Motion by Councilmember Burg, seconded by Councilmember Jacobsen to open the Public Hearing. 4 Ayes, 0 Nays - Motion Carried The Public Hearing was opened at 7:07 p.m. City Manager Lotter indicated Assistant Director of Community Assets and DevelopmentlPlarnling Director Gundlach would be presenting this item to the Council. Assistant Director of Community Assets and DevelopriientfPlanning Director Gundlach explained the applicant is requesting a minor subdivision, subdividing off a 10' x 140' (1,400 SF) parcel from 20 32nd AVE NW (depicted on the attached survey as "area to be transferred from Gregory Parcel to Knight Parcel"). The intent of the proposed subdivision is not to create a new developable lot, rather to allow the adjacent property at 50 32nd AVE NW to obtain additional land to accommodate an existing retaining wall system. The proposal would be conditioned on the newly subdivided parcel being legally combined with 50 32nd AVE NW. Both 20 and 50 32nd AVE NW, pre and post subdivision, meet the minimum area and width standards of the R-1, Single Family Residential zoning district. The applicant, who is the owner of 50 32nd AVE NW, wishes to obtain additional land to accommodate some timber retaining walls that were constructed years ago unknowingly outside the property boundary. While the proposed subdivision doesn't eliminate 100% of the encroachment, it gets very close and the applicant intends to physically remove the additional 1'-2' of retaining wall in the near future so as to remove all encroachments. Until that occurs, a private easement agreement between the landowners has been negotiated. The owner of the parcel to be subdivided (20 32nd AVE NW) has consented to the subdivision by signing the Land Use Application. City Code Section 26-18 outlines which projects are eligible for Minor Subdivision approval verses a Preliminary and Final Plat. Because this subdivision is of small size and conditions are well defined, only a Minor Subdivision is necessary. As stated in Section 26-18 (1) the City Council Page 3 of 11 6.
