The north 64 feet of the east 126.66 feet of Lot. 1, Block a, Bellvue Acres Addition. (southwest corner of Bryant and 55th Avenues North) Peter Kampa, 5447 Bryant avenue North Q The present owner of the property., Mr. Peter Kampa, wishes to sail approximately half of his 128' x 135' lot:, creating two substandard lots of 64 foot width, with the corner lot being offered for sale, and his home occupying the southerly lot. I have been told by the applicant that there is a joint driveway easement between Bryant and Colfax which is proposed to be recognized in this division as a part of the southerly lot (see sketch). POINTS TO BE CONSIDERED: 1) The Commission and Council agreed some time ago that the older portion of the southeast neighborhood should be encouraged as an area in which duplenes could be built,, perhaps on properties made up of two or more smaller parcels. The parcel here presented for division is of sufficient size to contain a duplex dwelling, except for the fact that it is already occupied by a single family home. A situation similar to this one was presented to as a variance last year (Wm. Gallion -- 670681, and a variance was approved to permit division into two lots, each 63' x 110'. The difference between these two cases is thet the present application includes a sibitandard corner lot, with greater difficulty in utilizing the lot for a home:site. Page 2 Application No. 68056 `- 2) if a variance is approved for this 64 foot wide corner lot, consideration must be given to the usability of the property without variance. Will the City permit the owner to construct a house according to pre-1957 setback standards of 15 feet along a street, or will it require adherence to the newer standard of 25 feet? STAFF COMMENTS: lj Although I cannot produce logical arguments for not per- mitting a division with a 7 foot tvride "leg" of land extending to 55th Avenue :for driveway purposes, e think a divisjoii wit-houiG this sLr ip o1: laad woul", be c.'1.eana:s: and create fewer problems in the future. Since the southern property would have access to Bryant Avenue an-..rway, tbo use of the western 7 feet of the property to the nol-th as a driveway could be accomplished. as a private easemoilt recorded on the properties, as I believe is the case with the properties to the west. 2) If lots are to be permitted to continue to be divided into sizes permitted many years ago, perhaps consideration should be given to creating a different zoning classification for this area which would include smaller lots for single family residential uses. if not, at least some further discussion of the duplex development idea is in order.
