Lot Line Adjustment Application
Dear Mr. Pingel:
Attached please find a Lot Line Adjustment application for the above-referenced project. If you recall, this project
appeared before the Planning Board on June 27th of last year for an advisory opinion back to the Zoning Board for
pending variances. The Board’s opinion is attached.
We request approval of this application by Administrative Action.
Since that time and after receiving comments from the public and the Board, the applicant has decided to simplify
and revise the application to adjust the lot line between two lots instead of three, which would not require area
variances.
The small lot to the north would remain as it exists and would not be part of the application. The applicant plans on
building a single-family unit on the lot meeting current bulk and area requirements. The lot lone between the
remaining two lots would be moved to the north and both lots would meet the zoning requirements for two-family
structures.
The applicant agrees to propose access for the lots on the alley with one driveway entrance for each lot as
suggested in the opinion. The last two points no longer apply since the lots now meet the width requirement and
Lot A (the small lot to the north), will be left as it exists with one unit instead of the originally proposed two.
We have also sent these plans to the engineering department prior to submitting this application to confirm their
approval of the layout of the infrastructure, which they have done.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Best Regards,
David R. Carr, Jr., RLA, ASLA
