DATE: 01-12-16
COUNCIL ACTION FORM
SUBJECT: PLAT OF SURVEY FOR 101, 105, 107 and 205 S. WILMOTH AVENUE
BACKGROUND:
The City's subdivision regulations are found in Chapter 23 of the Ames Municipal Code.
These regulations include the process for creating or modifying property boundaries and
for determining if any improvements are required in conjunction with the platting of
property. The regulations also describe the process for combining existing platted lots or
conveyance parcels in order to create a parcel for development purposes. A plat of survey
is allowed by Section 23.309 as a boundary line adjustment for purpose of consolidating
parcels.
This plat of survey is for a proposed consolidation of four existing parcels for a
combined total lot area of 8.91 acres. (Attachment A Location Map). The property at
101 S. Wilmoth is the site of a single-family home which was converted to a 4 unit
apartment building. The properties at 105 and 107 S. Wilmoth are two-family residential
structures and 205 S. Wilmoth (Parcel M) is a large vacant parcel which was formerly the
middle school athletic field. It is intended that the three existing structures will be
demolished to allow for the construction of a new mixed-use and residential apartment
development. The four parcels have recently been rezoned to the Residential High
Density zoning district.
Based on the Zoning Code, only residential apartment buildings are permitted to
have more than one structure on a lot. In this case, one building (101 S. Wilmoth) is
considered an apartment building, while the other two are considered two-family
structures by definition, therefore at minimum, two of the three structures must be
demolished prior to recording of the Plat of Survey to avoid creating any non-
conforming structures. In this circumstance, the property owner has agreed to let
the Police Department use the three structures for training exercises and wishes to
delay their demolition. To allow this activity and to meet the zoning limitations on
the number of buildings, staff has required that the structures be made
uninhabitable through the abandonment of the utilities. The Inspections Division
has visually verified that the water and sewer connections to the structures have
been abandoned for all three structures, therefore making the structures
uninhabitable.
Boundary line adjustments do not trigger additional infrastructure improvements, unless
partial infrastructure improvements existing and are required to be extend across a
property. The proposed parcel meets the requirements of having complete infrastructure
along Lincoln Way and Wilmoth as outlined in the Subdivision Code and does not trigger
further extension of infrastructure. Although there is a planned bikeway facility along
the south property line of this site, since it is not currently present, the bikeway
1
improvement or dedication is not required with the boundary line adjustment. The
development or future subdivision of the property will trigger additional infrastructure
improvement requirements.
Approval of this plat of survey will allow the applicant to prepare the official plat of survey
and submit it to the Planning and Housing Director for review. The Director will sign the
plat of survey confirming that it fully conforms to all conditions of approval. The prepared
plat of survey may then be signed by the surveyor, who will submit it for recording in the
office of the County Recorder.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The City Council can adopt the resolution approving the proposed plat of survey.
2. The City Council can deny the proposed plat of survey if the City Council finds that the
requirements for plats of survey as described in Section 23.308 have not been
satisfied.
3. The City Council can refer this back to staff and/or the owner for additional information.
MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION:
The result of the proposed plat of survey will be creation of the "Enlarged North Parcel" as
referred to in the 2015 Settlement Agreement for development of these properties.
Combining the parcels was at the option of the property owner in the settlement
agreement. Staff has determined that the proposed plat of survey satisfies all code
requirements for a boundary line adjustment of existing lots and has made a
preliminary decision of approval.
Therefore, it is the recommendation of the City Manager that the City Council accept
Alternative #1, thereby adopting the resolution approving the proposed plat of survey.
