Subject: RE: question
Sarah, you should have this from all of the stuff I have previously given you, but the following is from the subdivision regulations and has been in effect for many, many years.
The 5000 square feet lot is a minimum that recognizes existing lots that were created when the older portions of the City as legal lots of record. New lots, regardless of which process
they are created by must: have a width of less than seventy-five (75) feet at the Building Restriction Line, or shall it contain less than seven thousand, five hundred (7,500) square
feet.
Also, remember your property is in the Low Density Comprehensive Plan designation, and even if a 5000 square feet lot was permitted per zoning, it would not meet the Comp Plan limit.
Sec. 24-255. Lots.
(a) General. Lot size, width, depth, shape and orientation, and the minimum Building Setback lines shall be appropriate for the location of the Development and for the type of development
and Use proposed. Lot arrangement and design shall be such that all Lots shall provide satisfactory and desirable Building sites. Minimum sizes for Lots shall be as set forth within
the applicable Zoning District requirements. Unless expressly provided for within this Chapter, no residential Lot created after the initial effective date of these Land Development
Regulations shall have a width of less than seventy-five (75) feet at the Building Restriction Line, or shall it contain less than seven thousand, five hundred (7,500) square feet unless
approved as part of a Planned Unit Development.
(b) Dimensions. Lot dimensions shall conform to the requirements of Article III of this Chapter, and the depth and width of properties reserved or laid out for commercial and industrial
purposes shall be adequate to provide for the off-Street service and parking facilities required by the type of Use and Development proposed.
(c) Residential Corner Lots. Corner Lots for residential Use shall have extra width, greater than a corresponding interior Lot, to accommodate the required Building Setbacks from any
orientation to both Streets.
(d) Street access. All Lots shall be provided with satisfactory and permanent access to a paved public Street. No new Lot shall be created, which prohibits established access or reasonable
access to an Abutting Property.
(e) Double frontage Lots. Creation of new residential Lots having double Street frontage shall be avoided.
(f) Building Restriction Lines. The Developer shall establish Building Restriction Lines in accordance with approved Final Subdivision Plat, and such Building Restriction Lines shall
be shown on the recorded Plat.

Subject: question
Sonya - I note that Sec. 24-108 states that the minimum size of a single family lot is 5,000 square feet. Where in the zoning code does it provide that newly created lots must be 7500
feet? I can't find it.
As always, thanks for your help.
Sarah
