Home My WebLink AboutA001 - Council Action Form dated March 10, 2020 ITEM # 19 DATE: 03-10-20 COUNCIL ACTION FORM SUBJECT: PLAT OF SURVEY (BOUNDARY LINE ADJUSTMENT) FOR 224 ASH AVENUE BACKGROUND: The City's subdivision regulations found in Chapter 23 of the Ames Municipal Code 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 for the consolidation of conveyance parcels and for boundary line adjustments. This proposed plat of survey is for a boundary line adjustment for consolidation of two existing lots and a portion of a third existing lot addressed as 224 Ash Avenue to create one 0.64 acre parcel. These parcels are currently occupied by Tappa Kau Epsilon (TKE) Fraternity. The property is zoned Residential High Density (RH). The existing property has been in its current configuration since the mid 1950's. The proposed change results in one new parcel. labeled as Parcel C. The proposed new parcel is being created in advance of a proposed remodel and addition to the fraternity house. A site plan is currently under review by staff. The consolidation of the existing lots must be done in order to create a legal lot for approval of a Site Development Plan and other permitting purposes. The remodel and new addition replaces a portion of the existing house and does not trigger the requirement of a demolition permit from the City Council under the East University Impact Overlay standards (O-UIE). No public improvements are necessary with the plat of survey. Approval of this plat of survey (Attachment B) 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 23.309 have not been satisfied. 3. The City Council can refer this back to staff and/or the owner for additional information. CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff has determined that the proposed plat of survey satisfies all Subdivision Code requirements for a boundary line adjustment of existing lots and has made a preliminary decision of approval. No conflict exists with the existing RH zoning standards as a result of the boundary line adjustment. The boundary line adjustment does not trigger infrastructure requirements unless there is a gap in completion of existing infrastructure. 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.
