Mr. Clark said the stipulations had been pretty well covered by the Building

subcommittees had recommended approval subject to the rezoning being approved.
Mr. Clark said the only stipulation that shoujd be made was that this business

3. REQUEST FOR A LOT SPLIT, L.S. #75-01, DEAN HARMON: Split off the Easterly 8
feet of the North 1/3 of Lot 4, except the East 85 feet, except the West 25
feet, and except the North 30 feet for public utilities and street, Auditor's
Subdivision No. 108, (Parcel 440) and add it to the East 85 feet of the North
1/3 of Lot 4, Auditor's Subdivision No. 108, (Parcel 450), the �ame being 1600
and 1618 Onondaga Street N.E.
Mr. & Mrs. Dean Harmon, 1618 Onondaga Street N.E. and Mr. & Mrs. Charles ,
Brisbin, who are purchasing 1618 Onondaga Street N.E., were present.
Mr. Clark said that Mr. Harmon dwns both parcels. When the attached garage
was built at 1618 Onondaga Street an error was made and this garage infringes on
the next parcel by 3 feet. This parcel is 85 feet and with the additional 8 feet
the lot will be 93 feet wide. Then the garage will meet the sideyard requirement �
of 5 foot. The remaining parcel will be 80 feet wide and this will meet the front
yard and area requirements of the code. This lot split was an obvious thing that
should be done, to place the garage on the proper lot. The administration would
like one stipulation and that was to obtain a fifteen foot triangle on the Northwest
corner of parcel 440 (1600 Onondaga Street N.E.) for future radius on a street that
will pro�ably go in sometime on the Western boundary.
Mr. Harris said that request had not been before the Plats & Subdivisions-
Streets & Utilities Subcorrm�ittee. Mr. Clark said that at the time this request
was made, the petitioner had a loan closing that would have prohibited the're-being
time to schedule this meeting. Because of the cancellation of the February 5th
Planning Commission Meeting, there would have been time, but as this was a fairly
simple split, he felt that it would not be necessary to have this go to the Sub-
�
Plannin�Commission Meetin�c - February 19, 1975 _ �_ Page 4
Cbmmittee.
� Mr. Harmon said he was selling his property at 1618 Onondaga Street N.E.
and just bought the adjoining parcel so he could split off the 8 feet.
Mr. Harris asked if the street on the Western boundary was improyed. Mr. Clark
said it wasn't. It was part of a future street that fits in with a street pattern
that would exit out to Lakeside. At the time this street would be put in, the
other half of the street would be taken from Lot 32.
Mr. Clark said that at the time the house and garage were built at 1618
Onondaga Street, the City r�id not require a verification survey and this was how
the garage was incorrectly located in the first place. According to the application
for the building permit, this garage was to be located 5 feet from the present lot
line. •
Mr. Harmon said he was agreeable to the dedication of the 15 foot triangle on
the N�rthwest corner of what will be 1600 Onondaga Street N.E.
MOTION by B1air, seconded by Drigans, that the Planning Commission recommend
to CounciZ approval of the request for a Iot.split, L.S. #75-01, by Dean Harmon,
to split off the Easterly 8 feet of the North 1/3 of Lot 4, except the East 85 feet,
except the West 25 feet, and except the North 30 feet for public utilities and street,
Auditor's Subdivision No. 108, (Parcel 440) and add it to the East 85 feet of the
North 1/3 of Lot 4, Auditor's Subdivision No: 108,.'(Parcel 450), the same being
1600 and 1618 Onondaga Street N.E., subject to a 15 foot triangle being dedicated
on the 1Vorthwest corner of Parcel 440 (1600 Onondaga Street N.E.) for future radius
,,•� on the street easement. Upon a voice vote, a11 voting aye, the motion carried
unanimously.
