Variance
The applicant seeks a variance from Chapter 15 (Subdivision) to permit a replatting
and division of a vacant 126 x 1=0.6 .fit. parcel into two lots of less than
ordinance width and area standards.. The property is zoned R-2 (one and two family
dwellings).
Tile applicant has rr�ai ntai ned a purchase option on this property and has proposed
this division for about one year. The variance application represents his effort
to achieve the desired two lots, recognizing the considerations for our present
neoative recoriwiendation.
1. The proposed action is not consistent with •the Comprehensive Plan which
proposes the developnn?nt of such parcels in the R-2 zone: with two family
dwellings (large -lot single family dwellings are permitted). The Plan
visualizes eventual coO nation of the existing substandard parcels in
the area into lots such as this for R-2 development.
�.. While the Comprehensive Plain is under review, the criteria for planned
development of the R-2 area have not been thoroughly analyzed. Amendments
to the Ordinances (Subdivision and Zoning) could be made only upon adopted
changes to the Comprehensive Plan.
2. Creation of substandard lots has been generally avoided (except in the
case of end lots in a major subdivision or in the case of partially de-
veloped lots where the remaining area represented a buildable lot, though
the new or occupied lot was less than the ordinance standards. The few
recent examples of the latter case had been recognized marry years ago by
the Village Council, and were R-1 in character.
3. The standards for a subdivision variance (Section 15-•112) are not met.
a. Strict application of the provisions of the Subdivision Ordinance
(or the Zoning Ordinance) would not deprive the reasonable use of
the land. The parcel is large enough to support either a one or
two family dwelling.
b. The variance is not necessary for the preservation of a substantial
property right of the petitioner. The applicant proposes to divide
the property far purposes of building and selling two single family
homes.
c. The granting of the variance could be detrimental ---pending farther
research and review --- in light of estalbished Comprehensive Planning
and zoning of the particular area;

Application No. 75036
It is conceivable that possible future revisions of the Comprehensive Plan,
and subsequent ordinance amendments, would allow the requested division.
Present criteria support a recommended denial of the application.
A public hearing has been scheduled.
