APPLICABLE DEVELOPMENT CODE REGULATIONS Section 11.060. Two (2) Lot Subdivision with an Existing Home Two (2) Lot Subdivision Criteria. For the purposes of this section a two (2) lot subdivision is defined as a subdivision which includes an existing home (at least five (5) years old) and where both lots can meet the criteria outlined under the “Urban” category of Table 12-060 and are in compliance with all other development requirements and standards with the following exceptions: 1. The lot with an existing home shall be exempt from the curb and sidewalk improvements. However, this exemption does not apply to a 2 lot subdivision with a flag lot. 2. Both lots shall be exempt from the Right to Farm mitigation requirements specified in Section 18.030 of this Code, including the agricultural no climb fence. 3. In determining whether connection to the City sewer and water systems are required, the additional 150 feet (sewer) in Note 1 and the additional 250 feet (water) in note 3 of Table 12-060 shall not apply for the lot with an existing home. ANALYSIS The applicant is requesting approval of a two-lot subdivision with an existing home. The subject property was a part of the original incorporation of Lehi City. This request splits the property in two creating one lot at 8,471 square feet and a second lot at 8,000 square feet. Lot 1 has an existing home which is to remain. Both lots meet the requirements of an R-2 zone, including a minimum 75-foot of frontage and 8,000 square feet in lot size. The DRC made comments about items that are missing or are extraneous on the plat including sewer, water, and irrigation main lines that need to be shown, and extra signature boxes which are not needed. Please refer to the DRC comments for a full list. The typical setback table shown on the plat also needs to be revised to reflect Lehi City setback requirements. Please consider all DRC comments as a part of the motion. RECOMMENDATIONS/POSSIBLE ACTIONS Planning Division staff recommends APPROVAL of the proposed two-lot subdivision with an existing home, including all DRC comments. This recommendation is based on the following findings: 1. 2. 3.
The proposed two-lot subdivision is not detrimental to the public health, safety, and welfare of Lehi City. The proposed two-lot subdivision meets the requirements of the Lehi City Development Code in regards to twolot subdivision approvals. Other findings based upon information presented at the public hearing.
