Overview
The Cottons are proposing to subdivide their property into 2 single family lots.
The property currently has a single family house, detached garage, a storage
shed and a horse barn. The residence and accessory structures are located on the
south side of the parcel about 150 feet back from Tyler Street.

Dimensional requirements
The two lots comply with the dimensional and lot size requirements set forth in
the Rla zoning district. The survey shows that both parcels will comply with the
minimum lot size requirements even though the area included in the right-of-
way for Tyler Street has not been included in the lot size calculations. However,
since the existing buildings are not shown on the survey, it is not possible to
determine if the setback requirements are met. The apphcant should show on
the survey the location of the existing structures.
Right-of way and Easements
The survey shows a 33 foot half right-of-way for Tyler Street. In order to
accommodate future improvements to the street, a 40 foot half right-of-way is
necessary. This will require an additional 7 feet of right-of-way be granted to the
city shghtly reducing the size of parcel 1, but the required 2 1/2 acres can be
adjusted for by revising the proposed property hnes.
Drainage and utility easements are required on the property lines and along the
right-of-way for Tyler Street. The survey will have to be revised to show
easements along all existing and proposed property lines as well as along the
right-of-way for Tyler Street.
It also appears that there is a NSP transmission line located near the northeast
corner of the property. If the easement associated with this transmission line is
on the Cotton's property, it should be shown on the survey.
Park and Recreation Commission Recommendation
The Park and Recreation Commission has recommended a cash dedication in
heu of land to satisfy the park dedication requirements for the one new lot that
is being created.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council approve the request by Brent and Janet
Cotton for an administrative subdivision to subdivide 9.98 acres into two
residential lots with the following conditions:
A grant of easement be prepared and executed granting an additional 7
feet of right-of-way along Tyler Street. The additional 7 feet shall apply to
both parcels included in the subdivision
o
Payment of park dedication fee in the amount of $550 for the new lot
being created to be paid prior to recording the administrative subdivision.

o
Payment of surface water management fee in the amount of $61.80 for
the new lot being created to be paid prior to recording the administrative
subdivision.
The existing structures and setbacks be shown on the survey of the
subdivision.
If the NSP transmission line easement is on the property, it needs to be
shown on the survey of the subdivision.
o
Five foot drainage and utility easements be shown on both sides of all
existing and proposed property hnes and a 10 foot easement along Tyler
Street.
