    Walton lot zone change, 794 W. 1000 North Circle (0.58 acres)

    Recommended for approval · 6-0

    Andrew and Tamara Walton bought the lot to build a home and found that a lot-line adjustment recorded two or three owners earlier, made to accommodate a neighbor's barn, left it smaller than RA-1 allows. Planner Cody Opperman said the original triangular lot should have stayed a 1-acre RA-1 lot and the land was divided without city review, creating non-conforming parcels; the Residential Low Density land use already fits R1-12,000, which adjoins to the west. An amended final plat will be required to legalize boundaries and likely consolidate three parcels to the east into one RA-1 lot. Neighbor Mark Hampton, who owns those eastern parcels, said the informal adjustments were made with the original developer's agreement without realizing they broke subdivision law, and apologized.
