The motion carried. II. NEW BUSINESS: S=867 Preliminary Plat Approval for Carroll Addition General. Location: West of Gleason Road and north of Valley View Road. Mr. Larsen informed the Commission the subject property contains 41,553 square feet and is developed with a single dwelling unit. Immediately to the north of the subject property is St. Albans Episcopal Church. All other surrounding uses are single family dwellings. Mr. Larsen added the owner of the subject property has submitted a request to subdivide the property in order.to create one new buildable lot. The new lot would contain 19,346 square feet, and the lot for the existing dwelling would contain 22,207 square feet. Both lots would exceed ordinance requirements for lot width, lot depth and lot area. The existing dwelling would maintain the required 10 foot setback from the new property line. Mr. Larsen pointed out lots along this section of Valley View Road vary significantly in size and shape. Lot sizes range from approximately 13,000 square feet to over 40,000 square feet for this parcel and one other. Lots to the south and east are generally smaller and lots to the west are larger than those proposed here. The proposed lots front on Valley View and should be evaluated in light of conditions on Valley View Road. They'do not relate to or impact lots to the west in Indian Hills. The proposed subdivision is similar to the lots created by Arrowhead Ridge and Merit Ridge, subdivisions just to the south along Valley View Road. Mr. Larsen concluded staff recommends preliminary plat approval conditioned upon: 1. Final Plat Approval. 2. Subdivision Dedication. The proponents, Mr. and ?yrs. Carroll were present. Mr. Runyan asked Mr. and Mrs. Carroll their plans for the existing dwelling. Mr. Carroll told the Commission the property has belonged to Mrs. Carroll's family for a number of years. Their plan is to renovate the existing home and sell the proposed lot. Mr. Palmer moved for preliminary plat approval. Mt. Runyan seconded the motion. All were in favor. The motion carried. III.
