<br />- <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />November 16, 1994 Plan Commission MinUf('s <br /> <br />Pi/ge 2 <br /> <br />Commission's procedures and criteria for reviewing resubdivision applications and called for <br />testimony from the applicant. <br /> <br />Mr. Rik Cannon representing the Belle Meade Corp., 8012 Bonhomme. Ste. 300, Clayton. MO <br />63105, stated that he has submitted a proposed final plat of a resubdivision of Lots I. 2 and 3 <br />of the Northmoor Subdivision a.k.a. 7001 Northmoor. The resubdivision will create two lots <br />out of the three lots in order for him to develop a new home for resale on the vacant lor. The <br />existing house will remain. <br /> <br />Chairperson Marsh asked Mr. Goldman to report on the staff review. Mr. Goldman stated that <br />The Belle Meade Corporation, represented by Rik Cannon, has submitted a proposal to <br />resubdivide Lots 1, 2 and 3 of Block 1 of Northmoor Park (700 1 Northmoor) to create two lots <br />as set forth in the proposed final plat prepared by Topos Surveying & Engineering Corp. Belle <br />Meade plans to construct a new home on the undeveloped lor. University City Municipal Code <br />~29-4 requires that lot area and width of resubdivided lots conform with the use regulations of <br />the Zoning Code. ~34-30.3 sets forth the following minimum standards for buildable lots <br />located in the "SR" - Single Family Residential District: a minimum area of seven thousand two <br />hundred (7,200) square feet and a minimum width of not less than sixty (60) feet at the building <br />line. Exception to this lot size standard shall be granted by the Zoning Administrator if the lot <br />width and area are consistent with the prevailing pattern of the subdivision in which the lot is <br />located. The Zoning Administrator has determined that the proposed lots conform with the <br />requirements of the use regulations. With an area of 7,220 s.f. and a width of 75' at the <br />building line, Lot A exceeds the minimum standards for lot area and width. The area of Lot <br />B is 6,475 s.f., below 7,200 square feet, however, it exceeds the lot area of most of the <br />surrounding lots and therefore, meets the prevailing pattern requirement of the exception. The <br />width of Lot B at the building line is 70' which exceeds the minimum requirement of 60'. The <br />resulting area, width and depth of the lots are in substantial conformance with the prevailing <br />pattern of existing development on the block frontage as required by ~29-4(d) of the Municipal <br />Code. The property is bounded on the north by a private alley which is encroached upon by a <br />number of garages and does not serve as secondary vehicle access. If 7.5' of the alley is <br />considered in computing the lot area, Lot B becomes 7000 s. f. The existing home on Lot A will <br />still meet the 6' required side yard setback after the new dividing property line is established. <br />There will be ample room to develop Lot B within the required setbacks. The City Staff <br />recommends that the proposed resubdivision be approved. Mr. Goldman stated that a separate <br />issue concerning the alley to the north will be discussed as the next agenda item. <br /> <br />Mr. Marsh asked if any members of the public wished to make comments. John Rodgers of <br />7015 Northmoor and Gertrude Ball of 70 I 8 Forsyth stated they were here for in formallonal <br />purposes and had no objections to the resubdivision at this point in time. No other members of <br />the public asked to speak. <br /> <br />Ms. Ratner stated that the proposed final plat conforms with the mInImum standards and <br /> <br />m-II-16.plc <br />
