Senior Planner Doty said that staff reviewed the application based on the zoning ordinance
standards for lot area, width, and setbacks, but did not review the application based on the
subdivision regulations.
Chair Davis asked if the lot was not big enough to stand on its own.
Senior Planner Doty answered that the lot is not big enough to develop as a single family
property.
Chair Davis introduced Public Works Director Doran Cote who clarified the new right-of-way
line was reviewed by Hennepin County. He said the current property owners have been involved
from the beginning, and had to sign the plat application.
