Re: Townhouse division of Ownership for 1306 and 1308 Violet Street
(Section “H” Subdivision, Block 232, Lots 5 and 6)
Dear Mr. Quest:
As we have discussed on several occasions, division of ownership of your Two-family Dwelling
into fee-simple ownership is permitted by the City’s Land Development Regulations, subject to
meeting applicable Building Codes. Don Ford would certainly be able to advise you in this
regard.
Please bear in mind, however, that division of ownership does not constitute a division of land
into new lots. Your Violet Street property consists of two platted Lots of Record that have been
developed as a single Development Parcel. In order for the property to again be used as two
separate lots, in the case that future owners wished to construct a single-family residence on one
or both of the lots, the existing Two-family Dwelling would have to be demolished or modified
such that setbacks and other requirements for a single-family dwelling were met one each lot.
I have enclosed a copy of the regulations that specifically address this issue. Please feel free to
call me at 247-5826 with any further questions.
Sincerely,
Sonya Doerr, AICP
Planning Director
