gadoon N.E. (which includes a 25'
Mr. Deblon stated the property in question is located between Brigadoon Place
and Osborne Road to the east of Arthur St. The property is a ratber deep lot with
an existing house located towards the center of the l.ot. the lot having a double
frontage;consequently the potential for double assessments. He felt this was the
impetus for the lot split.
Mr.Deblon stated the land proposed to be split off ineets all the zoning require-
ments for a new buildable site as sketched. He wanted to emphasize that the sub-
division ord��a�ce at this point in time calls only for �.sketch. The reason for
this is because the hearing process may bring about changes, and it would be very
expensive for the applicant to have the property �esurveyed. There is no existing
survey at tf�is point in time.
Mr. Deblon stated that one of the concerns expressed by Staff was that the exist-
ing property dc�es have an existing non-conforming use of an unimproved driveway.
The Zoning Code cal]s for a hard surfaced driveway. At this time, the City would
^ like to bring that driveway up to code.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, DECEMBER 8, 1982 PAGE 2 �
Ms. Gabel stated the existing driveway was approx. 100 ft. long. It would be an
enorrtwus expense to resurface that driveway.
Mr. Goodspeed stated he did look at this property. He stated this is quite a
nice neighborhood, and he felt just having a new house on that empty lot would be
more of a service to the City, without also requiring the owners to put in a hard
surface driveway.
Mr. Saba stated he agreed with the concept and could understand Staff's point of
view in trying to take these kinds of opportunities to bring things up to code,
but he felt it was an unreasonable request in this case beca�se of the length of
the driveway. �
