Body
Description/Background:
The applicant, KLK Wild Goose, LLC, is requesting preliminary review for a seven-lot single family subdivision. The applicant is also requesting the following five special exceptions:
1. Exception for a road length greater than 500 feet
2. Exception for a right-of-way width less than 52 feet
3. Exception for lots without public frontage
4. Exception for a subdivision with less than two points of ingress/egress
5. Exception for a waiver to the requirement for park strip, curb and gutter, and sidewalk on both sides of the right-of-way
The subject property is approximately 4.27 acres in size and currently contains an existing home and a barn. Both structures are planned to be demolished as part of this new subdivision. It is located in the R-1-20A zone and will be accessed from 10000 S., as there is a 50-foot access easement to the north that runs through the County properties located to the north of this development. In addition to the two lots located in the County to the north, the southern parcel that is part of this development is also currently in the County. All three of these County lots are currently moving forward to annex into Sandy City. The narrow property that abuts this development to the west is owned by the Metropolitan Water District, and beyond that are a number of single-family homes in the R-1-10 zone. Finally, South of this development are single-family homes in the R-1-10 and R-1-20 zones. All homes that border the property to the east are single family homes under the jurisdiction of Salt Lake County as well, but they are not annexing into Sandy City.
