• ? -? . . Mr. Tallon reviewed the direction in which Mr. Wardrobe's current home faces and questioned Mr. Zart if a home was going to be built on lot B. Mr. Zart suggested a house would be built on lot B and it would comply to the current zoning codes. Mr. Tallon reviewed the required 50' foot front yard setback., as well as the side yard setbacks not being less then 15' feet total if there is an attached garage and not less then a total of 20' feet total if it is a detached garage. Mr. McDermott Assistant Engineer suggested Mr. Tallons figures were correct as long as the lot is not a corner lot those requirements would apply unless they applied for a variance. Mr. Wardrobe questioned if he had a say over the lot being split. Mr. Tallon indicated that is why this meeting is held so that the surrounding neighbors as well as the general public can voice their opinions. Mr. Zart suggested he would like to show Mr. Wardrobe the plans and review what would be done to both sites. Mr. Zart, and Mr. Wardrobe reviewed the plans together. Mr. Tallon suggested the front of the new house that will be built on parcel B will be 10' feet off the south end of your property. Mr. Wardrobe asked if the trees will remain. Mr. Zart indicated they would be keeping as many trees as they can but could not say for sure what trees would remain as no plans have even been drawn for the proposed house. Mr. Wardrobe asked about water drain runoff once the lots grading changes. Mr. McDermott Assistant City Engineer the applicants have to submit a topographic survey (site plan) showing how they are going to accommodate the water runoff from the lot. They have to have inlets, and connect it to a sewer line. They are not permitted to dump on their neighbors. Mr. Wardrobe indicated even since the City has done the work on the drainage system in this area my basement has flooded once. Mr. Tallon indicated they will not get an occupancy permit until the site is approved by the Engineering department. The engineering department sends out an inspector to make sure the grades are proper so the property drains properly. Mr. Wardrobe suggested it should be put on the record that there is a water problem in that area and it should be taken care of before they build on that site. Mr. Tallon indicated it is a matter of the ordinances that the code be followed. Mr. Tallon moved to approve the proposal to divide Permanent parcel Number 231-21-009 into two parcels to create a second buildable lot. The location is the "L" shaped lot adjoining the - corner lot at the southeast corner of Walter Road and South Oxford Oval. Zoning is C-residence, single entirely, both parcels conform to frontage, depth and area requirements of the zoning Code. However the two existing garages serving the house at 3461 Walter Road must be removed to conform to the setback requirements from the proposed property line between the two new parcels. The motion was seconded by T. Brennan, and unanimously approved. Motaon Carried V. COMMUNICATIONS: No Items. VI. COMIVIITTEE REPORTS: No Items. VII. MINOR CHANGES: No Items. VIII.
