AGENDA TITLE:
Title
Discussion of Camelback Lands 6 Lot Split (LS-19-05)
5307 North Invergordon Road (APN: 173-20-026)
Body
Background
Request:
The applicant, Joel Saper, is requesting approval of a lot split to divide a 2.24-acre parcel into two lots. Lot 1 is 48,837 square feet in size (1.12 acres) and Lot 2 is 48,820 square feet in size (1.12 acres). The subject property is located at 5307 N. Invergordon Road.
Existing Site:
The property has a house, guest house, pool, fences, entry gate, and tennis court located on it. The existing structures must be demolished prior to recordation of an approved plat, since the lot split cannot create any non-conforming structures.
General Plan:

ENFORCEMENT:
There are no current zoning violations associated with the subject property.

Invergordon Road: No right-of-way (ROW) dedication is required. The right-of-way is 66' wide and the Town standards require a minimum ROW width of 66' per the General Plan (for Minor Arterial Streets without a Median).

Traffic:
Per the Town Engineer, a traffic study is not required.
